Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

Beef cheek meat has approximately five times higher taurine content than other parts of the animal, and taurine is associated with beneficial cardiovascular outcomes.

Well SupportedDry cooking methods like grilling and rare to medium-rare meat preserve more taurine than boiling, stewing, or overcooking.

Well SupportedThe human body produces insufficient amounts of taurine for clear benefits, necessitating supplementation.

Well SupportedDesiccated organ capsules can be an option for vegans who have a psychological barrier to consuming fresh organs.

Partially SupportedTaurine supplementation can attenuate the rise in body temperature during exercise, potentially allowing for longer exercise duration.

Well SupportedMagnesium glycinate provides glycine, and magnesium tartrate provides taurine, which may have additional health benefits.

Partially SupportedTaurine supplementation is generally safe, with doses of 1,000 to 6,000 mg per day, and potential GI side effects are a concern at high doses.

Partially SupportedUnlike creatine, taurine does not appear to have a loading effect, and a single dose can be beneficial for performance.

Partially SupportedTaurine activates GABA A receptors and may activate the glycine receptor, potentially providing an anxiolytic effect.

Partially SupportedAnecdotal reports suggest taurine, at doses of 1 to 3 grams per day, can help manage anxiety.

Partially SupportedTaurine supplementation may lead to increased gregariousness and improved social interaction.

Partially SupportedLower levels of taurine have been observed in the brains of individuals with major depression.

Not SupportedDoses of taurine above three grams per day may cause gastrointestinal upset.

Partially SupportedEnergy drinks often contain taurine, which may be added to mitigate the anxiety-inducing effects of caffeine.

Limited ResearchWhether taurine supplementation can extend lifespan or improve quality of life in humans is yet to be determined.
