Overview.
Taurine is an amino acid that supports neurological development and helps regulate the level of water and minerals in the blood. Taurine is also thought to have antioxidant properties. It is commonly found in food sources such as fish and meat.
Body builders and fitness enthusiasts take taurine as a training supplement, this is because it has been shown to enhance the V02 max and length of time that they can perform for until exhausted. Taurine is prescribed to treat high blood pressure, liver disease, high cholesterol, ADHD and is currently being researched to see the impact that it could have as an anti-diabetic compound.
Taurine is needed within the body for normal skeleton functions and its ability to lower cholesterol within the blood means it’s a popular addition to beverages throughout the health industry.
