Does the Taurine in Red Bull Really Come from Bull Semen?
Taurine is the ingredient in Red Bull and other energy drinks that helps muscle function, may aid athletic performance and endurance, helps reduce anxiety, and appears to aid blood sugar regulation and cardiac health. It’s an organic molecule (not an amino acid) named for the Latin taurus, which means ox or bull, because originally taurine was extracted from bull semen and ox bile.
