Taurine is a conditionally essential free-form amino acid that is the most abundant in many tissues and participates in a variety of metabolic processes. It is found at high levels in the heart, skeletal muscle, white blood cells, and the central nervous system, serving as a building block for all other amino acids. Unlike most other amino acids, Taurine is not incorporated into proteins but plays many roles in the body, including bile acid conjugation, detoxification, membrane stabilization, osmoregulation, and modulation of excitatory neurotransmission and intracellular calcium levels. Taurine works synergistically with any form of Creatine, enhancing its effects.
