I LOVE TAURINE, I'M SO HAPPY I CAN DRINK PIG LIVER EXTRACT IN TASTY LIQUID FORM
GONE ARE THE DAYS OF RELYING ON RAW EGGS FOR MY MEAT EXCLUSIVE AMINO ACIDS
For anyone curious, the taurine in energy drinks is almost certainly lab created, not pig liver or bull testicles or whatever. Still funny though.
I feel like synthetic taurine is a lot less available than actual pig liver, since the latter is an underused byproduct of a massive industry. I would be happy if I were wrong.
Synthetic taurine is everywhere, just search Amazon. It's sold alongside vitamins.
That is fair I give you that, but being sold on Amazon is no indication of the legitimacy of a product, tbh.
