Hi Thomas, I have reactive hypoglycemia along with nocturnal hypoglycemia. I drop into the 50’s and 60’s when sleeping. The benefits of taurine sounds amazing but what about the hypoglycemic effect??? I also have diet controlled type 2 diabetes. Yeah. Fun times. Lol. Would love to hear recommendations from you or any other subscribers whom may have experience with hypoglycemia. I have several autoimmune diseases and inflammation issues. Thanks
I started taking taurine 2g in the morning (no food), 2g right before gym (7PM) ... it simply made my body less stressed during the gym session, more relaxed after, better sleep ... it is just crazy. My pre-workout routine for almost a year has been beta alanine only (creatine during the day) ... this made a huge difference for me. I wasn't expecting. My perspective is that my body can simply release the signals correctly now. I never had those good hormone releases after a session in a long time ... now, it feels great.
For me now at 76, I've noticed significant change in overall feeling. Been on it for a year now and take 3g x3 per day. First thing in morning with my coffee, then in my gym water bottle and post workout shake.
@psisteak4122 nah you just clearly don't look after yourself. Seriously depresses me when I see negative attitudes like this. I'm living till I'm 120.
Good info but remember he says you’re getting some Taurine naturally through good red meat 🥩… you can adjust dosage based off quality meals planned for day
It's good stuff! I've been taking 1000mg taurine twice daily for about 6 months and I noticed a boost in workout performance almost immediately. It's the real deal. I take quite a few supplements, including several other important amino acids (r-ala, alcar, nac, glycine) as well as some of the usual suspects (vit D/K, vit C, ubiquinol/pqq, omega3, magnesium, vit B3, berberine, B heavy multi). I like to keep dosages toward the lower end of the range because the synergistic impact of many of these supplements is compounded when taken together. It's really easy to over do it with supplements with so many recommendations coming at you constantly and I definitely don't want to overburden my liver with too much intake. I also fast 16-18 hrs per day to give my gut a reset.

@mimig6511 i take all 3 plus ashwaganda. I still have crapy sleep. but then again maybe because i do 5-6 workout days with 15-20k steps a day and OMAD.... I should be veryvery tired to help me with sleep but i guess the cortisol is too high for me
@jahlasam I did this for a while. Got to the point that I started waking up too often and belly fat stopped coming off. I came off fasting for 2 days a week and ate breakfast as soon as I could after working out then cut out larger meals in the evenings. Started sleeping better and feeling a little more at ease. Fasting is definitely a stressor. Especially if you are working out
Twice a day I take taurine because when I had a blood test done I was found to be severely deficient. This is fantastic to learn about all the benefits of taurine. Thank you Thomas!
Good to hear. I just added 1000mg Taurine to my daily longevity stack a month back, and on workout days I additionally take it with a full essential amino acids (all 9) supplement to enhance my lifting. I am definitely noticing a difference in the gym and look forward to tracking long-term benefits.
I heard taurine is mostly found in smaller muscles, like face, tongue, heart muscle, tail, and also in smaller animals and fish. Today we eat larger muscles of a few larger animals so don’t get what we used to get. Similar to how we used to eat bone and skin way more which gave us lots of glycine but today, not so much.
You know, instead of saying "I heard", why not google, find the actual research on your claim and then post. There is a wise saying " Think before we speak".
Huh, those all have low taurine content when compared to seaweed. It contains like 10x more taurine than dark chicken meat and 100x more than light chicken meat.
Got rid of an irregular heart beat by taking Taurine, L-Carnitine, D-Ribose, and Arjuna Bark. It took a couple of months but it really worked. There is quite a bit of information on this combination.
Thanks for this I've actually been taking taurine and arjuna bark plus d ribose. I'll add carnitine. Been having irregular heart beat for awhile im getting better
I’ve had what I think were heart palpitations. I heard Taurine could help. I’ve been taking it for about 5 days and already feel relief. About 90 percent better.

Small nit to pick... there is not a specific cardiac CRP marker, as CRP is a general indication of inflammation produced by the liver. There is HS-CRP which is high sensitivity CRP, which simply means it is measuring the marker at lower concentrations (0.5-10 mg/dL) for earlier detection and that is used cardiac risk assessment. Then there is CRP, which measures at higher concentrations (10-1000 mg/dL) for general inflammation.

