L-Taurine

L-Taurine is an amino acid which is highly expressed in various tissues, including skeletal muscle. It plays an important role in numerous processes essential for health, performance and recovery, including reducing muscle damage and delayed onset muscle soreness and maintaining fluid-electrolyte balance. It has also been shown to reduce muscle loss, by inhibiting the expression of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1, two key molecules involved in the atrophy process.
