Seeking Health Taurine

Taurine is an amino acid found in most every system of the body, and is a factor in the healthy functioning of the cardiovascular system and fat metabolism, along with many other functions. Taurine is naturally found in foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. 

Benefits of Taurine

  • • Heart - Taurine has been documented as a preventative factor of stroke and heart attack, arrythmia, and congestive heart failure
  • • Weight - Studies show that Taurine supplementation may reduce incidence of high-fat diet-induced obesity.
  • • Cholesterol - Taurine can improve gallbladder function, allowing for better elimination of cholesterol through bile
  • • Antioxidant - Taurine functions as a potent antioxidant; lowering exercise-induced oxygen radical damage (the most prevelant form of free-radical damage)
  • • Brain - This amino acid is abundant in the central nervous system and protects the function of neorons (nerve cells), long-term memory, and spatial navigation. Taurine has also been shown to act as a sedative for excitable brain states; preventing seizures and minimizing manic states in those with bipolar disorder. 

In addition to these crucial roles, Taurine is also a factor in maintaining eye health and bone-density, and may benefit those with type 2 diabetes as a study showed it to decrease insulin resistance.

Risk Factors for Taurine deficiency include

  • • Vegetarian or vegan diet
  • • Intestinal dysfunction
  • • Zinc deficiency
  • • Stress

Seeking Health Taurine provides 500mg of Taurine per capsule with no allergenic ingredients. Laboratory tested for potency. Free from contaminants, flow agents, unnecessary fillers, and is gluten, dairy, egg, soy, fish, nut and corn-free.

About Seeking Health, the company

Dr. Ben Lynch, founder and Chief Medical Officer of Seeking Health, is a naturopathic physician. While majoring in Cell and Molecular biology at the University of Washington, Dr. Ben took a trip through the South Pacific and Southeast Asia that changed his outlook on traditional medicine, and his life.

During this trip, Dr. Ben hiked through the forests, mountains and coasts of Tasmania, worked a cattle ranch in the Outback of Australia, and volunteered with Mother Theresa in Calcutta. He lived in Fiji with a family having no electricity or plumbing, experienced the Himalayan Mountains of Northern India, worked a fruit orchard in New Zealand, and returned to America with an impression of a different form of medicine than he had ever experienced with his mainstream medical education.

This profound experience led Dr. Ben to Bastyr University, and he studied the Mind-Body Connection, Environmental Medicine, Functional Medicine, and Epigenetics.

Dr. Ben saw the huge need for people to obtain foundational nutrients, and Seeking Health was born. Without foundational nutrients, biochemical dysfunction occurs and causes symptoms. Doctor after doctor and person after person do not understand the absolute requirement for our bodies to have the tools to maintain function.

  • • Without water, we die.
  • • Without food, we die.
  • • Without probiotics, we get digestive disorders.
  • • Without multivitamins, we become depressed, fatigued and sick.

“If one supports their bodily systems, especially their digestion and mental health, with pure, highly absorbable, well-formulated nutrients, the ability to remain healthy and vital significantly increases. We want your foundation rock solid and we provide the tools to do so.”

-Dr. Ben Lynch, founder of Seeking Health

Seeking Health believes that the root cause for many health conditions and supplements stem from ineffective digestion, environmental exposures, poor diet, and lack of a healthy social outlet and inlet.

  • • Once digestion is restored and optimized with the best probiotics, digestive enzymes, stomach acid and intestinal repair nutrients, one is able to absorb nutrients from foods and high quality multivitamins.
  • • Once environmental exposures are reduced, one is able to reduce toxic burden which then frees up nutrients to work in promoting health and preventing disease.
  • • Once diet is optimized, nutrients flood in, energy increases, blood sugar stabilizes and the immune system balances.
  • • Creating a social outlet and inlet allows the parasympathetic nervous system to regain control over the reactive sympathetic nervous system, allowing countless nutrients to be used proactively and in a protective manner instead of being wasted on producing stress hormones.

Seeking Health is here to see you get better, and stay better. Their true passion is prevention.

Seeking Health is based in Bellingham, Washington and operated and managed by a team dedicated to bringing you better health through the best quality supplements, prebiotics, probiotics, and multivitamins.

  • How to take Taurine 100 Capsules? at 2/22/12 4:07 PM
    • Doctor Ben:

      1. What is the best time to take Taurine (am/pm)?
      2. Are there any known side effects e.g. heartburn etc.?
      3. Are there any contraindicated medications/supplements, food, or anything I should not take at the same time?
      4. Will Taurine adversely affect heart disease, liver disease (NASH), chronic constipation, or gall stones?

      I just want to be sure this stuff is safe for me to take.

      Thanks,
      Gary
    • Gary - Great questions Best time to take Taurine depends on the issue and on the need. For constipation, best to take it with each main meal of the day. For general detox, best to take it with dinner. For liver disease, best to take three times a day with main meals. Always take Taurine with a main meal - not a snack. Be careful taking Taurine if your gall bladder has been removed. If you take Taurine and your gall bladder is gone, then definitely take Taurine with larger meals. Here is a great monograph on Taurine: http://www.thorne.com/altmedrev/.fulltext/6/1/78.pdf Taurine is fantastic for many things and has very few interactions with things and very limited side effects. Side effects that are caused by Taurine are typically due to taking it away from food or taking too much. If you take Taurine with main meals of the day, then these side effects are typically not evident. Best Dr Ben
