The Effects of Oral Taurine on Resting Blood Pressure in Humans: a Meta-Analysis
Waldron M, Patterson SD, Tallent J, Jeffries O
Published in Current Hypertension Reports
Methodology
Meta-analysis of randomized trials of oral taurine on resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure
Key Findings
Taurine reduced systolic blood pressure by roughly 3 mmHg and diastolic by roughly 1.3 mmHg versus control
Conclusions
Oral taurine produces small but clinically relevant reductions in resting blood pressure
Limitations
Small number of trials; variable populations and doses
Supplements Studied
Taurine reduced systolic blood pressure by approximately 3 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by approximately 1.3 mmHg
Outcomes Measured
Oral taurine produces small but clinically relevant reductions in resting blood pressure
