Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Nattokinase is an enzyme (a protein that speeds up biochemical reactions) that is extracted from a popular Japanese food called natto. Natto is boiled soybeans that have been fermented with a bacterium called Bacillus natto. | [Uses]
Although nattokinase is promoted for use as a fibrinolytic and thrombolytic agent, clinical trials are lacking to support such use. There is also no substantial evidence that nattokinase lowers blood pressure in hypertension. | [Mechanism of action]
Nattokinase decreases the ability of blood to clot. This "thins the blood" and might protect against conditions caused by blood clots such as stroke, heart attack, and others. | [Side effects]
Small, short-term trials evaluating nattokinase reported no adverse reactions. There is a theoretical risk of bleeding, based on a case report of acute cerebellar hemorrhage in a patient with a history of ischemic stroke. Thrombosis was reported after substitution of nattokinase for warfarin in a patient with a mechanical aortic valve. Rare cases of late-onset anaphylaxis with natto have been attributed to poly-gamma-glutamic acid, a product of the fermentation process that may be present in nattokinase supplements. |
