Taurine
Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that lacks a carboxyl group. In sports nutrition, taurine is used as an energy booster. At small doses, a positive effect on the immune system and metabolic functions is noted. Systematic use of taurine strengthens the cardiovascular system.
Taurine is used in the production of energy drinks: in synergistic action with caffeine or other stimulants, it significantly increases work capacity and mental concentration. It is not difficult to buy taurine in Kyiv. However, novice athletes do not always understand the difference between taurine in powder or capsules. Basically, the difference is only in ease of use. Taurine powder is absorbed a little faster.
Daily physical exertion causes a lot of physiological changes. During each workout, the body spends a lot of resources to perform the task. When recovering after training, much more nutrients and ergogenic substances, as well as building material, are needed. In the case of a deficiency, the body does not regenerate before the next workout, and accordingly it will not be productive for further growth - whether it is volume, strength or endurance. Taurine is present in human tissues: muscles, heart, organs. Deficiency of taurine forces it to be synthesized from other more valuable amino acids , which leads to a loss of balance and brings the athlete closer to a plateau.
In the course of empirical studies, a positive effect of taurine on the psycho-emotional state was revealed. 1-2 UAH of taurine per day allows you to use it as a stress reliever. This statement was confirmed by Japanese and Russian scientists.
The level of taurine directly affects the work of the heart, liver, retina and central nervous system.
Positive features of taurine:
- Normalizes the work of the immune system
- Helps to gain muscle mass
- Increases mental concentration
- Improves productivity and performance
- It has a positive effect on vital organs
Taurine is nothing more than a dietary supplement – it is not a medicinal or medicinal product.
