Taurine Double Strength 1,000mg 100VC
What is Taurine?
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid which is not utilized for protein synthesis, but is mainly found free in most tissues, especially throughout the nervous system. It functions in tissues by stabilizing cell membranes, aiding the transport of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells. Taurine helps to generate and regulate nerve impulses and aids in the maintenance of fluid balance; it is also used by the body in visual pathways, as well as in the brain and nervous system, where it works together with glycine and GABA as a neurotransmitter.

Buy productWhat is Boron?
Boron is a biologically active trace mineral that affects calcium, magnesium and phosphorus metabolism. Boron is known to support bone strength and structure.
Boron is essential to plant growth and in turn finds its way into the human diet. Boron is present in plant foods such as fruits (especially plums, grapes, and avocados), vegetables, nuts, and legumes.
Despite its availability in nature, ingesting adequate amounts of boron can be difficult as Boron levels in plant food may be low and modern dietary habits indicate people do not eat enough fruit and vegetables.
