Taurine is found in large quantities only in animal products, and also in small quantities is synthesized independently inside the body, but this process is quite long. With age, with regular physical activity or with special diets, its amount is extremely limited. Therefore, it is recommended to supplement the diet with specialized supplements. This includes Olimp Taurine.
Description of the active substance
Taurine is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine. By itself, this substance is not a building material for muscle cells, but at the same time it is included in almost all brands of sports nutrition. It acts as an excellent conductor for many of the micronutrients needed to maintain musculoskeletal health. So, under its influence, potassium, magnesium, calcium and sodium are absorbed into cells faster, their stability and the degree of assimilation increase. Taurine works in many ways similar to insulin, which increases glucose performance and accelerates amino acid metabolism in muscle tissue.
