GENERAL: Life span extension of 10-12% in mice (Taurine deficiency as a driver of aging, 2023 ) Reduced cellular senescence, protected against telomerase deficiency, suppressed mitochondrial dysfunction, decreased DNA damage, and attenuated inflammation. Improved overall health span including bone, muscle, brain, pancreas, fat, gut and immune health. Blood Taurine levels are associated with better health outcomes like lower obesity, inflammation, diabetes in 12,000 older European adults ( 2023 ) Physical performance : Supplementation (1-3 g/day) appears effective for improving aerobic performance (VO2max, time to exhaustion), anaerobic performance (power, strength), recovery (decreased muscle damage), and metabolic markers (lower lactate, creatine kinase, phosphorus, inflammation; increased fat oxidation) (Taurine in sports and exercise, 2021 ) METABOLIC HEALTH: Significantly reduced blood pressure and improved endothelial function in humans with metabolic disorders (meta-analysis, ...
