About Natto

Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans, renowned for its strong flavor, sticky texture, and distinctive aroma. A staple in Japanese cuisine, it is often enjoyed with rice and a dash of soy sauce or mustard. Rich in nutrients, natto is an excellent source of protein, dietary fiber, and vitamin K2, which supports bone health and cardiovascular function. It contains probiotics, specifically Bacillus subtilis, which promote gut health and enhance digestion. Natto is also rich in antioxidants and a unique enzyme called nattokinase, believed to help improve blood circulation. While highly nutritious, some may find its pungent taste and aroma off-putting. Due to its high sodium content when paired with condiments, moderation is suggested, especially for those with dietary restrictions. Overall, natto is a nutrient-dense food that offers significant health benefits, making it a standout in both traditional and modern diets.
