Want to live longer? Taurine & GlyNAC supplements increase longevity. Taurine increases lifespan.

Research shows that the amino acid, #taurine boosts #longevity. Amino acids are the building blocks of life, and it's clear that they are essential for prolonging life too. The perfect supplement stack for extending lifespan seems to be:

Taurine + GlyNAC (#Glycine & N-Acetyl Cysteine, NAC)

The best foods for taurine are #scallops, #mussels, #squid, and #clams. Meats have a good content, particularly dark turkey and chicken meat. But all these are eclipsed by #RedBull, which has 1000mg of #taurine.

Should you supplement with taurine, or drink a Red Bull? A Red Bull contains 1g of taurine, so the occasional one would help hugely with your taurine intake. But this benefit has to be offset by the sugar content and caffeine. Whilst the caffeine amount is similar to a cup of coffee, a 250ml can of red bull contains 27g of sugar. This is 100 calories, which would take a 15 minute brisk walk to burn off. For someone with an active and busy life, the occasional Red Bull during the day, before exercise or a walk, wouldn't hurt.

I take Glycine and NAC at bed time on an empty stomach. I take 2g of Taurine once per day, 1 hour before excercise.

[oldmisterhoward]

Is it safe to take GlyNac and Taurine at the same time?

[jayhensley]

NAC Should be taken on an empty stomach, with no proteins within hours either way. Also extra benefits with with vegetables high in sulfur such as broccoli, Brussel sprouts, Cabbage, ect

I would add creatine to the stack. Consume all 4 in powder form for best results.

@freenutrition, where did you get this overview of the metabolic process in 0:22 ?

[jaysess]

I eat taurine during the day, as it is energizing and Glynac at bedime.

What is the ideal timing for taking Taurine and GlyNAC? I know to take them on an empty stomach, but I don't know what time of day would be ideal, and is it better to take them at different times, or together?

[carpark]

Not that I'm considering taking Red Bull, but I do know that around my area at least the is Red Bull no sugar. Would that be an option for those thinking of taking it without the sugar hit?

Have you seen the studies on the tumor and certain cancer promoting results with these supplements especially Taurine and possibly Glycine. You can google it I lost the link. A reliable study source I lost the link too.

[Purewalite]

I'm wary of the lung cancer links with NAC.

[Jimbob-znbl]

I eat a dozen eggs every day and get plenty of Taurine!!🥚💪🤠

[EternalResonance]

Not good for you when you're taking drinks like redbull or other sugary or fake sugar drinks.
