WHAT IS TAURINE?
Taurine is a naturally occurring sulfur-containing amino acid that plays a key role in heart and brain health. Our body naturally produces taurine but doesn’t use it to synthesise protein. For this reason, it is considered a semi-essential amino acid.
Taurine supports nerve growth and helps with digestion by producing bile salts in the liver. It is also concentrated in the muscles which makes it important for muscle recovery and strength. Maintaining optimum levels of taurine, therefore, can reduce muscle damage and in turn, post-workout fatigue.
Maintaining taurine levels becomes especially important during periods of illness since immunity falls substantially during this time. While the body produces taurine naturally, its levels may fall during sickness or intense activity. Dietary sources include foods like meat, fish, eggs, seafood, and dairy, among others. Since the majority of taurine sources are animal-based, vegans and vegetarians consume relatively less taurine. This is where taurine supplements can help.
Benefits of Taurine
Taurine has multiple health benefits, but research is being undertaken to confirm the intensity of Taurine benefits on your health. So far, taurine is known to have the following advantages:
-
Supports hydration and electrolyte balance: Taurine plays a vital role in maintaining cellular hydration by regulating electrolyte levels.
-
Aids digestion: By forming bile salts in the liver, taurine helps break down fats like triglycerides and cholesterol, contributing to a healthy metabolism.
-
Enhances nervous system health: Taurine benefits the development and functioning of the central nervous system. Some studies suggest it may protect the brain from ageing and certain neurological conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
-
Boosts immune function: With antioxidant properties, taurine defends cells from oxidative and inflammatory stress leading to a strong immune system.
Some of the taurine’s benefits that are being researched include:
-
Cardiovascular function: Taurine may improve blood pressure regulation, and enhance heart function, potentially lowering the risk of heart disease.
-
Athletic performance: Taurine may improve athletic performance by increasing oxygen uptake, delaying fatigue, and reducing muscle soreness to improve recovery. It may also enhance fat burning during exercise, supporting endurance and strength.
