Taurine Powder

Pure taurine, an amino acid found in meat and fish, as a tasteless powder. 1–2 g a serving; a 250 g tub lasts months.

• 100% taurine
• Tasteless
• 250 g–1 kg

Why you’d want it: The amino acid in every energy drink, bought on its own without the caffeine and sugar. Cheap, and it dissolves into anything.

Picking tip: Practically tasteless, so it can go straight into your electrolyte bottle. 1–2 g a day is the usual range. Buy the small tub first; a kilo is a two-year supply for most people.

Supplements are food, not medicine: nothing here treats or prevents anything. If you take any medicine, ask a pharmacist first.
