Taurine
Taurine support for vision, liver function, nervous and cardiovascular system
Supplement Facts
For you, if you want to make sure you get enough of one of the most essential substances in the body
The formula of Taurine can:
- Support overall cardiovascular health
- Promote healthy nervous system function
- Support skeletal muscle health
- Encourage optimal exercise performance
The amino acid taurine is known for supporting heart health. But taurine has a range of health benefits, from promoting cell membrane stability to encouraging healthy nervous system function. Taurine may also help maintain already healthy blood pressure and blood glucose levels, promote muscle recovery after exercise, and more.
This product also comes as powder.
Health Benefits at a Glance:
Taurine can support the cardiovascular- and nervous systems and promote cognitive and liver health (encouraging bile salt production in the liver). It can also encourage water and calcium movement across cell membranes, which can help maintain cell membrane stability.
A daily capsule of 1000 mg of taurine can provide multiple benefits. This product also comes as powder.
Why it Works:
Taurine is one of the body’s most abundant free, intercellular amino acids and is produced by the body itself. Produced from the amino acid L-cysteine, researchers have described it as “one of the most essential substances in the body.”
Taurine is found many places in the body but especially in the tissues of the central nervous system, where it appears to play a regulating role.
However, taurine is lacking in many diets and, in case of illness, may not be sufficiently produced by your body. In fact, the levels drop by as much as 80% with age! Therefore, adding this nutrient to your dietary regime, can help restoring youthful taurine blood levels.
According to published research, taurine has been shown to:
- Support insulin sensitivity and healthy glucose metabolism
- Help maintain intracellular electrolytes balance (particularly calcium)
- Support eye/vison health and hearing function
- Help maintain central nervous system health
- Encourage cell membrane stability & water balance (osmoregulation)
- Promote optimal liver function and healthy bile salt formation
- Help maintain cognitive function and neuron integrity
- Encourage heart health and function
- Promote skeletal muscle health
- Boost exercise capacity
- Reduce chronic inflammation
- Help prevent diabetic problems
The Science Behind the Product:
Taurine for Heart Health
Studies suggest that taurine promotes cardiovascular health in a variety of ways. It can help maintain already healthy blood pressure, heart rhythm, and vascular function and encourages healthy heart muscle contractions.
Dietary taurine can also help promote normal insulin response and support already healthy blood glucose levels.
Nervous System Health and Taurine
Taurine is especially concentrated in the excitable tissues of the central nervous system.
It plays an important neuroprotective role, in part through its ability to maintain water and electrolyte balance across cell membranes, inhibit oxidative processes and promote a healthy inflammatory response.
Supplementation with this nutrient can also promote healthy cognitive function, retinal health, and support hearing. It can protect inner ear cells from damage by normalizing the flow of calcium ions they require for proper function.
Muscle Health, Ageing and Taurine
Taurine may support skeletal muscle health and has been shown to support exercise performance and help maintain muscle mass and function as we age.
Evidence indicates that taurine supports healthy ageing and promotes longevity.
