Mafic is an adjective describing a silicate mineral or igneous rock that is rich in magnesium and iron, and is thus a portmanteau of magnesium and ferric. Most mafic minerals are dark in color, and common rock-forming mafic minerals include olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Common mafic rocks include basalt, diabase and gabbro.
Other good natural sources of taurine include beef, lamb, dark chicken meat, eggs, most dairy products, seaweed, krill and brewerâs yeast. Raw meat is fairly rich in taurine, comparable to fish, but cooked varieties typically have only 10 milligrams of taurine per ounce. To increase the amount of taurine in your meat, consider eating it rare or medium-rare. Organ meats such as liver and heart contain more taurine than choice cuts of flesh.
Taurine. Taurine is a metabolite of the amino acid L-cysteine. Taurine is concentrated in highly active tissues like the brain, retina, skeletal and heart muscle. Taurine helps the nervous system generate impulses and, by stabilizing cell membranes, maximizes the body's response to those impulses.Taurine can be obtained through the diet through meats, sea vegetables, and fish. Vegetarians who do not consume meat should consider using a taurine supplement.aurine helps the nervous system generate impulses and, by stabilizing cell membranes, maximizes the body's response to those impulses.
