Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialPosterior estimates indicated that CAF+TAU was associated with a credible positive effect on anaerobic capacity (g = 0.46, 95% CrI [0.19, 0.71]) and reaction time (g = 0.75, 95% CrI [0.29, 1.18]) compared to CAF or TAU alone.1Deng H (2025)Caffeine and taurine: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of their individual and combined effects on physical capacity, cognitive function, and physiological markers.
Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialBackground Caffeine (CAF) and taurine (TAU) have each demonstrated ergogenic effects across physical and cognitive domains.1Deng H (2025)Caffeine and taurine: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of their individual and combined effects on physical capacity, cognitive function, and physiological markers.
Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialOften co-formulated in commercial energy drinks, they are widely regarded as the two principal bioactive compounds.1Deng H (2025)Caffeine and taurine: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of their individual and combined effects on physical capacity, cognitive function, and physiological markers.
Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialConclusions 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.2Mizera K (2026)Football-Specific Performance and Cognitive Fatigue Resistance Following Supplementation with Two Phosphatidylserine Doses Combined with Taurine and Caffeine in Professional Male Football Players: A Randomized, Triple-Masked, Placebo-Controlled Trial.
Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialBackground/objectives Cognitive fatigue and impaired psychomotor function may contribute to reductions in football-specific performance during prolonged match-like activity.2Mizera K (2026)Football-Specific Performance and Cognitive Fatigue Resistance Following Supplementation with Two Phosphatidylserine Doses Combined with Taurine and Caffeine in Professional Male Football Players: A Randomized, Triple-Masked, Placebo-Controlled Trial.
Taurine Cognitive Function Randomized TrialThis study evaluated cognitive, psychomotor, sprint, and football-specific locomotor responses to multi-ingredient protocols containing taurine, caffeine, and either 300 or 600 mg·day -1 of phosphatidylserine in professional male football players.2Mizera K (2026)Football-Specific Performance and Cognitive Fatigue Resistance Following Supplementation with Two Phosphatidylserine Doses Combined with Taurine and Caffeine in Professional Male Football Players: A Randomized, Triple-Masked, Placebo-Controlled Trial.
