FROM THE CLINIC

Taurine Wipeout: Anti-Aging Hopes Fizzle in Latest Human Trial

large human trial shows no effects from taurine

Taurine, the amino acid once crowned the next big anti-aging breakthrough, has just been leveled.

A new randomized clinical trial, just published in JAMA, has delivered what might be the supplement industryā€™s least favorite phrase: no significant effect.

A human trial of 108 healthy adults over age 60 were given taurine supplements or a placebo daily for 16 weeks.

The resultsā€¦ (yikes!):

  • No meaningful improvements in aging biomarkers.

  • No meaningful improvements in inflammation.

  • None in mitochondrial function.

  • None in DNA methylation age.

Nada. Zilch.

Sayonara, Taurine (for now).

If youā€™ve been popping taurine supplements thinking itā€™ll help you outlive your neighbors, science says you might want to reconsider.
