What is Scitec Nutrition Taurine?
Scitec Nutrition Taurine is a single-ingredient taurine supplement in capsule form. Each capsule provides 1000mg of taurine, and the 3-capsule daily serving provides 3000mg. Taurine makes up 89% of the capsule content, with no flavourings, sweeteners or other active ingredients. One 90-capsule pack provides 30 servings.
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid that is involved in many metabolic processes. It occurs naturally in foods of animal origin, but it is practically absent from foods of plant origin. It is also well known as an ingredient of energy drinks, and in this product it is provided on its own, in free form, in large capsules.
What is it used for?
Taurine is used as a dietary source of a conditionally essential amino acid. Because it comes almost exclusively from animal foods, people who eat little or no meat and fish have a lower dietary intake of it, and a supplement is a simple way to top it up.
Athletes and active people also use taurine as part of their routine around training. It is found in the muscles, the brain and the retina, and it is a regular ingredient of energy drinks, which is why many people are familiar with it. A pure taurine capsule lets you control the dose separately, without the caffeine and sugar that energy drinks contain.

Scitec recommends spreading the three daily capsules through the day, before and after training or between meals, ideally on an empty stomach.

Q1 — What is taurine?
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid, involved in many metabolic processes. It is found in the muscles, the brain and the retina. Most people know it as an ingredient of energy drinks.
Q2 — Why would I take taurine as a supplement?
Taurine occurs naturally in foods of animal origin but is practically absent from plant foods. People who eat little or no meat and fish therefore get less of it, and athletes use it as part of their training routine.
Q3 — How should I take it?
Take 1 capsule 3 times a day, in evenly divided doses, with a glass of water. It is ideal on an empty stomach, before and after training or between meals. On rest days, take the three capsules between meals. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Q4 — Is it suitable for vegetarians and vegans, given that taurine is mainly found in animal foods?
No, the capsule is not. The capsule shell contains gelatin and shellac, which are animal-derived. The label does not declare an animal ingredient in the taurine itself, but the capsule excludes vegetarians and vegans.
Q5 — Can I combine it with energy drinks and other Scitec products?
Taurine is a common ingredient of energy drinks, and some Scitec products already contain it, such as Whey Protein Professional (990mg per serving) and BCAA + Glutamine Xpress. Check the combined intake if you use several, and do not exceed the recommended daily dose of this product.
