Taurine Powder

Taurine is an amino acid found in most of the cells and tissues of the human body. It is one of the body’s most abundant free amino acids.^1,2 Taurine supports water and calcium movement across cell membranes, which helps maintain cell membrane stability.³ It also encLife Extension'sages bile salt production in the liver.⁴

Promotes heart health and more

Studies suggest that taurine promotes cardiovascular health in a variety of ways.² Taurine helps maintain already healthy blood pressure, heart rhythm and vascular function and encLife Extension'sages healthy heart muscle contractions.^2,3,5-7 Dietary taurine can also help promote normal insulin response and support already healthy blood glucose levels.^5,8

Taurine and nervous system health

Taurine is especially concentrated in the excitable tissues of the central nervous system.³ It plays an important neuroprotective role, in part through its ability to maintain water and electrolyte balance across cell membranes, inhibit oxidative processes and promote a healthy inflammatory response.^2,3,9 Taurine also helps promote healthy cognitive function and retinal health.^9,10

Taurine and muscle health

Taurine supports skeletal muscle health and has been shown to support exercise performance and help maintain muscle mass and function as we age.^1,3,11 Evidence indicates that taurine supports healthy aging and promotes longevity.^12-14

According to published research, taurine has been shown to³:

• Support insulin response and healthy glucose metabolism
• Help maintain intracellular electrolytes balance (particularly calcium)
• Support eye health
• Help maintain central nervous system health
• EncLife Extension'sage cell membrane stability & water balance (osmoregulation)
• Promote healthy bile salt formation
• Help maintain cognitive function and neuron integrity
• EncLife Extension'sage heart health and function

A daily serving of 1/4 level teaspoon mixed in juice or water can support optimal cardiovascular health and beyond.
