Taurine is a white crystalline powder that dissolves well in water but is almost insoluble in alcohol and organic solvents. In mammals' bodies, it is synthesized naturally and is a key component of bile. Industrially, it is obtained from ethanolamine and is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine. For humans, taurine plays an important role in maintaining heart, liver, kidney, and eye health. It helps normalize metabolic processes, regulates enzyme activity, stabilizes the hormonal system, and strengthens immunity. It is also known for its anticonvulsant properties and ability to lower blood pressure.
