The tutor begins research about taurine.<\/h1>\n<p>I was talking to a student the other day who consumes energy drinks. She mentioned they can be controversial, so I asked why. The caffeine and taurine content, she answered, are two points of concern.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to a cup of coffee, her drink seemed to have about 50% more caffeine. The taurine was around 1500mg; I don&#8217;t remember exactly.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m no one to give lifestyle advice, but I drink two pots of coffee per day. The caffeine content, therefore, did not give me pause. The taurine I&#8217;m much less familiar with, so did some preliminary research today.<\/p>\n<p>Two sources I visited say that taurine, up to 3000mg per day, can be considered safe. (I assume that&#8217;s for an adult, of course.)<\/p>\n<p>So, if one can contains over 1500mg taurine, then perhaps two cans per day is not suggested.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be talking more about taurine, caffeine, and energy drinks.<\/p>\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/nutrition-and-healthy-eating\/expert-answers\/taurine\/faq-20058177\">mayoclinic<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myprotein.com\/thezone\/supplements\/taurine-what-is-it-benefits-side-effects\/\">myprotein<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mycrazygoodlife.com\/energy-drinks-and-teens\/\">mycrazygoodlife.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jack of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oracletutoring.ca\">Oracle Tutoring by Jack and Diane,<\/a> Campbell River, BC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lifestyle means constant self-tutoring.
