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.
An organic acid, taurine is derived from cysteine (an amino acid). As cysteine contains sulfur, & taurine is derived from cysteine, taurine is also classed as a sulfonic acid. The structural formula of taurine is C2H7NO3S. In 1827, German chemists Leopold Gmelin and Friedrich Tiedemann isolated taurine from ox bile. Bile is the digestive juice produced in the liver. Stored in the gallbladder, bile helps the body digest food, particularly fats.
