Should energy drink fans be worried? Not necessarily. The study didn’t test taurine from drinks or supplements, only how the body produces and uses it during leukemia.
It’s an interesting read. There’s no cause for alarm, we’re just finding out how leukemia cells feed themselves. It specifically calls out that drinks and supplements given to chemo patients specifically include it to help with side effects, but those with leukemia specifically might want to check in with their doctor to discuss this new study.
Oof. I drink a lot of energy drink.
I think the taurine is the least of your concerns with regard to that.
The green glowing skin is starting to get a bit concerning however.
“I bring you love.”
It’s taurine and imo it should go on the headline.
The whole thing is clickbaity, they conclude that there’s nothing to worry about.
The study is about how the body produces taurine and the leukamia feeds on that.
aint it the core ingredient?
Yep, with the mg content prominently advertised on the can along with caffeine
