Taurine for Energy Drinks is a high-purity amino acid additive (≥99% assay via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) derived from synthetic fermentation using glucose as a carbon source—no animal-derived materials are involved.

This white, odorless crystalline powder has excellent solubility (100g/L in water at 20°C) and complies with FDA GRAS regulations (GRN No. 563) and EU Food Additive Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008. As the key functional ingredient in energy drinks, it has typical addition levels of 1000-2000mg per serving (500ml can), and is produced in GMP-certified facilities to avoid cross-contamination with allergens like gluten, dairy, or nuts.
Performance Enhancement: Boosts mental alertness and athletic endurance by supporting mitochondrial function—studies published in the Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism show a 15%-20% improvement in reaction time and 10% increase in endurance when consumed 30 minutes before physical or mental tasks.
Safety Compliance: The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) confirms daily intake up to 6g is safe for healthy adults—far above the average 1g per 500ml can in popular energy drinks. It is also non-carcinogenic and non-toxic, with no reported adverse effects in long-term consumption studies.
Synergistic Effect: Complements caffeine (a common component in energy drinks) to reduce fatigue without increasing heart burden. Research shows that combining taurine (1g) with caffeine (80mg) lowers perceived exhaustion by 25% compared to caffeine alone, while maintaining normal heart rate.
Energy Drinks: Add 400-1000mg per 250ml to the syrup phase (before carbonation) to ensure complete dissolution and avoid sedimentation. For sugar-free formulations, it pairs well with artificial sweeteners (e.g., aspartame, sucralose) without altering taste.
Infant Formula: Include 5-7mg per 100ml to mimic the taurine content of human breast milk (6-8mg/100ml), supporting infant brain and retinal development. It is stable during formula pasteurization (72°C for 15 seconds) with no nutrient loss.
Pet Food: Blend 1000-2000mg per kg into dry or wet cat food—taurine is essential for feline heart health, as cats cannot synthesize it endogenously. This dosage prevents dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a life-threatening condition linked to taurine deficiency.
Q: Is it vegan-friendly?
A: Yes, our synthetic taurine is 100% vegan. The fermentation process uses glucose (from corn or sugarcane) and microbial cultures, with no animal by-products (e.g., bovine bile, fish extracts) involved. It is certified by the Vegan Society.
Q: Can it be mixed with sugar and caffeine?
A: Yes, it is fully compatible with sugar (sucrose, fructose) and caffeine. However, avoid exceeding 3000mg taurine + 400mg caffeine daily—exceeding this limit may cause mild side effects like jitteriness, insomnia, or digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals.