I used to workout as a teen, but became extremely exhausted immediately after. I did like to push myself, but something felt off. By 20 I was "diagnosed "with thyroid cancer,and was convinced to have surgery to remove it. Since then, my energy has only gotten worse. I started taking Amino acids to try to regain both mental clarity,and physical energy. I've been looking at Taurine as a miner player, thinking it can be supplied by getting protein and taking its precursors, with intermittent doses of Taurine itself. But with what I'm hearing about all its influences, I'm giving it more importance, and it's showing some promise.⚡😆👍🏻😌👍🏻⚡🥩💪🏻🧬
Me too, two days ago, and the very first day I felt much more les anxiety, like less lack of focus, I felt more present and my brain more quiet, relaxed but no laziness.
Great video! Thanks Thomas. I believe the main reason / underlying mechanism by which Taurine may have so many benefits is the smybiotic relationship it promotes with gut microbial flora. There is some reasearch based evidence that strongly supports that.
I have been using this daily since I first saw the study on it in 2023. My daily dosage is 3k to 5k depending on my routine for the day. Great information thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍😎
I reckon I'll be increasing my daily dosage from 1000, up to 2000 or 3000 mgs. Mid-60's, workout regularly. (between 6-7 days a week, 20-50 minutes each day)
You should definitely up your dosage, given your age. As we get older we become less efficient at extracting and assimilating nutrients from our food. So if you figure you're getting the same amount of taurine from a steak that you got when you were 25, you're mistaken. But the good news is 2-fold. Not only will supplementing with taurine give you the amount you need, but also, one of taurine's benefits is *restoring the body's ability to extract and assimilate nutrients from our food.* Pretty amazing, huh?
My husband and I both take 2000 mg a day and so does our English Mastiff. Dr. Judy Morgan DVM said that our pets are not getting enough of it either. It's an amazing supplement. My husband is 68 and I am almost 64.
KNOW WHY I WATCH THIS CHANNEL over others? 1. BRIEF, TO THE POINT - less adjectives adverbs and blah blah 2. Brief, to the point 3. Brief, to the point
I am an avid watcher of your channel, although a bit of an oddball as I have been a vegan or vegetarian for much of my life since my teen years. However after much research, both reading and viewing research videos, I did try the taurine at a very low dose. Only 500 mg. One time. However the next morning I really needed an orderly to help me cope with the bodily expulsions. I did not take a large dose, and it was taken prior to eating, but the next morning I felt as though I had taken the queen of all purgatives. Could you suggest any helpful tips that might enable me to try again without undergoing such difficulties? I do appreciate your help with this. I have tried to find suggestions for this issue as I do know that there are some persons who also have this type of response from the Taurine. Can you offer some help please? Thank you so much. 🙏
but when eating meat that's been cooked a lot of the nutrients have been destroyed by heat when cooking it I think supplements is a little better way to go to help pull of what's been destroyed or slightly under.
Taurine is nice and is very important. However you can’t increase your taurine levels unless you have a taurine deficient diet/unable to utilise, so you have to supplement or have a higher total amino acid count. Otherwise, it’s pretty much a placebo and is a waste of money. It’s much better to supplement with a high quality protein powder and add that to your diet. Protein powder has all the essential amino acids your body needs, not just taurine. More or less you’ll feel more of the effect, and it’s much more cost effective.
I've been taking Taurine for 10 years to keep my cognition working correctly after large amounts of antibiotics destroyed my gut microbiome. Just be aware that there are studies showing Taurine is damaging to the kidneys over time. I used a bulk variety for around 8 years, it started off as powdery but then the final couple of years it was more crystalline. I developed kidney issues with that crystalline form, which makes sense because the kidneys don't like crystals (like sugar). Once I switched to another brand that was powdery the issues went away. Also be aware that recent studies are pointing to increased likelihood of colon cancer from Taurine usage. So I do intermittent fasting, the occasional 47 or 71 hour fast, and am currently doing one meal per day with moderate healthy fats, moderate protein, and lots of veggies. The regular, ongoing fasting allows autophagy to kick in after 17 hours each day and the low carb, no sugar helps to ensure any damaged or cancerous cells are starved of food and cleaned up. I take 700 mg in the morning and 700 mg at night. Via experimentation over the years that seems to be the minimum amount I can take that provides the benefit I need.
