TAURİN Almalı Mıyız, Çocuğumuza Vermeli Miyiz?
Summary
TLDRThe video script discusses taurine, an amino acid often associated with a vegan diet, particularly for children. It clarifies that although taurine is essential for bile salt synthesis in fat digestion, vegans and those with low-fat plant-based diets have less need for it due to lower fat intake. The script refutes claims that vegan children require supplemental taurine and highlights that studies showing taurine deficiencies are conducted on animals and cannot be generalized to humans. It concludes that, except for specific health conditions, there is no need for taurine supplementation in a vegan diet.
Takeaways
- 🧬 Taurine is an amino acid that does not participate in protein synthesis and has antioxidant properties.
- 🔄 Although taurine can be synthesized in the human body from other amino acids, it is sometimes considered conditionally essential.
- 🚫 There is no need for external taurine supplementation as the body can produce it from existing amino acids.
- 🌱 The role of taurine includes bile salt formation in fat digestion, which is crucial for cholesterol metabolism.
- ❗ Claims that taurine deficiency leads to decreased bile salt production and increased risk of atherosclerosis are questioned in the script.
- 🥗 Vegans typically have lower fat intake, reducing the need for bile salts and thus the requirement for taurine synthesis.
- 👶 In vegan children, lower bile salt synthesis was observed, but this was attributed to their lower fat intake rather than taurine deficiency.
- 🚫 Studies suggesting taurine deficiency effects are conducted on animals and cannot be generalized to humans.
- 📉 A study found that taurine supplementation in humans with obesity led to weight loss, but it was ineffective in those with insulin resistance.
- 🌟 Taurine intake is not necessary for individuals with a plant-based diet, especially if they consume less fat.
- 👉 The script concludes that there is no need for taurine supplementation in vegans, pregnant women, or the elderly with a low-fat plant-based diet.
Q & A
What is taurine and why is it discussed in the context of vegan diets?
-Taurine is an amino acid that does not participate in protein synthesis and has antioxidant properties. It is discussed in the context of vegan diets due to claims that it should be particularly supplemented in vegan children, although the speaker suggests that this may not be necessary.
Is taurine essential or can it be synthesized in the human body?
-Taurine is considered conditionally essential or semi-essential, meaning it can be synthesized in the human body from other amino acids, but there might be a shortfall that requires external intake under certain conditions.
What is the role of taurine in digestion according to the script?
-Taurine plays a role in bile salt formation, which is important for fat digestion. A deficiency or low intake of taurine might lead to decreased cholesterol emulsification, potentially leading to atherosclerosis risk.
Why might vegans not need to supplement with taurine according to the speaker?
-Vegans typically have lower fat intake, and therefore, the need for bile salts to interact with fats is also low. This reduced need for bile salts means that vegans might not require additional taurine.
What was the finding regarding bile salts and vegan children in the speaker's previous work?
-In the speaker's previous work on vegan children's nutrition, it was found that some bile salts were synthesized less in vegan children, likely due to their lower fat intake.
What is the relationship between taurine deficiency and cholesterol levels as discussed in the script?
-The script suggests that a deficiency in taurine could lead to decreased cholesterol emulsification, which could then lead to an increased risk of atherosclerosis.
What evidence does the speaker provide against the necessity of taurine supplementation for vegans?
-The speaker argues that vegans, due to their lower fat intake, have less need for bile salts and therefore do not require additional taurine, as it is already synthesized in the body to the extent needed.
Are there any studies mentioned in the script that link taurine supplementation to health benefits in humans?
-The script mentions a study where 3 grams of taurine daily for 7 weeks was reported to reduce obesity in humans, but it also clarifies that this effect was not observed in individuals with insulin resistance.
What is the speaker's stance on taurine supplementation for people with a plant-based diet?
-The speaker suggests that there is no need for taurine supplementation for people with a plant-based diet, especially if they consume less fat, as the body can synthesize the necessary amount of taurine.
How does the script address the generalizability of studies on taurine deficiency from animals to humans?
-The script points out that studies on taurine deficiency have been conducted on animals such as rats, hamsters, and cats, and cautions that these findings cannot be generalized to humans.
What is the speaker's conclusion regarding taurine supplementation needs for different age groups on a plant-based diet?
-The speaker concludes that there is no need for taurine supplementation for any age group on a plant-based diet, including newborns, pregnant women, and the elderly, as long as their diet is low in fat.
