About This Product

  • Promotes cardiovascular and cellular health
  • Provides antioxidant support
  • Free of gluten, dairy, soy, and nuts

Taurine is an essential amino acid that exists naturally within our bodies—particularly in our heart, brain, and blood cells. It's known for its ability to promote cardiovascular and cellular health. While it's available in our bodies—and in meat, fish, and dairy—getting enough from diet alone can be difficult, causing taurine levels to fall short.

The Vitamin Shoppe® brand Taurine capsules contain 500mg of taurine per once-daily serving to ensure your body has what it needs to maintain a healthy cardiovascular system and cells.

IBS relief
Moister promoting drugs and supplements didn't help my IBS and actually made it worse. More fiber didn't help at all. Taurine helps the sympathetic nervous system relax and allow better motion. Two at bedtime, and two when you first get up with a cup of coffee and relief. Stimulant supplements like Irwin's Stool-Softener can also help, it's not just for softening as the name suggests.

Misleading label
I was advised to take Taurine for heart palpitations in large quantity. After I got this home and started taking it I realized that it also has a large dose of Vit. B6 mixed in. By taking multiple capsules I was also taking large doses of B6. I bought another product elsewhere that only had Taurine. Since I got the Taurine on a BOGO half price I brought back both bottles. I expected a store credit for the opened bottle and a refund for the unopened bottle but got a store credit for both. Thanks for taking my money and holding on to it and making interest on it while I hold a piece of worthless paper until I need to buy something else in your store which is the only place I can use it (if I don't lose it).

Give an option without B6
I'm sure the quality is fine and I like the price but I need a taurine without B6. I am very sensitive to B6 and am not looking for a redbull substitute ha. If/when you provide such an option, then I will likely buy.

apparently anticonvulsants diminish Taurine levels in the body. I take the supplement to replace the Taurine.

Clearing the Fog
After much prompting by my brother, I took L-Taurine to assist brain function. After just a few days the "fog" began to lift and I was more able to concentrate and function. After taking for some time, I allowed myself to run out. Big mistake. Once I restocked and began taking again I almost immediately felt better. I will not run out again. I take four a day; two in the a.m. and two in the p.m. It really works.

what's the difference between Tyrosine and taurine?
A shopper

Best Answer:  Taurine is an amino acid good for the heart
Taurine is important for the normal physiological functions of the heart, brain and the retina in the eye. It is also required for reproduction and immunity.

Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid L-tyrosine is used to synthesize many neurotransmitters in the brain.

Gloria L
Where is the taurine sorced from? It can be engineered or taken from animal intestines. I'm vegetarian. That's why I need this supplement but It would defeat the purpose if it's animal based
A shopper

Best Answer:  The Taurine in this supplement is synthetic and not from an animal source.

Daniel W.staff
does taurine help with muscle cramps?
A shopper

Best Answer:  Considering the fundamental importance of taurine in physiology, it would be surprising if eliminating taurine deficiency did NOT have some benefit against juscle cramps. I say deficiency because US diets are almost always deficient in taurine (compared to the Okinawan diet, for example). However, much depends on the reason for the cramps. Impaired circulation due to impaired vascular endothelia can be improved by taurine. Lack of substances to produce NO (nitric oxide) might also be relevant -- arginine and citrulline can remedy that. Muscle spasms due to magnesium deficiency is another possibility. In any case, be sure to take adequate AMOUNTS of taurine -- not milligrams, but GRAMS, maybe s or 3 grams, several times per day. Likewise for arginine and citrulline, maybe 2 grams each a couple of times per day.

F. Frank L
Does this contain soy?
C A N.

Best Answer:  (This is a good question, because the label information rules out the presence of various allergens and possible toxins, but does not mention soy.) The synthetic production of taurine seems to have nothing to do with soy; synthetic taurine is created in a laboratory by inducing of a chemical reaction.
