TAURINE 1000 from Body Attack® is a sulphurous amino acid with
antioxidative and osmoregulative features. It strengthens the muscle cells against free radicals (oxidative stress) and stabilises the energy and fluid balance during and after intensive exertion.
Taurine as a performance-enhancing substance initially became well-known as an ingredient in energy drinks. It was originally isolated from ox bile, from which it also takes its name ("taurus" being Greek for ox or bull).
Today, you frequently find Taurine in energy drinks, because it can noticeably improve your emotional state and brings alertness and vitality.
There are 1,000 mg of Taurine per capsule of Body Attack Taurine 1000.
It performs important functions in the human body. Taurine, for example, regulates calcium influx and the fluid balance of the muscle cells.
More water is also associated with high nutrient influx and this accumulates outside the muscle cells. Taurine can regulate this imbalance and optimises water levels in and outside the cells.
Taurine can create an optimum foundation for maximum power and endurance activities and supports muscle growth processes.
Additionally, Taurine contributes to the formation of bile acid, which is indispensable in digesting fats. Indirectly, therefore, Taurine is part of fat catabolism and can have a positive effect on fat burning. Taurine also binds in combination with bile acid with environmental pollutants, which can then be expelled from the body.
The antioxidant function is particularly interesting for athletes. So-called free radicals are produced through oxidation processes because of various factors, such as stress, nicotine, medication, or even sporting activities.
They can damage our body´s cells and create an imbalance in the organism. Muscle and immune system function can be compromised and this can result in both feebleness and immunodeficiency. Taurine can help to contain the formation of radicals, reducing cell damage.
Studies have also shown that Taurine has an anti-inflammatory effect, which increases immune defence and maintains the body in a physiological balance.
As a nutritional supplement Taurine is often sold in combination with caffeine, as this is known to increase its effects. It sensitises the nerve cells and also has an insulinogenic effect. It is believed to have a positive effect on blood sugar and insulin levels and can improve glycogen synthesis.
Tip: combine Body Attack Taurine 1000 with My Supps Caffeine Caps, for more concentration and improved reaction times in training.
