L-Taurine Powder, 300 grams - Life Extension

Taurine is one of the body’s most abundant free amino acids amino acid. It's found in big quantities within your body, especially in the central nervous system, where it appears to play a regulating role. 

However, taurine lacks in many diets and, in case of illness, may not be sufficiently produced by your body.

Taurine can support water and calcium movement across cell membranes, which helps maintain cell membrane stability. It can also encourage bile salt production in the liver.

Taurine can promote 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. 

Taurine also helps promote healthy cognitive function and retinal health. 

Muscle health 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 aging and promotes longevity. 

According to published research, taurine has been shown to: 

• Support insulin response and healthy glucose metabolism 
• Help maintain intracellular electrolytes balance (particularly calcium) 
• Support eye health
• Help maintain central nervous system health 
• Encourage cell membrane stability & water balance (osmoregulation) 
• Promote healthy bile salt formation 
• Help maintain cognitive function and neuron integrity 
• Encourage heart health and function 

A daily serving of 1/4 level teaspoon mixed in juice or water can support optimal cardiovascular health and beyond.
