Efeitos da suplementação de taurina no exercício físico
| Resumo: | Introduction: Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is the major free intracellular amino acid of most mammalian tissues. It is essential for various biological processes such as central nervous system and retinal development, calcium modulation, membrane stabilization, reproduction and immunity. Since the endogenous production is insufficient, it is necessary to obtain taurine through the ingestion of foods, preferably of animal origin.Objectives: There are many gaps when discussing the effects of Tau, both when consumed alone or when contained in a BE in relation to muscle damage and physical performance in different individuals and exercise modalities. So, the purpose of this systematic review is to explore the effects of Tau on aerobic and anaerobic physical performance and to describe its mechanisms of action.Materials and Methods: A systematic review of the literature in the PubMed / Medline and SportDiscus databases was carried out. Inclusion criteria included scientific articles of investigation, with ingestion of taurine alone, in vivo studies in English, Portuguese or Spanish, since 2002.Results: We selected 13 articles, 7 of which were aerobic exercise and 6 of anaerobic exercise. Significant improvements in aerobic activities (4 out of 7 studies) and anaerobic activity (4 of 6 studies) were observed.Conclusion: Taurine intake may contribute to the improvement of various aspects of aerobic and anaerobic performance. The main ergogenic effect observed in aerobic exercise is centered on the increase in cardiorespiratory capacity. In anaerobic activity, the main effect was the improvement in muscle damage. However, a greater number of studies are necessary to obtain more robust conclusions. |