This might sound bonkers!! But as a healer and alchemist I always take note of what I hear from spirit in regards to what elements, herbs, crystals to use to benifit myself. Taurine was mentioned. So there you are. I am adding it to my smoothies daily. X
Wow thanks for this! I literally just got put up on it and I ordered some the other day so it should be getting here I guess tomorrow. I don't have any particular disorders that you're talking about as far as I guess high blood pressure and what not however I do have some 🧠 difficulties
Taurine is GREAT for subtle energy and to avoid sore muscles after exercise (along with B6 in P5P form and magnesium). It is great for eyesight, bile flow and to protect against too much glutamate in the brain. I switch between taurine and DMG. I take maximum 1 gram a day in the morning with my coffee. One day I took 2 grams in one sitting, and I will NEVER do that again. Made me so hyper and felt like I was about to have a heart attack so be wary too. Too much of a good thing. I did notice that particular day, my eyesight was much better in the evening. I might try one day to spread it out and take 2 times 1 gram but I am afraid, it would affect my sleep. I shall see. Women have much more risk of having that heart reaction than men by the way. I need to mention that for me taurine is especially good because I have a very rare LDH deficiency, which causes my muscles to ache VERY badly with too much exercise.
Thanks for an update an Taurine Thomas! I've been taking 200 mg of Taurine at night for a year, and yes, it has definitely given me the Benjamin Button disease 😂 If you didn't get that joke, look up the movie. I take it at night because it does drop blood pressure, and when I took it before the gym, it did not help, it made me feel lazy. So, at night, it can do its work on my muscles, and it helps calm me down for sleep. I have always looked much younger than I am. But since Taurine, it really is like I am looking and feeling younger. Recovery from the gym is like no more DOMS unless I absolutely go to failure. And being 42 and many people mistake me for being in my late 20s? I'll take that! Taurine is not magic, though. You need a healthy diet and exercise, like I am sure if you are on this channel reading this, you are already well aware of that.
I recommend to drink Monster sugar free energy drinks.. each 500 ml can contains 1000mg of Taurine, 80 mg caffeine, guarana, L-cartein and panax ginseng extract. Costing only 1-2 € depending of the country. Comes much cheaper than supplement jars..
Harry Serpanos is the master provider of the knowledge of taurine benefits. Multiple videos for various aspects on which taurine improves things as the No1 master regulator justified with mechanistic studies.
I've been putting about a tablespoon of taurine powder in my morning coffee for the past 2 years or so. I'll be 66 tomorrow and have a big tennis match to play in today so I might take a little extra beforehand. Also, I've been giving it to my dogs. I can't really say if it's helping me or not, but I don't feel any worse for taking it.
Hi Thomas, I have reactive hypoglycemia along with nocturnal hypoglycemia. I drop into the 50’s and 60’s when sleeping. The benefits of taurine sounds amazing but what about the hypoglycemic effect??? I also have diet controlled type 2 diabetes. Yeah. Fun times. Lol. Would love to hear recommendations from you and any other subscribers whom may have experience with hypoglycemia. Thanks Edit: is this a no go supplement for my health conditions?
I’ve taken a range of this supplement from 2000 mg to 6000 mg for the last 25 years. I’ve taken it along with l-Carosine for the same amount of time. I’m almost 60.
Has anyone seen that clip of Andrew Huberman warning about the danger of excessive taurine on the microvascular system? I want to start supplementing taurine but seeing that made me a bit weary. Does anyone have any useful insight on this?
Darn. I didn't see that. I've been taking 1000 a day, but watching this video I was going to up it to at least 2,000 a day and maybe 3,000. Seeing your comment makes me think I shouldn't do that without researching more. Thanks.
I take NAC but heard it's best to take with Glycine. I've also heard glycine is only effective for people over 40. Could you please cover this, and along with NMN and NR?
I've been trying to figure out how to take taurine without falling asleep an hour later, during the day. 1000 mg seems to be my sweet spot. When I get to sleep, it tends to make me dream more. Only drawback, it seems to keep me up at night and put me to sleep during the day.
No,since the capsule contains the powder.The image of capsules in the video is a generic image.Like most people,I take powder.I’ve never seen it in capsules.(at the store).🌺🤗🫠🙃🙂🫶🖖
It would be cool if you could recommend reputable brands when you’re promoting a supplement. For instance; what brand of Taurine are you taking, Thomas? I only see a link for the Seeds product. Thanks in advance.
This all seems very useful as you get older, I'm only 18 and workout very regularly, should I worry about taking taurine yet, or start later down the line when I begin to age?
For now focus only on good sleep,exercise, healthy diet , fasting and meditation.If you take supplements now maybe they will be ineffective for you when you will actually need them at your old years, 70-90 yrs. Wish you a long life .
