An Important Amino Acid
I take taurine as part of my post-workout formula, in part because it helps balance out taking beta-alanine, which may deplete taurine (and beta-alanine is in my pre-workout).<br /><br />But Taurine has its own benefits, including potentially protecting the heart, brain, and muscles. I also feel a good mental lift from taking taurine, and there is some evidence it can enhance athletic performance, which is why it is an ingredient in some pre-workout formulas.<br /><br />I normally use taurine powder, but if you would prefer pills, this is a good option. However, in pill form, it ends up being much more expensive, gram for gram, than powder.
