Primary Active Ingredients & Mechanisms
- L-Taurine 1000mg
- A conditionally essential sulphur amino acid. Stabilises cell membranes, supports electrolyte transport (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium), acts as inhibitory neurotransmitter, and supports bile salt formation. Highest concentrations in heart, brain, retina, and skeletal muscle.
Who is it for?
Plant-based eaters (taurine is found in animal foods only), athletes wanting cardiac and electrolyte support, people working on nervous system calming, and adults with mild cardiovascular concerns.
Why use it?
Taurine is one of the more under-appreciated amino acids, with documented evidence for cardiac, neural, and metabolic support. The 1000mg dose suits flexible titration from 1 to 6g daily.
When to use it
Take 1 to 2 capsules daily with or without food. Evening use suits the calming nervous system effect; morning use suits cardiac and metabolic support.
How to use it
Start with 1 capsule daily, building to 2 to 3 daily as needed. For higher therapeutic doses (cardiovascular, mood support), 3 to 6g daily split across morning and evening.
Pairs Well With
Strategic Cross-Sell
New Leaf Magnesium Glycinate 120 Capsules
Taurine and magnesium glycinate both calm the nervous system through different mechanisms (inhibitory neurotransmission and NMDA receptor blocking respectively). Stacking them is one of the cleanest approaches to sleep and stress support.
