Pure Taurin capsules

What is taurine and why is it so important?

Taurine is considered a "highly essential amino acid" (Ripps & Shenn 2012), although chemically it is an aminosulfonic acid. It is present in high concentrations in body tissues and plays a crucial role in muscle function.

Taurine is one of the most abundant free amino acids in the human body, accounting for approximately 0.1% of total body weight. It was first discovered in ox bile in 1827 by scientists Friedrich Tiedemann and Leopold Gmelin, which explains its name (Latin "taurus" = bull). Today, we know that taurine is present in almost all cells and plays an extremely diverse role. Its importance for metabolism is particularly evident in organs with high energy consumption, such as the brain, heart, and muscles.

The function and health effects of taurine

Taurine performs a number of important functions in the human body. These include the conjugation of bile acids, antioxidant processes, the regulation of cellular water balance (osmoregulation), the stabilization of cell membranes, and the influence of calcium signals within cells.

In addition, taurine is crucial for the normal function of the cardiovascular system and plays an important role in the development and maintenance of skeletal muscle, the retina, and the central nervous system. Other physiological effects are also currently being scientifically investigated.

It is particularly striking that taurine is present in larger amounts in tissues with high metabolic activity—such as the heart, liver, kidneys, and brain. This suggests that it may also be important for the function of mitochondria, the so-called "powerhouses of the cell."

Occurrence in food and who can benefit from a taurine supplement

Taurine is found almost exclusively in animal foods such as meat and fish. A normal mixed diet contains about 58 mg of taurine per day, but a purely plant-based diet provides almost no taurine. Therefore, vegans and vegetarians often have lower taurine levels in their blood. The body responds by significantly reducing the excretion of taurine through urine in vegans. Studies suggest that the ability to adequately synthesize taurine has progressively declined over the course of human evolution, so that the body's own production can no longer fully meet demand.
