Taurine is essential to cardiac and eye function. It is reported to modulate cardiac activity, possibly by helping to regulate the electrical activity that controls health heart contractions. It has also been shown to have a muscle strengthening effect on the heart. Taurine is an essential amino acid for cats (one that they are unable to manufacture in their bodies).

Supplementation with taurine is helpful for cats or dogs currently or with a history of eating poor quality commercial pet foods made with little meat content. It also may be of benefit to support cardiac function and to help prevent or reduce seizures. Please consult with a holistic veterinarian for guidance if your pet has any diagnosed medical condition.
