Hi!
I am still a bit confused about the role of taurine as there seem to be contradictory statements weather it's a calming/inhibitory amino acid or more a stimulating/excitatory one.
When I google taurine I read a lot about taurine enhancing GABA and therfore being calming.
But I am confused because my very trained doc told me it's energizing and not good for sleep. It's also a supplement in many energy drinks like Red Bull.
I tried it myself as I am very defient in taurine and did not find it to be energizing.
Any suggestions?
