This sticky food is Japan's longevity secret

There's a real reason people in Japan tend to outlive us, and it comes down to this sticky little food that most Americans would have never even touched. It's called natto— fermented soybeans— and the magic is an enzyme inside called nattokinase. Nattokinase is a natural clot buster. It breaks down the sticky fibers that make your blood clump and clog, so everything flows easier. In one year-long study, the plaque in people's arteries dropped by more than a third in a single year. And in the lab, It dissolved 84% of the tiny clots in blood in just 2 hours. That matters because those are the exact type of clots that sit behind most heart attacks and strokes. It also helps relax your blood vessels to support healthy blood pressure and circulation. And because it's fermented, it doubles as a natural probiotic that feeds the good bacteria in your gut. And on top of that, natto is the single richest food source of vitamin K2, which pulls calcium out of your artery walls and puts it back into your bones where it belongs. And make sure to follow because I share stuff like this every single day.
