Nattokinase
Buy Nattokinase – Standardised Enzyme Products from Fermented Natto
Nattokinase is an enzyme produced during the fermentation of cooked soybeans with the bacterium Bacillus subtilis (natto) – the traditional Japanese food natto. As a protein-splitting enzyme, nattokinase belongs to the Enzymes group. In this category, you'll find nattokinase products from Scheunengut – standardised to a defined activity level, vegan and lab-tested.
Origin & Production
Nattokinase is obtained from fermented natto. After fermentation, the enzyme is isolated and purified, resulting in a concentrated raw material with a consistent content.
Standardisation & Format
The activity of nattokinase is stated in FU (fibrinolytic units) – high-quality raw materials often show 20,000 FU/g. Nattokinase is usually offered as capsules, often enteric-coated to deliver the enzyme where it's needed. It is occasionally combined with other enzymes such as Bromelain.
What to Look for When Buying
- Standardised, transparently declared FU value
- Origin from cleanly fermented natto
- Vegan, without unnecessary additives
- Independently lab-tested quality

Häufige Fragen zu Nattokinase
What is nattokinase and where does it come from?
Nattokinase is a protein-splitting enzyme that forms during the fermentation of cooked soybeans with the bacterium Bacillus subtilis – the process behind the traditional Japanese food natto. After fermentation, the enzyme is isolated and purified. This creates a concentrated raw material with consistent content for high-quality food supplements.
Why are people interested in nattokinase?
Nattokinase is a naturally fermented enzyme with its origins in traditional Japanese natto – a food that has been valued for centuries. People turn to nattokinase supplements when they want to add this characteristic enzyme in a standardised, consistent activity, without having to eat intensely flavoured natto every day.
What does the FU value mean for nattokinase?
Nattokinase activity is stated in FU (fibrinolytic units) – this figure is decisive for quality. High-quality raw materials often state 20,000 FU/g. So when buying, don't just look at the milligram amount – pay attention above all to the declared FU activity per serving.
What form is nattokinase available in?
Nattokinase is usually available as a capsule, often gastro-resistant, so that this sensitive enzyme is released in a targeted way. Our nattokinase is standardised to a defined activity value, vegan, and lab-tested. Follow the recommended intake and look for a transparent FU declaration.
