The Benefits of Torine for Performance Enhancement
Torine, a sulfur amino acid found in meat, has been shown to have a dual effect as an antioxidant and a performance enhancer. Multiple studies have demonstrated that Torine supplementation improves VO2 max, time trial times, time to exhaustion, anaerobic performance, endurance, and more. Torine acts as an antioxidant, scavenging free radicals and potentially serving as a precursor for other compounds. Muscle biopsy studies have shown elevated Torine levels after intense exercise, indicating its importance in recovery. The timing of Torine supplementation does not significantly affect its effectiveness, with peak plasma levels typically occurring one hour after ingestion. Overall, Torine is an underrated performance enhancer, particularly for endurance athletes.
