In reply to Taurine dose? Amino-acid complex?, posted by MM on August 31, 2005, at 1:18:41
Hi Meg,
You've probably seen this post in the archives already but it is my favorite on taurine (the post is by Larry Hoover) and the whole thread is so helpful I thought I would pass along the URL just in case. The URL is http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/alter/20040613/msgs/365023.html
I take 1000mg taurine every morning, and it works well for me. More than 1000mg tends to make me irritable, while less does not have much effect. The thing I like most about taurine is that it keeps me calmer than I would be without making me feel more tired. I have noticed that it also seems to make it easier for me to exercise longer. But like you I have noticed that different people in Babbleland are comfortable with quite different dosage levels of taurine.Ktemene
> I read through old posts to try to answer my question but I found people taking many different doses so I was just wondering if there's any consensus or what experiences have been (as far as a Taurine dose for Bipolar/Anxiety/Depression). Anything I should be cautious of? In reading through the board I found I should get my mom on it too. I'm also wondering about an amino-acid complex. I don't eat much meat (maybe once a week, most likely chicken) as I have just never liked it much. I try to eat protein though, in cheese, beans, peanut butter, milk, but I'm sure I don't get enough of it. Would it be a good idea to take an amino complex? Thanks for any replies....I sometimes get the feeling that my posts are well, dumb or something or maybe even offensive? because I don't get many replies. Lol, if that's the case, please let me know as I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.
