Anyone ever tried nattokinase to lower hematocrit?

[QUOTE="JoeJ0eyJoeJoe, post: 196132, member: 2818"] For me the nattokinase did not have a noticeable effect on hemoglobin/hematocrit values in lab results. I have taken it for several years (2000 FUs daily) due to concerns about high levels and felt that it, along with omega-3 and low-dose aspirin would help prevent any complications of clotting that may occur with the higher viscosity blood. I stopped the aspirin a couple of years ago due to minor erosions observed in my duodenum. Also I bled easily with the aspirin and subq injections too often resulted in bruising. I have read that nattokinase not only lowers the viscosity but also helps to reverse plaque. I don’t know the science or truth behind that but trusted the source where I read it. (Here maybe? [URL="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6043915/"]Nattokinase: A Promising Alternative in Prevention and Treatment of Cardiovascular Diseases[/URL]). My HRT physician says my levels (hovering around 52ish) are similar to that of people who live in high altitudes and there is no higher incidence of clotting in those populations. Erythrocytosis is the term he uses, which is not the same as, or dangerous as, polycythemia at the numbers in my lab results. He says RBC count is high, but not the cell mass, and also I don’t have elevated platelet counts or WBC. Suggests I stop worrying, but it’s ok to take the supplements. ♂️ [/QUOTE]