Taurine is good however it confuses us as thinking it's another caffeine and we get our options for that in the morning. I remember being 20 year old drinking caffeine and taurine energy drink and running on a treadmill 15 kph between 30-45 minutes a good few times thanks to it.
Some sources say Taurine should not be taken with Beta Alanine because they compete for the same transporter. I think this is debunked since elevated Carnisone levels through Beta Alanin ingestion have not reduced Taurine levels or am I wrong? Can they be taken together (and at the same time)?
Also be careful of the additives they put in these supplements. Things like Magnesium Stearate and Silicone Dioxide are flow agents but definitely not good for you.

Not only will supplementing with taurine give you the amount you need, but also, one of taurine's benefits is *restoring the body's ability to extract and assimilate nutrients from our food.* Pretty amazing, huh?
My husband and I both take 2000 mg a day and so does our English Mastiff. Dr. Judy Morgan DVM said that our pets are not getting enough of it either. It's an amazing supplement. My husband is 68 and I am almost 64.
How old is the mastiff and does he look younger?? LOL ! How does it affect you? Love a good bull mastif...so big cuddle to doggo!
Thank for your great content! The information is always enlightening, informative and keep me at the Apple Crate to get something new to try!

DUDE LOVE IT. Your video made my night! Love Longevity ❤
I am an avid watcher of your channel, although a bit of an oddball as I have been a vegan or vegetarian for much of my life since my teen years. However after much research, both reading and viewing research videos, I did try the taurine at a very low dose. Only 500 mg. One time. However the next morning I really needed an orderly to help me cope with the bodily expulsions. I did not take a large dose, and it was taken prior to eating, but the next morning I felt as though I had taken the queen of all purgatives. Could you suggest any helpful tips that might enable me to try again without undergoing such difficulties? I do appreciate your help with this. I have tried to find suggestions for this issue as I do know that there are some persons who also have this type of response from the Taurine. Can you offer some help please? Thank you so much. 🙏
Thank you sir!!! Good info as usual.
What type of Taurine brand do you recommend? Thanks for all the advice.
Amazing for afib too
but when eating meat that's been cooked a lot of the nutrients have been destroyed by heat when cooking it I think supplements is a little better way to go to help pull of what's been destroyed or slightly under.
Hi, how does it work with NMN? Is it redundant if I take them together?
any recommendations on brand of Taurine.
Hell yes, fantastic stuff, hooray TD!
Taurine is nice and is very important. However you can’t increase your taurine levels unless you have a taurine deficient diet/unable to utilise, so you have to supplement or have a higher total amino acid count. Otherwise, it’s pretty much a placebo and is a waste of money. It’s much better to supplement with a high quality protein powder and add that to your diet. Protein powder has all the essential amino acids your body needs, not just taurine. More or less you’ll feel more of the effect, and it’s much more cost effective.
Plus as you mentioned in one of your previous videos it is essential if we are doing prolonged fasting..
Do you take it through out the fast?
I've been taking Taurine for 10 years to keep my cognition working correctly after large amounts of antibiotics destroyed my gut microbiome. Just be aware that there are studies showing Taurine is damaging to the kidneys over time. I used a bulk variety for around 8 years, it started off as powdery but then the final couple of years it was more crystalline. I developed kidney issues with that crystalline form, which makes sense because the kidneys don't like crystals (like sugar). Once I switched to another brand that was powdery the issues went away. Also be aware that recent studies are pointing to increased likelihood of colon cancer from Taurine usage. So I do intermittent fasting, the occasional 47 or 71 hour fast, and am currently doing one meal per day with moderate healthy fats, moderate protein, and lots of veggies. The regular, ongoing fasting allows autophagy to kick in after 17 hours each day and the low carb, no sugar helps to ensure any damaged or cancerous cells are starved of food and cleaned up. I take 700 mg in the morning and 700 mg at night. Via experimentation over the years that seems to be the minimum amount I can take that provides the benefit I need.
7:30 i love that he said "It's not cool"... but not "It's not POSSIBLE" 😂
This might sound bonkers!! But as a healer and alchemist I always take note of what I hear from spirit in regards to what elements, herbs, crystals to use to benifit myself.
Taurine was mentioned. So there you are. I am adding it to my smoothies daily. X
Is it still effective if you get your taurine via magnesium taurate?
Where can i purchase this TAURINE that you suggest.
Yeah the studies on mice were really encouraging for the longevity benefits. I will split dose so I get some in me for the evening👍
Can someone please touch on any potential negatives on supplementing taurine.
