Taurine 500 mg, 60 caps

An effective amino acid for athletes and overall wellness

Because of taurine's effects, it is used by athletes who want to improve their performance and people who are concerned about the prevention of the cardiovascular system. Taurine is an amino acid that has some mood stabiliser-like effects - with potential anti-mania effects. It also plays an important role in the digestive system - helping to digest and excrete fats from the body.

FEATURES:

- supports post-workout recovery
- preventive effect on the heart
- supports liver function
- accelerates detoxification
- supports fat metabolism
- supports cognitive brain functions without raising blood pressure like caffeine
- supports the glucose-insulin balance
- regulates cholesterol levels in

Taurine inhibits catabolic processes and enables faster recovery after training. In addition, taurine facilitates the transport of creatine, which protects muscle cells from oxidative stress and facilitates the regeneration and growth of muscle tissue.

Taurine also has an effect on the central nervous system. It is a GABA receptor agonist. It can improve concentration and cognitive function in the brain by increasing metabolism in glial cells, the cells responsible for nourishing neurons. In animal models, taurine treatment has been shown to significantly improve functional recovery after traumatic brain injury or ischaemic stroke. Taurine not only has a beneficial effect on neurodegeneration, but may also modulate inflammatory processes.

Taurine may be helpful in regulating blood pressure. Compared to caffeine, taurine even lowers blood pressure levels, which is not specifically the case with caffeine. The stabilising effect of taurine in terms of its ability to increase intracellular potassium concentration, membrane conductance or both plays a role in the context of muscle hyperactivity. Recent studies indicate that taurine is an antioxidant that plays a key role in detoxification, cell membrane stabilisation, osmoregulation, neuromodulation and brain and retinal development.

It supports liver function - even in alcohol-dependent individuals. Taurine protects hepatocytes (liver cells) from oxidative damage, supports detoxification processes and lipid metabolism. Its action contributes to the regulation of cholesterol levels and supports liver health, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the body. It increases the uptake of LDL cholesterol by the liver, which leads to a reduction in plasma cholesterol levels. It also supports the functioning of glucose-insulin metabolism. Taurine supplementation is beneficial in lowering glycaemic indices such as HbA1c, fasting glucose and HOMA-IR - it may improve lipid metabolism and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes.
