Taurine, a free amino acid, is one of the most essential substances in the body. But as we age, taurine levels decline.
Research has found that taurine can promote new cell formation in the area of the brain associated with learning and memory.
Taurine also enhances neurites, tiny projections that help brain cells communicate with each other.
Past research has also shown the ability of taurine to maintain and support:
Cardiovascular health
Insulin sensitivity
Modulation of the immune system
Regulation of the central nervous system
Liver function
Eye health
Hearing function
