Should We All Take Taurine Supplements?
Webinar + Q&A
Program Information

Duration: 1.5 hours
Last Day to Register: February 19th, 2025
Taurine is an important non-essential amino acid that’s often added to energy drinks. Our body can make it, but as we age, our production drops and taurine blood levels fall as much as 80 percent. As is the case with other purported longevity vitamins like spermidine, even though our bodies can produce taurine, maybe we don’t produce enough for optimal health and longevity, so we may need to ensure we’re getting more in our diet starting in middle age. A landmark study showing that taurine supplementation can improve the healthspan and lifespan of animals was released after I had already submitted my How Not to Age manuscript to the publisher. Now that I’ve had time to do a deep dive into the important paper, let’s discuss the best sources, risks, and benefits of adding taurine to our diet.

Testimonials
All of the content was extremely useful. Dr. G is the best teacher, even via the web, I have ever listened to. Clear, engaging, personable, passionate, patient and very interesting.
It is a very cool feeling that there are over 500 people around the globe, who are interested in nutrition and want to know even more. So keep up the good work.
Dr. Greger did a fantastic job bringing his genius knowledge down to my level. I learned so much on all the ways to research effectively, thoroughly and truthfully. He was fantastic! He went over aspects enough times for me to get what he was talking about. So he didn't go too fast. He went just at the right pace. He did it with humor and fascination on a subject that can be tedious, he made it an adventure. I really appreciate all the work and planning that went into the four hours! Can't wait for him to do it again on another subject!
This course is worth so much money and a huge value to those particularly in university and research. Thank you so much for your time and efforts!
Dr. Greger is a rare treasure and his educational style is engaging. Thank you all!
