"Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid produced from cysteine
by the body. It is found abundantly in the body, particularly throughout
the excitable tissues of the central nervous system, where it is
thought to have a regulating influence. Taurine can promote optimal
blood flow to nerves. It also appears to play an important role in many
physiological processes, such as osmoregulation, immunomodulation and
bile salt formation.151 Recent studies suggested that taurine might have
neuro- and cardio-protective properties and provide protection against
oxidative stress.151-154 Taurine is also critical for maintaining
cardiac health in certain aging individuals. Dietary taurine may help
maintain healthy liver function.155 However, it is deficient in many
diets.156-162"
