Einfach gesagt: Taurine supplementation exhibits positive effects on multiple MetS-related factors, making it a potential dietary addition for individuals at risk of or already experiencing MetS.
Tzang CC et al. · Nutrition & diabetes (2024)
Taurine supplementation exhibits positive effects on multiple MetS-related factors, making it a potential dietary addition for individuals at risk of or already experiencing MetS.
Future research may explore dose-optimization strategies and potential long-term benefits of taurine for MetS management.
Einfach gesagt: While individual supplements may offer limited benefits, synergistic combinations may yield greater improvements in performance and comfort.
Li J et al. · Nutrients (2025)
Standardized mean differences (SMDs) and posterior probabilities (P-scores based on Bayesian ranking) were calculated using random-effects and Bayesian models.
Menthol (SMD = -1.83, 95% CI [-3.15, -0.51]; P-score = 71.04%) and taurine (SMD = 0.91, 95% CI [0.08, 1.73]; P-score = 12.75%) demonstrated significant positive effects on endurance.
Menthol energy gel showed the greatest improvement in thermal comfort (SMD = 2.14, 95% CI [1.01, 3.26]; P-score = 99.54%).
5Cognitive functionMeta-Analysen=402 · medium study2025
Einfach gesagt: Overall, the findings of the present meta-analysis do not provide sufficient evidence to support the efficacy of taurine supplementation in enhancing cognitive function.
Cao Q et al. · International journal of food sciences and nutrition (2025)
A total of 7 RCTs with 9 intervention trials involving 402 individuals were included.
Taurine, administered alone or in combination with exercise training, did not exhibit significant effects in cognitive scores.
Overall, the findings of the present meta-analysis do not provide sufficient evidence to support the efficacy of taurine supplementation in enhancing cognitive function.
Einfach gesagt: A three-level random-effects meta-analysis indicated that acute taurine ingestion may be associated with small-to-moderate improvements in overall performance (g = 0.25, 95% CI [0.10, 0.39], I2 = 6...
Deng H et al. · Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports (2025)
A three-level random-effects meta-analysis indicated that acute taurine ingestion may be associated with small-to-moderate improvements in overall performance (g = 0.25, 95% CI [0.10, 0.39], I2 = 61%).
The overall certainty of evidence, assessed using GRADE, was rated low to very low due to heterogeneity, imprecision, and risk of bias.
Collectively, these findings suggest that acute single-dose taurine supplementation holds promise as an ergogenic aid, but its effectiveness likely varies depending on dosage, blinding procedures, and exercise context.
Einfach gesagt: CAF+TAU co-supplementation provides a balanced ergogenic effect, combining the central stimulation of CAF with the neuromodulatory and metabolic support of TAU, particularly beneficial for high-intensity, reaction-based tasks.
Deng H et al. · Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (2025)
Posterior estimates indicated that CAF+TAU was associated with a credible positive effect on anaerobic capacity (g = 0.46, 95% CrI [0.19, 0.71]) and reaction time (g = 0.75, 95% CrI [0.29, 1.18]) compared to CAF or TAU alone.
CAF showed the greatest posterior reduction in RPE (g = -0.64, 95% CrI [-1.20, -0.10]), while its posterior mean estimate suggested a potential increase in B[la] (g = 0.24, 95% CrI [-0.48, 0.96]).
In contrast, TAU showed a possible tendency toward reducing B[la] (g = -0.30, 95% CrI [-1.01, 0.42]).
Einfach gesagt: Long-term taurine supplementation is particularly effective in improving glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in obesity.
Sun Q et al. · Nutrients (2024)
In the subgroup analysis, long-term taurine intake led to BMI improvement in overweight adults (WMD = -1.14 kg/m2, 95% CI: -1.81 to -0.47, p = 0.0008, I2 = 0%).
Meanwhile, improvements in HbA1c (WMD = -0.33%, 95% CI: -0.53 to -0.12, p = 0.002, I2 = 16%) and HOMA-IR (WMD = -0.91, 95% CI: -1.74 to -0.08, p = 0.003, I2 = 54%) were observed only in obese participants following taurine supplementation.
Additionally, the long-term intake of 3 g of taurine significantly improved HbA1c (WMD = -0.37%, 95% CI: -0.61 to -0.13, p = 0.003, I2 = 0%) and FPG levels (WMD = -7.14 mg/dL, 95% CI: -12.53 to -1.74, p = 0.003, I2 = 70%) in overweight/obesity.
15Peripheral blood metabolites in major depressive disorderMeta-Analysen=46 · small study2021
Einfach gesagt: Pathway and network analyses revealed altered amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism, especially for the tryptophan-kynurenine pathway and fatty acid metabolism, in the peripheral system of MDD patients.
Pu J et al. · Molecular psychiatry (2021)
Pathway and network analyses revealed altered amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism, especially for the tryptophan-kynurenine pathway and fatty acid metabolism, in the peripheral system of MDD patients.
Our findings may facilitate biomarker development and the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms that underly MDD.
17Physical performance in female athletesMeta-Analyse2022
Einfach gesagt: More studies are needed in female athletes that measure the effects of different EAs on sports performance, such as beetroot juice, beta-alanine or sodium phosphate, as the studies to date are scarce and there are many types of EA that need to be further considered in this population, such as creatine and taurine.
López-Torres O et al. · Nutrients (2022)
A random-effects model and the standardized mean differences (SMD) ± 95% confidence intervals (CI) were reported.
Aerobic tests could be improved with the use of taurine, caffeine, and beta-alanine.
No conclusive effects of beetroot juice, polyphenols, or creatine in improving aerobic performance were shown.
Einfach gesagt: Human endurance performance can be improved by orally ingesting a single dose of taurine in varying amounts (1-6 g).
Waldron M et al. · Sports medicine (Auckland, N.Z.) (2018)
Taurine ingestion improved overall endurance performance (Hedges' g = 0.40, 95% CI 0.12-0.67, P = 0.004), which was similar in TTE trials (Hedges' g = 0.43, 95% CI 0.12-0.75, P = 0.007).
There were no differences between acute or chronic supplementation for the full sample (P = 0.897) or the TTE group (P = 0.896).
Human endurance performance can be improved by orally ingesting a single dose of taurine in varying amounts (1-6 g).
Einfach gesagt: This review synthesizes current evidence supporting taurine's pleiotropic neuroprotective actions and discusses its translational potential as an early-stage, low-risk intervention to delay or prevent AD progression.
Hossain MK et al. · International journal of molecular sciences (2026)
Growing evidence supports the concept that early, upstream neuroprotective interventions may meaningfully alter disease trajectory in both sporadic and familial AD.
Taurine, an endogenously abundant and clinically safe neuromodulator, has re-emerged as a promising multi-target regulator of AD-relevant pathways.
This review synthesizes current evidence supporting taurine's pleiotropic neuroprotective actions and discusses its translational potential as an early-stage, low-risk intervention to delay or prevent AD progression.
