[SCITEC] Taurine

Taurine occurs naturally in foods of animal origin, but it is practically absent from foods of plant origin. Therefore Taurine levels can be lower in vegans than in a group on a standard mixed diet.
It is clear that Taurine is a very important organic acid involved in a large number of metabolic processes in the body. Many people are aware that Taurine is regularly used as an ingredient in energy drinks.
