Taurine Supplement. Taurine is an amino acid, a chemical that is a required building block of protein. It is made in our body. The brain, heart, and retina (a tissue at the back of the inner eye) contain large amounts of taurine. Taurine is also a part of the fluid produced by the liver.
While taurine is sometimes called an amino acid, and indeed is an acid containing an amino group, it is not an amino acid in the usual biochemical meaning of the term, which refers to compounds containing both an amino and a carboxyl group.aurine is essential for cardiovascular function, and development and function of skeletal muscle, the retina, and the central nervous system. Taurine is conjugated via its amino terminal group with chenodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid to form the bile salts sodium taurochenodeoxycholate and sodium taurocholate.
