How it works
In the body, nattokinase has several functions. It acts as a fibrinolytic, which means that it breaks up blood clots. It is also an anti-coagulant, which means that it plays a role in helping prevent blood clots. Lastly, it degrades the spike proteins found in the virus that causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2. However, the degradation is not specific to the novel coronavirus, which means that nattokinase may break down other proteins, too.
Pregnancy