Wow thanks for this! I literally just got put up on it and I ordered some the other day so it should be getting here I guess tomorrow. I don't have any particular disorders that you're talking about as far as I guess high blood pressure and what not however I do have some 🧠 difficulties
Where shall i order Taurine please?
Taurine plus NMN=Immortality
What is NMN?
no, NMN=Immortality , Taurine will active mTor, it will make u short live
Taurine is GREAT for subtle energy and to avoid sore muscles after exercise (along with B6 in P5P form and magnesium). It is great for eyesight, bile flow and to protect against too much glutamate in the brain. I switch between taurine and DMG. I take maximum 1 gram a day in the morning with my coffee. One day I took 2 grams in one sitting, and I will NEVER do that again. Made me so hyper and felt like I was about to have a heart attack so be wary too. Too much of a good thing. I did notice that particular day, my eyesight was much better in the evening. I might try one day to spread it out and take 2 times 1 gram but I am afraid, it would affect my sleep. I shall see. Women have much more risk of having that heart reaction than men by the way. I need to mention that for me taurine is especially good because I have a very rare LDH deficiency, which causes my muscles to ache VERY badly with too much exercise.
Thanks for an update an Taurine Thomas! I've been taking 200 mg of Taurine at night for a year, and yes, it has definitely given me the Benjamin Button disease 😂 If you didn't get that joke, look up the movie. I take it at night because it does drop blood pressure, and when I took it before the gym, it did not help, it made me feel lazy. So, at night, it can do its work on my muscles, and it helps calm me down for sleep.
I have always looked much younger than I am. But since Taurine, it really is like I am looking and feeling younger. Recovery from the gym is like no more DOMS unless I absolutely go to failure. And being 42 and many people mistake me for being in my late 20s? I'll take that! Taurine is not magic, though. You need a healthy diet and exercise, like I am sure if you are on this channel reading this, you are already well aware of that.
Yeah I can only take it at night
I hope it doesnt shut down DOMS. i took NAC which did that. Macadamias also did that. My body was literally falling apart, i lost the ability to heal.
@@mark2073This is interesting. How does NAC affect your ability to heal? I take it regularly and this raised an alarm
Thanks for sharing that....interesting you say it makes you tired during day....If it makes me tired at night...well...slam dunk that would be great.
@mimig6511 Hey Mimi. It doesn't make me tired, it makes me like suuuuper relaxed and chill, not good for gym time 💪🏽
I recommend to drink Monster sugar free energy drinks.. each 500 ml can contains 1000mg of Taurine, 80 mg caffeine, guarana, L-cartein and panax ginseng extract. Costing only 1-2 € depending of the country. Comes much cheaper than supplement jars..
The Taurine in those drinks is to offset the jitters from all that caffeine. Not really a good way to supplement Taurine.
@@JCX-9 It might be abuse of Taurine but it still does its charm as antoxidant
@@Vicmot yeah if you want to trust the Taurine they put in that drink sure.
@@JCX-9 There´s just 160 mg of caffeine in one 500 ml can.. it equals to 2 cup of coffee.. not so much..
Harry Serpanos is the master provider of the knowledge of taurine benefits. Multiple videos for various aspects on which taurine improves things as the No1 master regulator justified with mechanistic studies.
How does C-15 and Taurine work on their own and together? Both seem to help promote healthy mitochondria or at least protect.
I've been putting about a tablespoon of taurine powder in my morning coffee for the past 2 years or so. I'll be 66 tomorrow and have a big tennis match to play in today so I might take a little extra beforehand. Also, I've been giving it to my dogs. I can't really say if it's helping me or not, but I don't feel any worse for taking it.
Thanks for this important info! I will get taurine supplements.
Wow convincing stuff!
Hi Thomas, I have reactive hypoglycemia along with nocturnal hypoglycemia. I drop into the 50’s and 60’s when sleeping. The benefits of taurine sounds amazing but what about the hypoglycemic effect??? I also have diet controlled type 2 diabetes. Yeah. Fun times. Lol. Would love to hear recommendations from you and any other subscribers whom may have experience with hypoglycemia. Thanks
Edit: is this a no go supplement for my health conditions?
L-taurine or taurine which one is best?
L taurine
I was literally reading about this yesterday and searching these videos
I’ve taken a range of this supplement from 2000 mg to 6000 mg for the last 25 years. I’ve taken it along with l-Carosine for the same amount of time.
I’m almost 60.
