Taurine Powder (free form amino acid) Taurine (2-Aminoethane sulfonic acid) is a conditionally essential free-form amino acid that is the most abundant free amino acid in many tissues and participates in a variety of metabolic processes. Taurine is found at high levels in the heart and skeletal muscle, white blood cells, the central nervous system, and is a building block for all other amino acids. Works as an ion and pH buffer in the heart and skeletal muscles and central nervous system. Taurine is instrumental in preventing loss of potassium from heart muscle. Aids in the digestion of fat, soluble vitamins, and the management of cholesterol levels. Aids electrolyte balance and proper utilization of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium. Improves cell volumization and makes muscles appear larger. Improves anabolic processes and boosts protein synthesis. Maintains glucose uptake. Taurine works synergistically with any form of Creatine. Taurine is different than most other amino aci
