About this item
Description
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid that is not utilized for protein synthesis, but is mainly found free in most tissues, especially throughout the nervous system.* It functions in tissues by stabilizing cell membranes and aiding the transport of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells.* Taurine helps to generate and regulate nerve impulses and supports the maintenance of normal fluid balance, it is also used by the body in visual pathways, as well as in the brain and nervous system, where it works together with glycine and GABA as a neurotransmitter

I finished my bottle of this Now Taurine powder and then noticed on the label that it is "Product of China. Packaged in the USA." I'm not confident about China manufacturing standards so I probably won't buy again. Which it was a product of USA.

I decided to try a powdered version of taurine. It has no real distinct taste so I could put it on my tongue and drink it down. I really save alot by taking it this way instead of buying capsules
Better than capsules, cost effective

To me, this is easier to take than capsules and has an added savings. I notice a difference in overall well being in taking this dosage. I place on my tongue and swallow with some water. It is not powdery, so it is easy to swallow.

I've found this that taking this protein before improves workouts. I can last longer with less fatigue. It's tolerable tasting dissolved in some water or juice.

The subtle energy boost and the sharpness of mind makes this a great supplement. The natural taste of Taurine is pleasant and easy to hide in yogurt and other favorite foods.

Did not dissolve in water - not crystals. Had a weird burned paper/sulfer (like fireworks) smell. Caused bloating and stomach upset. Did not take it long enough to see if it helped.

Noting that I have used several brands of taurine. Since using Now Foods of 1 gram servings on an empty stomach before workouts, I have notice enhanced muscle size, extra power & strength, better muscle recovery, enhanced energy levels when doing high intensity strength and aerobic exercising 5-6 days a week!

I love not having to take more pills since i need 4g of this daily, i take 2 in the am with my liquid Calm magnesium and 2 doses at night straight in my mouth with water. Works fine for me. Only tiny thing is sometimes there is a bit of grit which feels and looks like a tiny piece of plastic but it splits with my thumbnail so must just be some Taurine that's a bit more granulated or rigid. I won't stop taking it for that reason though. Not a big deal.

I take two 500 mg taurine pills together with a cup of coffee each morning and I seem to have more energy than usual.
