Support heart rhythm, brain function and eye health with this versatile amino acid
Taurine is a sulphur containing amino acid found in high concentrations in the heart, brain, eyes and muscles. Unlike most amino acids, taurine is not used to build proteins. Instead, it plays a supporting role in bile acid production, cardiovascular function, nervous system regulation and cellular hydration.
Each capsule provides 480mg of taurine in a clean formulation. The body can produce small amounts of taurine from other amino acids, but production declines with age. Dietary sources include meat, fish and seafood, which means vegetarians and vegans are more likely to have lower levels.
Taurine is commonly recommended for cardiovascular support, as it helps regulate calcium and electrolyte balance in the heart muscle. It also supports bile acid conjugation, which is important for fat digestion and cholesterol metabolism. In the brain, taurine has a calming effect through its interaction with GABA receptors, making it useful for people experiencing anxiety or difficulty winding down.
Research published in 2023 demonstrated that taurine supplementation extended the healthy lifespan of middle-aged mice, generating significant interest in taurine's potential role in healthy ageing. While human trials are ongoing, the findings point to taurine's broad involvement in cellular health.
