Taurine

Taurine is a semi-essential sulfur amino acid that is used as a dietary supplement ingredient. Taurine works together with glycine and GABA, functioning as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. Taurine aids the transport of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium ions to electrically stabilize cell membranes and support healthy brain and heart function.
