Clinically Studied Benefits (with research)
β’ Supports Healthy Blood Pressure β In a 12-week randomized trial (n=120) in adults with high-normal BP, 1.6 g/day taurine reduced clinic SBP/DBP and 24-h ambulatory BP vs placebo.
(NIH/PubMed β Sun Q, 2016)
β’ Cardiovascular Function (Adjunct) β Meta-analysis of RCTs reports taurine can improve left-ventricular ejection fraction and NYHA class in heart-failure subgroups; individual small RCTs show improved exercise capacity.
(NIH/PMC β Tzang CC, 2024)(NIH/PubMed β Beyranvand MR, 2011)
β’ Glycemic Markers (Type 2 Diabetes) β Systematic review/meta-analysis of RCTs shows reductions in HbA1c, fasting glucose, and HOMA-IR with taurine supplementation.
(NIH/PMC β Tao X, 2022)
β’ Exercise Performance (Acute) β Human trials (run/cycle) report modest improvements in time-trial or severe-intensity tolerance after acute taurine dosing; findings vary by dose/protocol.
(NIH/PubMed β Balshaw TG, 2013)(NIH/PubMed β Waldron M, 2019)(NIH/PMC β BuzdaΔlΔ± Y, 2022)
β’ Inflammation & Lipid Markers (HF populations) β In patients with heart failure, taurine around exercise reduced inflammatory markers and improved selected hemodynamic parameters.
(NIH/PMC β Ahmadian M, 2017)
Additional Studies Showing Promising Benefits*
β’ Metabolic Syndrome Risk* β RCT meta-analysis reports taurine favorably modifies MetS-related parameters (e.g., BP, lipids, glycemia).
(NIH/PMC β Tzang CC, 2024)
β’ Visual/Retinal Biology* β Evidence for retinal protection is strong in deficiency and preterm contexts; adult clinical outcomes remain limited.
(Cochrane β Preterm/Low Birth Weight, 2007)(NIH/PMC β Castelli V, 2021)
University Studies
β’ Blood Pressure β 12-week RCT in prehypertension/high-normal BP showed 1.6 g/day taurine lowered clinic and ambulatory BP.
(NIH/PubMed β Sun Q, 2016)
β’ Heart Failure Exercise Capacity β Randomized, placebo-controlled trial improved treadmill performance after 2 weeks taurine (500 mg TID).
(NIH/PubMed β Beyranvand MR, 2011)
β’ Exercise Performance β Acute taurine improved severe-intensity tolerance/critical power or time-trial in several small trials; results are protocol-dependent.
(NIH/PubMed β Waldron M, 2019)(NIH/PubMed β Balshaw TG, 2013)
Global Evidence & Authoritative Reviews
β’ Cleveland Clinic β Taurine overview: functions, safety considerations, and consumer guidance.
(Cleveland Clinic β Taurine)
β’ Cochrane β Systematic review on taurine in preterm/low-birth-weight infants (safety/biologic roles; no growth benefit).
(Cochrane Review β 2007)
β’ Peer-Reviewed Meta-analysis (Open Access) β Taurine and metabolic syndrome parameters across RCTs (open access on PMC).
(NIH/PMC β Nutrition & Diabetes, 2024)
