Plant Part Used: Bean with Bacillus subtilisl natto
Appearance: Fine yellowish white to off-white powder
Solubility: Soluble in water
Introduction:
Nattokinase (NK) is extracted from food natto or produced by natto bacteria. It is a protein with a molecular weight much smaller than UK, SK and tPA, and can be absorbed by the intestine. The in vitro and in vivo dissolution of natto kinase The properties of the thrombus have also been determined through experiments. At the same time, it is concluded that the in vivo thrombolytic activity of nattokinase is four times that of plasmin. Fibrinolytic activity of blood. Patients at risk of myocardial infarction need to invest 300,000 units of urokinase at a time, and 50 grams of natto contains 800,000 units of urokinase for thrombolysis.
Benefits:
After consuming the extract for 6 hours, the clotting of the subjects' platelets was inhibited. The researchers concluded that nattokinase has the function of dissolving thrombus and smoothing blood flow.
It plays an active role in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular embolism and embolic Alzheimer's disease.
