Dietary supplement Stark Pharm - Stark Taurine is a free form of the amino acid taurine, promotes rapid absorption and assimilation of carbohydrate-containing foods, especially disaccharides. Enhances the effect of taking other sports nutrition products, performing a transport function.
Nervous system
Taurine has a neuroprotective (protective effect on the brain) effect of taurine. With its complex use with drugs that improve cerebral circulation, patients with brain lesions improve cognitive functions (higher brain functions: memory, attention, psychomotor coordination, speech, counting, etc.).
Helps to eliminate neurotic symptoms and vegetative disorders.
Recently, it has been established that in the brain, taurine plays the role of a neurotransmitter amino acid that inhibits synaptic transmission. In a large dosage - inhibition of nervous processes, sedative, anticonvulsant effect. In small ones - stimulating (included in Bull energy drinks).
Taurine relieves stress and muscle tension. It restores the energy of nerve cells to such an extent that memory, attention, and mood improve dramatically (anger and irritability disappear).
Decongestant action
Taurine controls the functioning of cell membranes, keeping potassium and magnesium inside the cells, and excess sodium outside. Thus, it acts as a diuretic. But unlike potent diuretic drugs, taurine is not a cellular poison. It does not damage the kidneys.
Taurine is the best remedy for all conditions that need to reduce fluid accumulation, including heart failure and liver disease. Even on those innocuous occasions when you get a little swollen, like after a long plane trip or when your period is approaching, a few doses of taurine will do the trick. This is far more than can be said for pharmaceutical diuretics, which in recent years have been accused of causing the same water retention and tissue swelling that they were originally intended to relieve.
In contrast, the "side effects" of taurine boil down to its additional benefits.
If you take taurine with a break of no more than 6 hours between doses, then another property of this unique amino acid is found - to reduce appetite.
Heart and blood vessels
Taurine has a moderately pronounced direct cardiotonic effect, due not only to the preservation of myocardial energy resources necessary for the contraction process, but also to a direct effect on myocardial contractile proteins, increases the content of ionized calcium in myocardial cells and at the same time prevents overload of mitochondria with calcium ions.
It prevents the excretion of potassium from the heart muscle and therefore contributes to the prevention of heart rhythm disturbances.
Improves blood circulation and prevents thrombosis due to antiplatelet effect.
It has an alpha-adrenergic blocking effect, which is manifested by the vasodilating effect of taurine and its effectiveness in the treatment of prostate adenoma.
Fat, cholesterol metabolism and liver function
The most studied function of taurine is its role in the production of bile salts. The main way the body gets rid of excess cholesterol is by using it to produce bile. Bile is made up primarily of cholesterol, which is produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder.
Bile promotes the absorption of fats, reducing their amount and making it easier for digestive enzymes to process fat.
However, bile is not soluble enough if it is not conjugated, that is, not combined with other substances. In this case, it turns into bile salts. The main conjugating agents are glycine and taurine.
In the presence of taurine, bile remains in a liquid state and is less likely to form gallstones. This is especially important for those who have had their gallbladder surgically removed or whose liver may not be working optimally.
Thus, taurine promotes the synthesis of bile salts and lowers blood cholesterol levels by keeping low-density lipoproteins (LDL, a harmful type of cholesterol) from entering the bloodstream. High LDL levels are a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
Diabetes
Taurine helps our antioxidant defense, strengthens the immune system, and prevents diabetes.
Although type I diabetes and type II diabetes are two different conditions, taurine helps stabilize blood sugar levels in both. In people with type II diabetes, it increases the sensitivity of cells to insulin; in type I diabetes, 1.5g daily taurine results in long-term sugar reduction
muscles
Being a sulfur-containing amino acid, taurine helps to normalize the function of cell membranes and improve metabolic processes.
Taurine as a sports supplement is necessary for the normal functioning of skeletal muscles. This was demonstrated in 2004 in a study on mice genetically deficient in taurine. They had almost complete wasting of skeletal and cardiac muscles.
Cosmetology
Recently, cosmetic compositions containing taurine have been introduced, possibly due to its antifibrotic properties. It also helps keep the skin hydrated.
In Ukraine, taurine is used as part of eye drops for the treatment of degenerative diseases of the retina and penetrating wounds of the cornea, however, research results indicate the need for wider clinical use.
Experiment
In a seven-week experiment, scientists observed the effects of taurine consumption of 3 g per day in thirty overweight students. Part of the group received a placebo. Taurine lowered the level of triglycerides in the blood and improved the atherogenic index (the ratio of LDL to HDL). Taurine increased the production of beneficial lipoproteins (high density).
In addition, students who took taurine showed a positive side effect, namely, a decrease in the amount of subcutaneous fat. Experiments on rats have shown that taurine prevents the accumulation of abdominal fat, considered the most dangerous to health and associated with insulin resistance, heart disease and diabetes.
