Quick Summary
In this randomized crossover study, taurine supplementation improved the participant’s ability to sweat and regulate body temperature during low-intensity exercise in hot conditions compared to a placebo.

What was studied?
The effect of taurine supplementation on sweating and body temperature regulation.
The following outcomes were measured:
- 3 sweat parameters (whole-body sweat loss, local sweat rate, sweat gland activation)
- 2 body temperature parameters (core temperature, skin temperature)
- Heart rate
- Breakpoint of compensability (i.e., at what point during the test body temperature started rising)
- Body fluid (plasma) volume
- Evaporative heat transfer
- Heat storage (the degree to which body heat exceeds body heat loss)
- VO2max
