mstevens Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Took Taurine capsules some time back for gallbladder issues. It was part of a protocol including milk thistle, choline and TUDCA and the gallbladder issue (suspected to be gallbladder sludge) cleared up.

save the frogs Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Taurine is found in meat. Might be better to eat meat daily than to supplement with Taurine powder. Taurine may protect against heart disease https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2813349 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
save the frogs Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 maybe collagen powder is a more useful supplement since it's difficult to get collagen from food. but i don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBChiangRai Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I bought a large bag on aliexpress, I take it sometimes, not every day. Along with Curcumin & Piperine, Resveratrol, and lastly Nicotinamide Ribaside. All powders bought on AliExpress. Be awarem Nicotinamide Riboside has been linked with increasing metastasising of cancers. Taurine is currently undergoing a few clinical studies for life extension.

Yes way better. I take powders. Way more energy. Animal fats and meat takes 6 hours to absorb. Powders 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are still taking NR despite the cancer linkage...I've been taking NMN instead (early morning), and also Taurine later in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, protein is used to rebuild muscle. But it takes whatever time it takes to absorb. As muscle-building is a complex process and I'm not convinced all foods need to be absorbed instantaneously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why bodybuilders take them. Taurine is in some Red Bull but not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

novacova Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 16 hours ago, bignok said: Anyone tried it? Yes, wouldn’t recommend it, these type of supplements are taxing on the body and especially the kidneys concerning taurine. If you’re looking to get amped out energy, then go on a 100% raw food diet including fish. Within a couple weeks you’ll be kicking butt like a 20yo.

The human body uses taurine for actions in cells. One example is that taurine is used for energy production. Taurine also helps the body process bile acid and balance fluids, salts and minerals, among other actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
