- Promotes antioxidant defense and healthy aging
Encourage the health and functions of multiple systems throughout the body with Swanson Taurine. This amino acid supports cardiovascular health, athletic performance and more by helping to maintain electrolyte balance throughout the body. Electrolyte balance impacts your daily health regardless of activity level—maintaining healthy levels of important minerals such as sodium, calcium and potassium is needed to promote healthy bones and arteries.
Your body also needs taurine for optimal digestive health, nervous system function and eye health. An effective antioxidant, taurine supports the body's defense systems, helps maintain mitochondrial health and promotes integrity of cell membranes, all key aspects of longevity and healthy aging. It has been studied for its potential to support aspects of heart and metabolic wellness such as maintaining healthy blood sugar and blood lipid levels, as well as blood vessel health and blood flow.
A conditionally essential amino acid, your body can produce some taurine. However since it is commonly found in animal proteins, those who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet may need supplemental taurine. It can also be depleted during times of high stress.
We recommend taking your taurine supplement on an empty stomach for better bioavailability. You may also consider taking it alongside a BCAA supplement for enhanced muscle recovery potential.

FAQ
- What are the benefits of taurine?
Taurine is a naturally occurring amino sulfonic acid that supports a variety of important functions throughout the body. It helps support healthy muscle function, cardiovascular health, nervous system function, hydration, and electrolyte balance, and also acts as an antioxidant to help protect cells from oxidative stress. - How does taurine support exercise performance?
Taurine is highly concentrated in skeletal muscle, where it helps support normal muscle contraction, hydration, and electrolyte balance during physical activity. Research suggests taurine may also help support exercise performance and recovery by helping maintain normal muscle function and reducing oxidative stress associated with exercise. - What foods contain taurine?
Taurine is found naturally in animal-based foods such as meat, poultry, seafood, and dairy products, with shellfish and dark meat poultry among the richest dietary sources. Because taurine is not naturally present in most plant foods, individuals following vegetarian or vegan diets may consume lower amounts through diet alone. - What makes Swanson Taurine unique?
Swanson Taurine delivers 1,000 mg of taurine per serving—twice the potency of many standard taurine supplements. It provides a high-quality source of taurine to support muscle function, hydration, electrolyte balance, and overall cellular wellness as part of a healthy lifestyle. - Is Swanson Taurine suitable for special diets?
Yes. Swanson Taurine is suitable for vegan and vegetarian lifestyles, is made with non-GMO ingredients, and is formulated without gluten or dairy, making it a great choice for a variety of dietary preferences.
