NOW Foods, Taurine, Double Strength, 1,000 mg, 100 Veg Capsules

Description of the Product Compared to our usual strength product (500 mg), this product has twice as much taurine (1,00 mg). Taurine is a conditionally necessary amino acid that is mostly present free in most tissues, particularly the nervous system. It is not used for protein synthesis. It helps move potassium, sodium, calcium, and magnesium into and out of cells by maintaining cell membranes in tissues. Taurine is utilized by the body in visual pathways, the brain, and nervous system, where it functions as a neurotransmitter in conjunction with glycine and GABA. It also serves to produce and regulate nerve impulses and maintain fluid equilibrium. This product may vary in color naturally.
