Function:
1, On food: used as nutritional supplement.
a. It is used in dairy products, foods for infants, grain products, bean products, complex gourmet and fortified beverages (0.3~0.5g/kg), milk drinking, drinking water (0.1~0.5g/kg)
b. It is suitable for a nutritional supplement of newborns for feeder of non-mother milk and new mothers (Taurine containing in human milk is 3.3~6.2mg/100ml, but only 0.7mg/100ml in milk).
c. It is suitable for a nutritional supplement of the mental worker. It is favorable for development the brain intellect and the faculty of memory (0.3~0.5g/day). Vegans who eat no dairy or eggs are recommended 2g of Taurine taken three times per day for a total of 6g per day.

b. It can be used for the treatment of cold, fever, neuralgia, tonsillitis, bronchitis, rheumatic arthritis and drug poisoning etc.
3. On feed:
a. used as a nutritional supplement of pets. Taurine is an essential amino acid for the cat, which means that the cat cannot synthesize sufficient Taurine from other amino acids. We suggest that its nutrient requirements for cats, added a minimum of 0.2% Taurine in the diet for grown, reproduction and adult maintenance.
