Synergy
What is happening. Taurine and magnesium are both calcium channel modulators with cardiovascular and sleep benefits; combined use is common in evening relaxation protocols.
Mechanism. Taurine modulates cardiac membrane potentials and intracellular calcium; magnesium gates NMDA receptors and supports vascular smooth muscle relaxation.
Recommendation. Common evening stack: taurine 1 to 2 g plus magnesium 200 to 400 mg elemental at bedtime.
