The evidence suggests that taurine can improve endurance performance in trained adults, though the effects on strength and recovery are less clear. While some studies indicate benefits in reducing DNA damage and lactate levels, the overall strength of the evidence is moderate to low, indicating a need for further investigation.
Aerobic & strength exercise (dose-response; DNA damage, lactate)Athletes and active adults · Systematic reviewLow
Taurine 2 g × 3/day with exercise reduced DNA damage; 1 g acute reduced lactate. Mechanistic support for improved muscle strength & endurance via calcium homeostasis regulation.
Endurance exercise performanceTrained adults; mixed sports · Meta-analysisModerate
Oral taurine ingestion improved overall endurance performance; dose & supplementation period did not significantly moderate the effect.
Longevity Mix (Bryan Johnson)
Bryan Johnson's Blueprint Longevity Mix is the core daily powder from his self-quantified anti-aging protocol. It combines NAD+ pathway support (CaAKG), collagen precursors (Glycine, Lysine, Vitamin C), joint protection (Glucosamine, Sodium Hyaluronate), mitochondrial support (Creatine, CoQ10-adjacent), and antioxidant defence (Glutathione, Taurine). Every ingredient is dosed at clinically relevant levels validated through continuous biomarker tracking.
