THere is only 2000 FUs of Nattokinase per two caps of this product. That seems on the low side if someone is dealing with a spike issue.... I would think 4000 FUs at a min per day, but the therapeutic dose for destroying the spike protein may be 4000s FU three times a day/// Does anyone really know?

I have started on Natto NKCP, mainly due to age + possible spike contamination via shedding. But, in the same paper referenced here it states:

One key question that has not been adequately addressed is the mechanism by which NK is absorbed into the bloodstream after oral administration. There is no current convincing data available to demonstrate the bioavailability and metabolism of NK administered as an oral dose.

In fact, several groups have pointed out that the molecular size of NK is considered to be generally too large for oral absorption through the GI tract. It is recognised that NK may be susceptible to chemical oxidation and subsequent inactivation, or denaturation, in the GI tract. Thus, further studies are required to fully understand the pharmacokinetics of NK.

-Since the molecular weight of the Nk molecule is 28 kDa, yet drug absorbtion of molecules heavier than around 500 Da is poor in the intestinal tract - how does it get into the body???
