So actually just eating natto would be better.

This is why Food First works, right?

If you had K2 and natto kinase, you'd be even better off, but the natto kinase helps break apart blood clots.

So if in some people you might just have a predisposition because you've got systemic inflammation where like you just clot more easily, or you might have someone who's got a genetic defect and the ability to degrade clots.

And so their baseline clotting is higher than normal.

If that's the case, then they're even more likely to get a heart attack or a stroke when the plaque ruptures because their baseline predisposition to clot is higher.

And then on top of that,

If you've got someone with really bad atherosclerosis, they might be clotting all the time.

Every day might be a new day where they could have a heart attack.

And so in both of those cases, natokinase is going to degrade the clots as soon as they occur, and it's going to lower the total clotting.

And the downside risk of that is maybe you bleed too easily if you get cut.

But the upside potential of that is if you're one of the people who are a candidate for any one of these days now, you're going to get a heart attack or a stroke.

Having taken 2,000 IU of natokinase that day may have prevented you from getting a heart attack or a stroke because the clot formed and you degraded it more quickly.

Please.
