Nattospes is a blend of fermented bacteria Baccilus natto extract, a traditional Japanese food called Natto, and herb Dioscorea (Chinese Yam). Natto has been widely used in Japan for over 1000 years as a folk remedy for heart and vascular diseases. Dioscorea is one of the more widely used tonic herbs in Chinese traditional medicine. This herb has a neutral energy and it is neither hot nor cold, therefore it benefits everybody who takes it. It helps to build strong digestion and metabolism.
Each 100 mg of Nattospes contains 300 units (FU) of all-natural enzyme known as Nattokinase, a product of the fermented bacteria in Natto. Research by Dr. Hiroyuki Sumi and other scientists (1, 2, 3, 4) have shown multiple potential benefits of Nattokinase in supporting cardiovascular disease, stroke, angina, venous stasis, thrombosis, emboli, atherosclerosis, chronic inflammation and pain, peripheral vascular disease, hypertension, tissue oxygen deprivation, infertility, and other gynecology conditions (e.g. endometriosis, uterine fibroids).
Dioscoreae has been traditionally known to replenish the spleen and stomach and to promote fluid secretion and benefit the lung. It has been frequently used for seminal emission, excessive leukorrhea, frequency of urination or diabetes due to deficiency condition of the kidneys.
The combined actions of Nattokinase and Dioscoreae in Nattospes help to promote healthy circulation and metabolism, which are essential for maintaining the body’s healthy balance.
