L-Taurine 500mg
ʟ-Taurine, an aminosulfonic acid, serves as a pH buffer in the Cardio Health, skeletal muscles, and central nervous system.
With substantial concentrations in the brain, retinas, and Cardio Health, ʟ-Taurine acts as a structural component in specialized blood cells called platelets, responsible for clotting. One well-understood human role of ʟ-Taurine is its involvement in the liver's formation of taurine bile acid conjugates, crucial for fat assimilation and absorption. As a key component in bile, akin to soap, ʟ-Taurine aids in breaking down fats and fat-soluble vitamins. Current research reinforces its role as a significant regulator of nerve and muscle interactions.
Additionally, ʟ-Taurine contributes to the synthesis of other amino acids and serves as a crucial building block for protein. Although not as abundant in animal meat as some amino acids, it either needs to be synthesized by the body or obtained through supplementation where deficiencies are identified. Synthesis of ʟ-Taurine requires ʟ-cysteine and vitamin B6, both of which may not always be present in sufficient quantities. Deficiencies in ʟ-Taurine can adversely impact brain function.