I'm LGBT
@@ArimaSenne1ooof, unfortunate
Has anyone seen that clip of Andrew Huberman warning about the danger of excessive taurine on the microvascular system? I want to start supplementing taurine but seeing that made me a bit weary. Does anyone have any useful insight on this?
Darn. I didn't see that. I've been taking 1000 a day, but watching this video I was going to up it to at least 2,000 a day and maybe 3,000. Seeing your comment makes me think I shouldn't do that without researching more. Thanks.
we will have to get Andrew and Thomas to discuss this online! Was it a recent Huberman pod?

taurine actives mTor, it make you shorter age
@@bq3538 taurine can unactive and active mTOR up to balance in the body.
If mTOR in your body is low, your cell and metabolic is down to fail
Thank you.
I don't have that many windows where I can take supplements. Can I take this at the same time as creatine and citrulline?
That shouldn't be a problem
I take NAC but heard it's best to take with Glycine. I've also heard glycine is only effective for people over 40. Could you please cover this, and along with NMN and NR?
where is a good place I can buy some Taurine supplements?
I've heard Taurine can help Tics and Tourettes...has anyone else heard or tried this?
Amazon
Great video
I am 20 years old can I do intermitted fasting for longetivity
Best place to purchase?
I've been trying to figure out how to take taurine without falling asleep an hour later, during the day. 1000 mg seems to be my sweet spot. When I get to sleep, it tends to make me dream more. Only drawback, it seems to keep me up at night and put me to sleep during the day.
Is powder for better than capsule or doesn't matter Thanks for input
No,since the capsule contains the powder.The image of capsules in the video is a generic image.Like most people,I take powder.I’ve never seen it in capsules.(at the store).🌺🤗🫠🙃🙂🫶🖖
It would be cool if you could recommend reputable brands when you’re promoting a supplement. For instance; what brand of Taurine are you taking, Thomas? I only see a link for the Seeds product.
Thanks in advance.
This all seems very useful as you get older, I'm only 18 and workout very regularly, should I worry about taking taurine yet, or start later down the line when I begin to age?
For now focus only on good sleep,exercise, healthy diet , fasting and meditation.If you take supplements now maybe they will be ineffective for you when you will actually need them at your old years, 70-90 yrs.
Wish you a long life .
Does it work if there is a pound of it sitting in the cubboard for a year w.o taking it? 😅
Taurine supplementation by osmosis.
Are you aware of whether taking citrulline and taurine every day with a few hours of separation is counterproductive or risky?
Can you please tell me what you think or know about Shillajit?
I’ve been recently taking it but only once a day.
no enough research on it
You can look for the 2 active compounds fulvic acid and humic acid.
Taurine is good however it confuses us as thinking it's another caffeine and we get our options for that in the morning. I remember being 20 year old drinking caffeine and taurine energy drink and running on a treadmill 15 kph between 30-45 minutes a good few times thanks to it.
How do you define "longevity" in a short term trial ??
My Turin supplement Bulk Supplement has silicon dioxide in it's Turin. Any ideas how bad this is for someone.
What do you think about qualia senolytic for longevity
I dont want your audience to become “longevity fatigued” but anyways obviously im pumped when you cover it.
What is more beneficial to a late 30s male, taurine or ubiquinol?
Coq10
So is there a good supplement source for Taurine you recommend?
You are funny. Thank you for video👏
Some sources say Taurine should not be taken with Beta Alanine because they compete for the same transporter. I think this is debunked since elevated Carnisone levels through Beta Alanin ingestion have not reduced Taurine levels or am I wrong? Can they be taken together (and at the same time)?
I read that taurine is good against thrombosis
I used this three months ago and having been suffering face acne ever since. It must
Of been an allergic reaction
Could it be hormonal? as Taurine promotes Testosterone.
Also be careful of the additives they put in these supplements. Things like Magnesium Stearate and Silicone Dioxide are flow agents but definitely not good for you.
Can you just get your taurine through Magnesium Taurate?
Any risk of negative effects from Taurine?
"We can't put people in a metabolic chamber for 100 years, it's just not cool." 😂 Hey man, I appreciate your humor even if no one else does.
I will take up to 3 rounded tablespoons for RLS .
Been doing that for a # of years, maybe 5 or 6.
When you make these videos could you add what brands or where to buy the supplements! Please I want to make sure I’m getting the best one available
I looked under more in the description of the video and found he recommended the Seed brand. Also gives a link for buying it.
Been had it in my cabinet
How long to consume, or whole life , how to cycle it .
I'm confused...I read that L-Citrulline is better than Taurine
If I take taurine will my body stop making it?
