Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic serine protease extracted from natto (fermented soybeans). It directly degrades fibrin (the structural protein of blood clots) through four mechanisms: direct fibrinolysis, enhancement of endogenous tPA (tissue plasminogen activator) production, conversion of prourokinase to urokinase, and degradation of PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1). It also reduces blood viscosity and may inhibit ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme), providing mild antihypertensive effects.

Combination of bromelain, papain, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and pancreatin. Systemic enzyme therapy that degrades circulating immune complexes, reduces fibrin deposition, modulates cytokines (IL-6, TNF-alpha), and supports recovery from injury, surgery, and chronic inflammation.
