HEALTH BENEFITS: A great source of vegan protein; also contains probiotics and enzymes that promote positive digestive health, as well as potassium, calcium, iron, vitamin K, and many other nutrients.
LONG LASTING: Your natto spores can be stored for 6+ months in the refrigerator. Once prepared, store in fridge and consume within a week or freeze for later.
BEAN PROTEIN: Typically made with soybeans, but can also be made with black beans, garbanzo beans, adzuki beans, and more. Keep in mind, smaller beans work best because the center is more easily reached in the fermentation process.
