Frequently Asked Questions

What is nattokinase and where does it come from?

Nattokinase is a serine protease enzyme produced by the bacterium Bacillus subtilis natto during the fermentation of soybeans to make natto (a traditional Japanese food). It was discovered in 1987.

Can I take nattokinase with blood-thinning medication?

Nattokinase is a nutritional supplement and is not a replacement for prescribed medicines. If you take blood-thinning medications, do NOT add nattokinase without consulting your doctor — combining may significantly increase bleeding risk.

Is NOW Nattokinase suitable for people with soy allergies?

Nattokinase is derived from fermented soybeans. However, during production the enzyme is typically isolated from the soy matrix. People with soy allergies should consult their doctor before taking nattokinase supplements. Check the product label for current soy allergen declarations.

When is the best time to take nattokinase?

Take nattokinase on an empty stomach — at least 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal for best absorption. Avoid taking close to mealtime as food proteins may interfere with the enzyme's activity before it reaches the bloodstream.
