What to look for

✓Free-form L-taurine powder or capsules, USP grade; no standardisation needed
✓1–6 g/day; 3–4 g/day is the practical middle. In the dose-response cycling trial 4 g beat both 1 g and 6 g.
✓Third-party tested (USP, NSF, Informed Sport)

What to avoid

✕Proprietary blends that hide the dose per ingredient
✕Unstandardised extracts with no active-compound percentage

Safety notes

· Generally well tolerated up to 6 g/day; loose stools and nausea are the main reports at the top of that range
· Additive hypotension — meta-analysis found systolic BP −4.0 mmHg, so caution if already hypotensive or on antihypertensives
· Very limited data in pregnancy, lactation and in people with reduced kidney function
