Taurine is a conditionally essential, sulfur-containing amino acid found in   the tissues of most animal species. It is not incorporated into proteins, but is   found free in many tissues. Taurine is involved in a number of physiological   processes, including bile acid formation for fat digestion, fluid regulation,   detoxification of environmental toxins, regulation of cellular calcium, and   regulation of nerve excitability. The liver combines bile acids with taurine,   which results in increased cholesterol solubility and excretion. Individuals   who are taurine deficient may be more susceptible to tissue damage from   environmental pollutants such as aldehydes, chlorine, and   amines.

Taurine is the most abundant amino acid in the heart. Taurine   has been shown to improve nitric oxide production in the vascular endothelium,   which is essential to optimal blood flow, maintaining already normal blood   pressure, and overall cardiovascular functioning. Taurine acts as an   antioxidant as well, inhibiting LDL cholesterol oxidation.
