topicPhosphatidylserine Exercise Stress Randomized Trial
claimConclusions Under the present 14-day experimental conditions, the multi-ingredient protocols containing taurine, caffeine, and phosphatidylserine were associated with more favorable selected cognitive and psychomotor outcomes, 30 m sprint performance, and baseline-adjusted GPS-derived locomotor outcomes than placebo.
