The benefits of Taurine
Taurine

⭐️Interestingly enough, taurine has many benefits. It has been shown to hydrate muscle cells, reduce muscle fatigue, and increase muscle force by allowing more calcium into the cell to optimize a muscle contraction. Taurine also has been shown to reduce high amounts of oxidative stress that occur during exercise.

This study showed that 7 days of taurine supplementation at 6g/day increase work output and time-to-exhaustion, meaning that athletes were able to train at a higher intensity for a longer duration of time.

#️⃣ I would recommend supplementing with taurine similar to that of creatine. For the first 7-10 to days load taurine at 4-6g/day, then use 2-3g/day for maintenance to keep taurine levels high in the blood!
