This study examined whether nattokinase monascus supplements could effectively lower cholesterol levels in people facing dyslipidemia. In a randomized trial with 113 participants, we noted significant reductions in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and similar lipid markers after 120 days of using the supplements compared to a placebo.
However, we didn't see any notable improvements in triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, or carotid intima-media thickness. Importantly, participants experienced no major side effects from the treatment. Overall, while nattokinase supplements showed promise for some cholesterol levels, they did not deliver significant changes in all examined lipid factors.

Nattokinase affects hemostatic factors
We explored how nattokinase supplementation affects cholesterol levels and related hemostatic factors in individuals with high cholesterol. In a study with 100 participants, we divided them into nattokinase and placebo groups to monitor their responses over eight weeks.
We found that while there were no significant differences in initial measurements, those taking nattokinase showed notable increases in collagen-epinephrine closure time and activated partial thromboplastin time. However, these results indicate effects on hemostatic factors rather than a direct benefit to cholesterol levels.
In summary, while nattokinase appeared effective at influencing certain blood measures, it did not significantly improve overall cholesterol management.

Thinned blood

My father has had thick blood due to high cholesterol and blood clots for years. After developing diabetes post-Covid, he faced more challenges. I ordered this highly rated Nattokinase supplement for him, and within a month, he noticed his blood becoming much thinner. His blood pressure is also normalising after a long struggle with it. He is extremely pleased with the results and highly recommends this product.

I use nattokinase to improve my blood fluidity, addressing my thick blood caused by high cholesterol, which elevates my pressure and clot risk. I take it in the evening and on an empty stomach in the morning. Since using it regularly, I have forgotten about my blood pressure issues.

Aspirin alternative

Nattokinase is a potent fibrinolytic enzyme, absorbed into the bloodstream to enhance fluidity. It’s recognised for its effectiveness in preventing and treating cardiovascular issues. It comes from Natto, a specific strain of bacteria enhances its benefits. Regular consumption of Nattokinase could reduce blood viscosity and is a safer alternative to aspirin, with no side effects detected over 20 years.
