Taurine, an amino acid also known as aminosulfonic acid due to its sulfur content, plays a crucial role in providing energy and oxygen to the body. In addition to these functions, taurine also has other important properties. It is produced by all mammals and is one of the most abundant amino acids, found in various tissues. Dietary sources of taurine are primarily protein-rich, animal foods such as meat, fish, shellfish, poultry and eggs.
Although the body is able to produce taurine itself from the amino acids methionine and cysteine, these sources are often suboptimal. That is why taurine supplementation can offer a good solution. Taurine works closely with zinc and therefore has a synergistic effect with this mineral. It is therefore very important to get enough zinc.
