L-taurine 500 mg 90 capsules

  • Taurine deficiency is rare with a normal diet
    Taurine is an aminosulfonic acid that plays a crucial role above all for the functions of cells and organs in the human body. Taurine deficiency is rare in a normal diet, but there is an increased risk of this for vegetarians and vegans.
     
    People take taurine through their diet. The body also synthesizes the aminosulfonic acid itself from the amino acids methionine and cysteine. An exception are newborns. Your body is not yet able to produce taurine and is dependent on breast milk in this regard. Meat, fish and dairy products are considered good suppliers of taurine. Therefore, vegetarians and especially vegans must take special care to prevent a deficiency. However, this is extremely rare.
     
    Why do people need taurine?
    Taurine fulfills several important functions in the human body:
     
    * It stabilizes the cell membranes.
    * It ensures the correct function of the mitochondria and prevents the formation of free radicals.
    * Not yet fully documented, but it is highly likely that taurine also acts as a neurotransmitter.
    * It regulates the calcium level in the cells.
     
    In addition, the material has a central function for the eyes and vision. That is why the concentration of taurine is extremely high in these areas.
    Much has yet to be clarified about the tasks and mode of action of taurine. However, it is already clear that acid plays a central role in the human organism.
     
    The importance of taurine becomes clear even when there is too little of the aminosulfonic acid. In this case, various complications and complications can arise.
     
    Where is the required dose?
    General statements about the daily dose of taurine required can hardly be made. Estimates assume that people consume between 40 and 400 milligrams a day. The intake is much lower for vegetarians than for omnivores. For this, vegetarians also excrete smaller amounts of taurine.
     
    Experts suggest that people who suffer from renal insufficiency or the metabolic disease cystic fibrosis should consume 1,000 to 4,000 milligrams a day
