Taurine 500 mg, 60 capsules

There are approximately 500 amino acids in nature

20 of these amino acids act as building blocks for the proteins found in the human body; they are known as ‘essential amino acids’. These essential amino acids can be classified into the categories ‘essential’, ‘semi-essential’ and ‘non-essential’. Although taurine is considered an amino acid, due to its biochemical structure it is not a true amino acid. Furthermore, it is not incorporated into proteins.  In the body, taurine is found primarily in nerve tissue, the eyes and muscle tissue. Taurine is a semi-essential nutrient for older children and adults, produced mainly in the liver and brain from the sulphur-containing amino acids cysteine and methionine; Vitamin B6, amongst other things, is responsible for this conversion. Infants and young children are not yet able to produce taurine on their own;  taurine is an essential nutrient for them. As the body’s own synthesis is limited, dietary intake is important for maintaining good taurine status, particularly when requirements are higher.  As taurine is found primarily in meat, fish and poultry, vegetarians and vegans are more at risk of an inadequate dietary intake

Vitals, our new brand from 2025

We are constantly on the lookout for brands that represent our ideals: The highest quality, consistent omission of superfluous additives such as titanium dioxide or porcine gelatine, very good value for money and absolute reliability in delivery to us and therefore also to customers.
This is very difficult because such companies are extremely rare among the mass of manufacturers of food supplements that are now on the market. But we have managed to find them again, with Vitals from the Netherlands!

Manufacturer's address: Vitals Voedingssupplementen BV, Pieter Lieftinckweg 29, 1505 HX Zaandam, Netherlands. E-mail: customer service@vitals.eu.
