Ann, Thanks for this important information. It is important to stress that eating fresh (not previously frozen) natto is far more protective than nattokinase pills. Nyrture.com is a high-quality fresh brand available nationwide. I recommend serving with a tiny dab of Eden mustard. Eden uses apple cider vinegar and not cheap harsh white vinegar in their mustards.

Ann, I'm very skeptical of pills, even "natural" ones. For the same reason fermented soy products like natto and tempeh are healthful, but isolated soy protein can be a toxic food product, nattokinase pills should be used with caution. Your mother is right! Eat the real thing!

I love it, too! I love walking around at different times of year and seeing what I use as herbs growing in nature just as they're needed.
