Thank you for the article about Nattokinese and cholesterol. I have been taking nattokinese 4000FU x 3/day - 12000FU/day for about an year. Taking also vit D3 5 to 10000IU with 0.5 mg MK-7 per day. Surprise today: my lab showed jump of the total cholesterol to 307, Triglycerides to 221, LDL, VLDL - all higher then last one I'm 70 years and vegetarian diet with no eggs.
I just wanted to share my lab results after 6 months on high-dose nattokinase (10,000 daily), which I started in November 2023. I did not take the additional supplements mentioned in Art's article; K2M7 or grape seed proanthocyanidin extract. Thank you so much, Art, for posting your detailed research on Earth Clinic. I would never have tried this otherwise.
