Taurine also helps to promote blood flow.

In fact, we recently discovered that a combination of Taurine and L-theanine has a great synergistic effect with caffeine and you can find this combination of ingredients in our new DynaMAX plus stack!*

It is then of course also no surprise that redbull and other energy drinks famously contain Taurine, because it helps smooth out the effects of caffeine in a similar fashion to L-theanine. This is because Taurine doesn’t seem to directly work on GABAB receptors, instead achieving this effect via its hydrogen sulfide elevating effect! Due to these unique GABAergic properties, it can be a very versatile supplement. In fact, hydrogen sulfide helps upregulate GABAB receptors! This likely also explains why Taurine’s effects on GABAB have been a topic of debate. This effect is quite mild though, and due to this produces a very natural sense of relaxation! Furthermore, hydrogen sulfide, for which Taurine is a donor, also has GABAergic effects. Taurine acts as GABAA agonist, and this is what produces some of Taurine's calming effects. May help promote cardiovascular function*.It is likely responsible for quite a few of Taurine's effects but we will talk more about this later!* Taurine Benefits & Uses Hydrogen sulfide is a very novel gaseous neurotransmitter which is also naturally present in our bodies. This is interesting because Taurine acts as a donor for highly beneficial sulfur compounds in the body, such as hydrogen sulfide. More interestingly though, Cysteine is one of the few sulfur containing amino acids, and because Taurine is derived from Cysteine, Taurine itself is a sulfur containing amino acid. Cysteine is another very important amino acid, and is actually one of the rate limiting steps in reduced Glutathione synthesis. This pathway produces Taurine from Cysteine. Within the body, Taurine synthesis occurs in the pancreas through the ‘cysteine sulfinic acid pathway’. That being said, we still recommend supplementing with Taurine in order to help promote the body’s stores of Taurine because it has some very interesting and beneficial effects when Taurine levels are increased above normal levels!* Taurine is found in most meats, such as fish, poultry, red meats, shellfish and even dairy products. Unlike most amino acids, Taurine is not used to produce proteins so it’s classified as a ‘conditionally essential amino acid’. Taurine is an amino acid that naturally exists in our bodies and in our diets. A milligram scale is needed to accurately measure this product. Transfer scoops are not an accurate form of measurement.
