WHAT DOES IT DO?
According to the manufacturer:
Reprinted with permission of Life Extension.
"Studies indicate that excess fibrinogen is a strong predictive factor of mortality.70,71 It has been suggested that plasma fibrinogen levels are closely and independently associated with the risk of silent cerebrovascular lesions72,73.
Life Extension has determined that optimal fibrinogen levels should range between 215 and 300 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) of blood. Fibrinogen Resist provides targeted nutritional support for those seeking to maintain blood fibrinogen levels in healthy ranges. This formula offers a unique combination of enzymes and antioxidants that support cardiovascular health.
Each capsule of Fibrinogen Resist provides NSK-SD nattokinase, the most bioactive form of this enzyme available. Nattokinase helps to maintain healthy fibrinolytic activity and clotting function and promotes healthy circulation and blood flow. Also included is Enzogenol, a pine bark extract that has demonstrated antioxidant and fibrinogen-managing effects. In a study of smokerswho typically have elevated fibrinogen levelsthe combination of Enzogenol and vitamin C significantly helped normalize fibrinogen levels.74"
