Taurine in the Protein?

EzyRyder · 01-22-2007, 08:45 PM

How much taurine would be effcient for a 8-10 pound mix at TP? I hear taurine is very good but I can't figure out how much to put in my mix. Could you please help? I don't want to make a mistake by putting to much in.

Studies have shown it's most effective in the 100mg/kg of body weight per day range. So take a dose of 100mg x bodyweight (kg)= total daily dose. Now multiply that by the number of days you estimate 8-10 pounds of protein will last and you'll have your total dose. You might find that dose high but I've seen studies that recommend between 100 and 500. I think 500 is excessive.

11907 grams, what percentage is just one gram on their bar when you press + once?

EDIT::: Thanks everyone for your help lately.

What? Dude that's 11.9kg's or more then your total protein!

Here I'll work it out for you with an example. EzyRyder weigh's 80kg's, he has 10lbs of protein and uses approx 64g per shake. 10 lbs=4.54kg or 4540 grams

So 4540/64= around 71 shakes out of a 10lb bag.

Now the amount of Taurine you'll need is around 100mg per Kg of bodyweight so.. 80x100= 8000mg or 8 grams

You need 8 grams a day times the number of days your Protein will last giving you...

71 (at one shake a day) x 8 grams (taurine)= 568grams of Taurine or around 1.25 pounds of taurine to mix in with your 10lb protein giving you 11.25lbs net weight.

I made the mix something like this: 8 lb, Chocolate flavor, plastic jug packaged, Whey Protein Isolate Ion-Exchange 50%, Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration 35%,
Taurine Powder 15%

Comes out to be about $74.88 without shipping
