Taurine

Cardiovascular and detoxification support

* Taurine is the most abundant free amino acid in the brain,  heart, and nervous system, and it plays a role in the healthy  functioning of the brain, heart, gallbladder, eyes, and vascular  system. It facilitates the passage of sodium, potassium, and,  possibly, calcium and magnesium ions into and out of cells, and  electrically stabilizes cell membranes. It maintains healthy  cAMP activity, which activates important enzymes in the heart  muscle, and contributes to the muscle's contractibility. Taurine  is an important component of bile acids which aid in the absorption  of fat-soluble vitamins. It aids the body's chemistry by detoxifying  harmful chemicals. Dietary taurine promotes the formation of  taurocholate, a substance which increases cholesterol secretion  in the bile and also supports fat metabolism in the liver.
