Take just 2 soft capsules daily with water. The odor-free formula makes it easy to maintain consistent supplementation.

Quality Assured

Manufactured by Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, a trusted Japanese pharmaceutical company. JNKA-certified nattokinase meets strict quality standards.

Japanese Heritage

Combines traditional Japanese wisdom of natto and fish nutrition. Japan's sakana-natto approach supports cardiovascular wellness through time-tested ingredients.

Best For

Adults seeking to support healthy blood circulation, those who dislike natto's taste or smell, and people wanting convenient cardiovascular support.

Market Leader

Japan's No.1 nattokinase supplement brand by sales. The Nattokinase Series has earned widespread trust among Japanese consumers.

Why It Works

Benefits

Nattokinase EX delivers comprehensive cardiovascular support through seven carefully selected ingredients working together.

1

Supports Healthy Blood Circulation

Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme derived from natto that supports the body's natural processes for maintaining healthy blood flow. The 2500FU per serving works with your body's tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) to support smooth circulation throughout the vascular system.

JNKA-certified enzyme
2

Promotes Cardiovascular Wellness

The combination of EPA (13mg) and DHA (72mg) from refined fish oil supports healthy blood lipid profiles and overall vascular function. These omega-3 fatty acids complement nattokinase's circulatory benefits for comprehensive cardiovascular support.

Research-backed ingredients
3

Helps Maintain Healthy Blood Pressure

Sardine peptides containing valytyrosine work by supporting healthy ACE enzyme activity, helping maintain blood pressure within normal ranges. Combined with tochu leaf extract's geniposidic acid, this formula supports vascular flexibility.

Functional ingredients
4

Convenient Natto-Free Solution

Unlike eating natto directly, this supplement provides nattokinase without odor or taste, with vitamin K2 removed during manufacturing. This makes daily supplementation simple and suitable for those who dislike natto or take certain medications.

The Science

How It Works

Understanding how Nattokinase EX supports your cardiovascular system through multiple pathways.

Nattokinase + Fish: Two Traditional Components

Nattokinase + Fish: Two Traditional Components

Nattokinase EX is built on the sakana-natto concept—combining the health benefits of both natto (fermented soybeans) and fish that have supported Japanese health for generations.

Key benefits:
  • Extracts nattokinase from natto's sticky fermented portion
  • Adds EPA and DHA from fish oil
  • Provides cardiovascular benefits of both traditional foods
Nattokinase Fibrinolytic Support

Nattokinase Fibrinolytic Support

The purified nattokinase enzyme (2500FU per serving) supports the body's natural fibrinolytic system.

Unlike fresh natto:
  • Consistent enzyme activity
  • Vitamin K2 removed
  • Works with your body's tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA)
Seven Synergistic Ingredients

Seven Synergistic Ingredients

Beyond nattokinase, the formula includes:

  • EPA and DHA from refined fish oil supporting healthy lipid profiles
  • Sardine peptides (iwashi peptide) with valytyrosine for blood pressure support

Ingredient Research Highlights

NATTOKINASE

Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme discovered in natto (fermented soybeans). Research suggests it may support healthy blood flow by working with the body's natural fibrinolytic processes. The Japan Nattokinase Association recommends 2000FU or more per day.

Japan Nattokinase Association guidelines
EPA & DHA

EPA and DHA are omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil. Research indicates they support healthy blood lipid profiles and cardiovascular function. These are essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce on its own.

Omega-3 fatty acid research
SARDINE PEPTIDES

Sardine peptides contain valytyrosine, which has been studied for its potential to support healthy blood pressure by influencing ACE enzyme activity. These peptides are derived from sardines through enzymatic processing.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

A nattokinase supplement provides the fibrinolytic enzyme naturally found in natto (fermented soybeans) in convenient capsule form.

Nattokinase supports the body's natural processes for maintaining healthy blood circulation. This supplement delivers 2500FU of purified nattokinase with vitamin K2 removed for broader compatibility.
Those taking anticoagulant medications (blood thinners) like warfarin or antiplatelet drugs should consult their healthcare provider before use.

While vitamin K2 is removed from this formula, nattokinase may enhance anticoagulant effects. Individuals with bleeding disorders, those scheduled for surgery, and pregnant or nursing women should also seek medical advice first.
No, they are different compounds. Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme that supports blood circulation, while vitamin K2 is a vitamin involved in blood clotting and calcium metabolism.

Natural natto contains both, but this nattokinase supplement has vitamin K2 removed during manufacturing, making it suitable for those who need to avoid vitamin K.
Each 2-capsule serving provides nattokinase equivalent to 2 packs of natto without the distinctive odor or taste.

Plus, this supplement includes synergistic EPA, DHA, sardine peptides, and tochu extract not available in plain natto. The vitamin K2 has also been removed, and enzyme activity is consistent—unlike fresh natto which can vary.
This product delivers 2500FU at manufacturing time, meeting Japan Nattokinase Association standards which recommend 2000FU or more daily.

This concentration equals approximately 2 packs (100g) of commercial natto, providing a clinically-studied dosage for cardiovascular support.
Nattokinase enzyme activity begins within 4-8 hours after ingestion, supporting circulation immediately.

However, optimal cardiovascular benefits typically manifest with consistent daily use over 4-12 weeks as ingredients work cumulatively.
Nattokinase EX is formulated for continuous daily use. Safety studies confirm long-term consumption is well-tolerated.

Many users maintain regular supplementation as part of ongoing cardiovascular health maintenance routines. Always follow recommended dosage and consult healthcare provider if concerned.
No refrigeration required. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.

The purified, encapsulated nattokinase remains stable at room temperature throughout the product's shelf life.
