- Unique enzyme produced from fermentation
- Delivers 2,000 FU per capsule
- Supports healthy blood flow
Nattokinase supports cardiovascular wellness and healthy circulation. If you've never heard of Natto, you're not alone. A staple of the Japanese diet for ages, this fermented soybean dish has remained relatively unknown in the West. The fermentation process produces the unique enzyme Nattokinase. Research suggests that Nattokinase may be an effective dietary approach for supporting healthy blood flow, thereby promoting circulatory and cardiovascular health. Nattokinase activity is measured by the number of "fibrinolytic units" (FU). Swanson Ultra Nattokinase is guaranteed to deliver 2,000 FU per capsule.

FAQ
- What is nattokinase, and how does it support cardiovascular wellness?
Nattokinase is a naturally occurring enzyme produced during the fermentation of soybeans with Bacillus subtilis var. natto. Swanson Nattokinase delivers 2,000 Fibrinolytic Units (FU) of enzyme activity per capsule to support healthy circulation, cardiovascular wellness, and normal blood vessel function as part of a healthy lifestyle. - What does "2,000 FU" mean?
FU, or Fibrinolytic Units, is the standardized measurement used to indicate nattokinase enzyme activity rather than ingredient weight. Swanson Nattokinase is guaranteed to provide 2,000 FU per capsule, allowing consumers to compare enzyme potency between nattokinase supplements with confidence. - How is nattokinase different from natto?
Natto is a traditional Japanese fermented soybean food, while nattokinase is the specific enzyme produced during the fermentation process. Swanson Nattokinase provides a concentrated source of this enzyme in a convenient capsule, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of nattokinase without consuming natto. - Who should consider taking a nattokinase supplement?
Adults interested in supporting healthy circulation and cardiovascular wellness may consider a nattokinase supplement as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Because nattokinase may not be appropriate for everyone, individuals who are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking medications—especially blood-thinning medications—should consult a healthcare professional before use. - Does nattokinase contain soy?
Nattokinase is produced through the fermentation of soybeans with Bacillus subtilis var. natto, the same process used to make the traditional Japanese food natto. During manufacturing, the enzyme is purified, and finished nattokinase supplements may contain little to no detectable soy protein. However, because nattokinase is derived from soy, individuals with a soy allergy or sensitivity should carefully review the product label and consult a healthcare professional before use. Swanson Nattokinase provides 2,000 Fibrinolytic Units (FU) of nattokinase enzyme activity per serving to support healthy circulation and cardiovascular wellness as part of a healthy lifestyle. - Is Swanson Nattokinase suitable for special dietary needs?
Yes. Swanson Nattokinase is non-GMO, dairy free, and gluten free, making it a convenient choice for individuals with a variety of dietary preferences and restrictions. This formula provides nattokinase enzyme activity without dairy-derived ingredients, gluten-containing ingredients, or genetically modified ingredients, helping you support healthy circulation and cardiovascular wellness while staying aligned with your lifestyle choices.
