    What is in it

    Nattokinase is measured in FUs, or fibrinolytic units, which describe the enzyme's activity instead of its weight. 2,000 FUs is the strength most brands use.

    Natto is naturally high in vitamin K2. Doctor's Best says the vitamin K2 is removed during processing, so this product is not a source of K2.

    The other ingredients are maltodextrin, hypromellose (the vegetarian capsule) and magnesium stearate from a vegetable source.

    What the research says. Nattokinase has been studied for circulation and blood pressure in small trials. The results are early, and it is not a replacement for any medicine your doctor has prescribed.

    Who it suits

    • Healthy adults who are not on blood thinning medicine and who have checked with a health professional, as the label advises.
    • Vegans, since the capsule is plant based.

    Who should check first

    • Taking blood thinners: do not use it. This includes warfarin, other anticoagulants and daily aspirin or clopidogrel, unless your doctor says it is fine.
    • Bleeding disorders or a history of bleeding: do not use it without your doctor's advice.
    • Before surgery or dental work: tell your doctor or dentist, and ask when to stop taking it.
    • Soy allergy: do not use it. It contains soy.
    • Pregnant or breastfeeding: do not use it.
    • Everyone else: the label says to consult your healthcare professional before using this product.

    How to use it

    Take 1 capsule daily between meals, or as recommended by your healthcare professional. Do not take more than the label says. Stop taking it and see your doctor if you notice unusual bruising or bleeding.
