taurine-500-mg-ARG Servings per Container: 50 Natural Antioxidant and Buffer Support Taurine 1,000 mg from Allergy Research Group is a semi-essential amino acid that plays a specialized role as an ion and pH buffer in the body, and is also an antioxidant. Taurine, or 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, was originally discovered in ox bile and was named after taurus, or bull. It supports neurological development and helps regulate the level of water and mineral salts in the blood. It is also thought to have antioxidant properties. Serving as a buffer means it tends to either bind or release hydrogen ions to retain a specified pH. And taurine is also critical for a number of metabolic processes, such as stabilizing cell membranes in electrically active tissues, such as the brain and heart. It also has functions in the gallbladder, eyes, and blood vessels.
