Category: Taurine

L-Taurine is a semi-essential amino acid that is found in various area of the body, including the heart, white blood cells and the central nervous system. Vitamin World’s L-Taurine supplement contains one gram of the free form amino acid in every caplet. A building block for all other amino acids, it comprises over 50% of the total amount of amino acids found in the heart. Age, sickness and lifestyle can affect the body’s levels of Taurine and can cause deficiencies. In addition, newborns and young children do not make Taurine. This supplement is popular with bodybuilders because it helps decrease the amount of nitric oxide in the muscles, meaning they can work out harder and longer. Studies have also found that L-Taurine has a positive effect on such conditions as cardiovascular disease, cystic fibrosis, alcoholism and Alzheimer’s. This product is free of preservatives, artificial flavors, milk, starch, lactose, soy, gluten, fish and sodium.

Take one to two caplets daily, preferably on an empty stomach.

There are no listed side effects.
