taurine
 
has anyone supplemented with taurine?

mark: have you done any research on this?

Mark in Idaho 08-07-2015 07:35 PM

I'm sorry. The research in this study grosses me out.

injured, there was a very informative thread on the Trigeminal Neuralgia forum recently about Taurine.

In one of the posts I put there, there is a link with quite a lot of references - note: not related to the article you posted.

hah! what didn't you like? (i didn't read the article, just the abstract. i assume you didn't either but didn't like the abstract). if you look at pubmed there is a bunch of stuff on taurine actually. have you looked into it as a supplement before? outside of the article i posted.

thanks Lara! i will take a look

Research with 15 to 16 week fetal brain tissue.

The testing & researching on human tissue mentioned in the first link is a sensitive subject to many people.

injuredbutrecoverin 08-07-2015 09:20 PM

ahh ok i'll remove the link. didn't even pay attention to that.

aside from that: have you researched this supplement?

anyone else look into it?

Jomar 08-07-2015 10:18 PM

Thank you for removing that link..

Taurine is common in many energy drinks. It value for neurogenesis compared with neurogenesis without it is something to be considered.

But, neurogenesis is a very slow process. It takes months and maybe even years of hours each day of therapy. Anybody who knows someone who has recovered from a severe TBI with coma knows that therapy was hours each day for many months. It takes hundreds and thousands of repetitions to network such neurogenesis into functional improvement.

what have we got but time

DannyT 08-08-2015 01:08 PM

I've considered starting to take Taurine daily (1g) but I'm concerned with the high amount of antioxidants I'm already consuming daily. Too many antioxidants can be counterproductive, so I've read.

what other antiox are you taking?
