BioStacksWhy Taurine for Muscle
Taurine is a supporting nutrient for muscle support. Dozens of RCTs and multiple meta-analyses across cardiovascular, metabolic, and exercise domains. Landmark 2023 Science paper on aging/longevity (debated by 2025 follow-up). Proposed safe at up to 3 g/day; clinical trials have used up to 6 g/day without issues.
Effective dosing
Most evidence supports 1000–3000 mg of taurine daily. General supplementation 1–3 g/day. Cardiovascular RCTs used 1.6 g/day; heart failure trials used 2–4 g/day. Products below this range may not deliver meaningful results.
