- What is nattokinase with rutin used for?
- It is marketed for heart and circulation support and antioxidant support. Nattokinase is an enzyme from fermented soy; rutin is a flavonoid found in buckwheat and citrus. Neither is a treatment for heart disease.
- Can I take it with blood thinners?
- Ask your doctor first. Nattokinase can affect clotting, and combining it with warfarin, aspirin or other anticoagulants may raise bleeding risk. The same caution applies before surgery.
- Is it safe if I have a soy allergy?
- Nattokinase is derived from soy, so avoid it if you are allergic to soy unless a clinician says otherwise. Check the label for the full ingredient list.
- How does it compare with a full heart supplement?
- It is narrower. Formulas with CoQ10, omega-3s, magnesium or plant sterols target other aspects of heart health; this one gives you nattokinase plus rutin only.
- How many capsules are in the bottle?
- 60 capsules. Follow the label's serving size, since that determines how long the bottle lasts.
- Where is the The Vitamin Shoppe Nattokinase with Rutin Antioxidant Support cheapest?
- At The Vitamin Shoppe, for $19.99, as of our latest check.
