Do you know the side effects of use of taurine?

Q: I had being drinking can and cans of taurine and suddenly i’m having muscular contractions very painful, do you think it is related to taurine consuption?

A: It is theoretically possible if you just had a ton of Taurine since it helps (in proper doses) to maintain the body’s electrolyte balance, but it would have taken a whole lot. It would also make sense if you were working out or sweating a lot, since that is an easy way to lose electrolytes. Magnesium is good for muscle health, although you shouldn’t take it with Calcium if you want the maximum benefit from the Magnesium. Magnesium helps Calcium to be absorbed, but not the other way around… taking it with Calcium might reduce the pure benefits from the Magnesium that you would get.You would get good benefits from proper doses of Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium, and the other electrolytes (all of which can cause muscle spasms or cramps when you’re deficient) to help replenish what may have been lost. The easiest way to get that would be either a few replenishing drinks (Gatorade/Powerade is fine, but Emer’Gen-C or similar products would be healthier) or some bananas, yams, etc. Good luck and I hope I helped!

Are there any side effects or bad effects to drinking drinks with Taurine (bull bile)?

Q: is taurine really bull bile? what is bull bile?

A: As a dietitian, I can tell you that taurine is not likely to benefit you in any way. It is an amino acid (protein building block) that is common in most living species. Yes, it is found in bull bile….but it is also found in different foods, human and animal tissues, etc… It is added to different energy and protein drinks, but there is little/no research to suggest that is has any benefits in terms of giving energy or building muscle. However, there is also no research about what happens when humans ingest large amounts of it (like in energy drinks). Therefore, don’t intentionally consume it as a supplement. Having a Red Bull or other energy drink from time to time should not endanger your health.
