If taurine is a product of methionine and cysteine metabolism, then why are they considered harmful?
Quote: "Taurine is a naturally occurring beta-amino acid produced by methionine and cysteine metabolism."
Quote: "Durk Pearson has been recommending supplementing with taurine for hair loss for decades. This is he says, because taurine down-regulates the oxidation of Cysteine to taurine, leaving more cysteine for the hair, improving both its growth rate and shaft diameter. "
