Taurine is an important amino acid because it is the building block for all of the other amino acids.  Taurine is found in high concentrations in the white blood cells, skeletal system, central nervous system and heart muscle.  It is also a component of bile which helps to break down fats, control cholesterol and absorb fat-soluble vitamins.  Taurine has a protective effect on the brain, the heart and the eyes.  

Individuals that can benefit from taurine include those with edema, atherosclerosis, blood sugar issues, hypertension, zinc deficiency, physical or emotional stress, breast cancer, candida overgrowth, alcoholics, diabetics and children with Downs syndrome or muscular dystrophy.
