and can improve digestion if a person is not moving bile properly.
It stabilizes cell membranes to and can relieve some pain. There is a post on our Trigeminal Neuralgia forum who uses it for pain.

I use the Puritan's pride product. But Taurine tends to be easy to tolerate and not expensive. Most of the discount websites sell it.
iHerb, Vitacost and Swanson's.

I've used it for many years for my gall bladder issues, but just started a year or so ago for the higher dose of 1000mg a day for my tinnitus. It has worked very well for me. I get about 80 to 90% reduction of tinnitus. If you stop taking it however the tinnitus returns. So the taurine is only suppressing it and not a cure.
MsD: thank you so, so much. The tinnitus is horrible for me. I will have to try this. How long does it take for it to work? I have a hard time with this site - I did not know you had responded to this. Thank you again - douglas P.S. i was forced to remove the link from your message.....very strange.....