Outlines
🧬 Taurine: Myths and Vegan Nutrition
The paragraph discusses the debate around the necessity of taurine supplementation, particularly for vegan children. Taurine is identified as an amino acid that does not participate in protein synthesis and has antioxidant properties. It is not essential as our bodies can synthesize it from other amino acids, although there might be a slight deficiency that the speaker will demonstrate is not necessary. The paragraph also addresses the claims that taurine deficiency could lead to decreased bile salt synthesis, potentially affecting cholesterol metabolism and increasing the risk of atherosclerosis. However, the speaker argues that vegans, who typically consume less fat, have a reduced need for bile salts to interact with fats, thus diminishing the concern over taurine deficiency. The paragraph concludes by suggesting that taurine deficiency studies conducted on animals cannot be generalized to humans and that vegans or those with a low-fat plant-based diet do not need to supplement with taurine.

Herkese merhaba, taurin ile ilgili bir video yapacağımı daha önce söylemiştim
bu konuda özellikle vegan çocuklarda verilmesi gerektiğiyle ilgili bir
tartışma daha doğrusu iddialar vardı bu konuda ufak çaplı bir araştırma
yaptım ve gerek olmadığını gördüm ama biraz bundan bahsetmek istiyorum
detaylarından. Öncelikle taurin nedir bundan başlamak lazım. Taurin bir aminoasit
Bir protein sentezine asla katılmıyor ve diğer sülfürlü
aminoasitler gibi o da antioksidan özelliğe sahip ve her ne kadar bize
esansiyel veya yarı esansiyel olduğu söylense de aslında esansiyel değil
Dışarıdan almaya ihtiyacımız yok çünkü zaten insandaki diğer aminoasitlerden de
sentezlenebilir, bir noktada az kalıyor ama o noktada da aslında gerek
olmadığını Birazdan size göstereceğim taurinin Peki görevi ne taurinin görevi yağ
sindiriminde görev alacak safra tuzlarını oluşturmak Bu yüzden de taurin
eksikliğinde veya az alındığında kolesterol atılımı azalacak ve bunu
takiben de birikecek ve ateroskleroz riski artacak diye bazı iddialar var
oysa burada gözden kaçan bir şey var O da şu; veganlarda yağ tüketimi az olduğu
için yağ alımı az olduğu için yağların safra tuzları ile etkileşime girme
ihtiyacı da çok düşük. Bunu ben tahmin etmiyorum. Aslında daha önce bu kanalda
vegan çocuklardaki beslenme çalışmasında buna dikkat çekmiştim ben de videoyu
tekrar izleyince hatırladım buraya koyarım videonun bağlantısını orada ne
bulmuştuk bazı safra tuzlarının vegan çocuklarda daha az sentezlendiği
görülmüştü aslında çok basit vegan çocuklar daha az yağlı beslendikleri
için o kolesterolün giderilmesi için gereken safra tuzlarına da ihtiyaçları daha az
bu yüzden bu çocuklarda da taurin eksikliği oluyordu Yani aslında taurin
eksikliği değil taurine gerek olmuyordu gerek olduğu miktarı da vücutta zaten
sentezlenir aslında Sadece taurin bile bir insanın neden etçil veya hepçil
olmadığının da tek başına güzel bir göstergesi. Taurin eksikliğinin nelere yol
açabileceğinin gösterildiği tüm çalışmalar maalesef hayvanlarda yapılmış Fareler
sıçanlar hamsterlar kediler gibi dikkat ettiğiniz gibi bunlar hepçil hayvanlar ve
Bu çalışmalar insanlara genellenemiyorlar Bir tane çalışma buldum, 7 hafta boyunca
günlük 3 gram taurin ile beslenen insanlarda obezitenin azaldığı
bildirilmiş Aman ne güzel ama aynı çalışma diyor ki İnsülin direnci
olmayanlarda hiçbir işe yaramamış taurin yani dönüp dolaşıp bütün bu takviyelerde
hep aynı noktaya geliyoruz; vegan ya da az yağlı bitkisel beslenen insanlarda
taurin alımına ihtiyaç yok, çünkü o kadar yağınız olmadığı için o yağları safra tuzlarıyla
çözmenize gerek yok bu Kalsiyum için Omega 3 için de aynı şekilde geçerli
Eğer hepçil iseniz taurin almalı mısınız Bu biraz Şunun gibi yüksek tansiyonunuz
var tansiyon ilacı almalı mısınız? Evet ama neden tansiyonunuz olsun tansiyon
hastası olmazsanız ilaç da almanıza gerek kalmaz az yağlı bitkisel
beslenirseniz de taurin almanıza gerek kalmaz Yani buradan gönül rahatlığıyla
söyleyebilirim ki Ne yeni doğan ne Hamile ne orta yaş ileri yaş hiçbir
yaşta az yağlı bitkisel beslenen birisinin taurin ihtiyacı yoktur ilgili
makaleleri de aşağıda paylaşıyorum varsa daha farklı iddiası olan makaleler
beraber burada açıklamaya tartışmaya da söz veriyorum görüşmek üzere
