Review: Saved my cats life - I bought this product as a last result. I was watching my cat slowly die. Her fur was dry. She was vomiting every day. At least once. She was struggling to breathe. Laid with her face to wards and as close to the air vent as she could get. She was always so hot. She was so sick and i couldn't afford the hundreds of dollars a vet visit would be. We are are a retired couple living on a one income fixed income. Only his. After sprinkling about a quarter teaspoon a day on her wet food…for the past few months…she is back to her old self. She is Breathing normal. Her fur is shiny and silky. She isn’t throwing up daily like she was. She still does some…but not like she use to. She wants to stay outside more. It’s 100 degrees right now..and she is laying under the tree in the yard.. I will say, I prayed very hard for her too. And i just did all i could do..and stood on faith… Praise the Lord! She is well and no longer sick. Review: One Of Those Supplements That Keep Showing Up - This is one of those supplements that kept popping up while I was researching wellness and nutrition, so I decided to add it to my routine. NOW Foods has always been a brand I’ve trusted, and this powder is clean, mixes easily, and has very little taste, making it simple to add to water or another drink. I appreciate that it’s pure taurine with no unnecessary fillers. The container lasts a long time, and the value is excellent compared to capsules. Sometimes you come across a supplement that seems to have earned a permanent spot in a lot of people’s daily routines. This has become one of those for me. ## Features - NERVOUS SYSTEM HEALTH* - VEGAN AND NON-GMO/HEALTHY VISUAL FUNCTION* - CERTIFICATIONS/CLASSIFICATIONS: Dairy Free, Egg Free, Halal, Kosher, Made without Gluten, Non-GMO, Soy Free, Vegan/Vegetarian - GMP Quality Assured: A-rated, third-party certification means that every aspect of the NOW manufacturing process has been examined.

The containers I have (for making cat food) only list the IL address. I contacted NOW after searching NOW's website and could not find anything that would answer your question. This was their response:"Thank you for your inquiry. As with most USP amino acids, Taurine is sourced from China. We quality test the material in our US lab and use it in our formulations.We obtain 4,000+ raw materials. Because of the realities of the supply chain, these can come not only from the U.S. but from all over the world. Some materials are from China; sometimes by necessity. One reason is that compared to here in the U.S., China has far more non-GMO corn and soy from which some ingredients are made. Some of the raw materials that we do source from China are pharmaceutical grade; by definition of known - and in fact the highest - quality.Of course, we audit our suppliers and test all of our raw materials for identity, strength, physical properties, environmental contaminants (including microbes, heavy metals, and pesticides), and adulterants (such as pharmaceuticals) as specified. Some raw materials are traditional Chinese botanicals sourced from their native region, which is appropriate and expected.So country of origin is less important to us than the integrity of the raw materials, as tested to our stringent specifications and proven to be pure and potent. Our labs’ capabilities are more advanced and our specifications therefore can be stricter than most companies'.https://www.nowfoods.com/supplements/quality-safety"I looked up USP referenced in their reply and this one explains it fairly well:http://qualitymatters.usp.org/what-letters-usp-mean-label-your-medicineAlso, from Wikipedia:"In 1993, about 5,000â€"6,000 tons of taurine were produced for commercial purposes: 50% for pet food and 50% in pharmaceutical applications.5 As of 2010, China alone has more than 40 manufacturers of taurine. Most of these enterprises employ the ethanolamine method to produce a total annual production of about 3,000 tons.6"Although NOW references USP in their reply to my inquiry, it is NOT on the label. If you read the web page listed above, this indicates they do not have the USP oversight.That said, so much is now sourced elsewhere that you can never be sure where anything comes from. At some point you either pull into your shell and do not buy anything, or take the Indiana Jones' "leap of faith" and put some trust into the companies providing products (not just taurine).BTW, if the taurine is for yourself, there are "natural" sources that provide high amounts of this amino acid - also from Wikipedia - it occurs naturally in meat and fish. If you are vegetarian, then you may have no choice but to trust these products, as Wikipedia also indicates vegans have reduced taurine levels in their system. If it is for making cat food, you really have to trust someone as this is a critical ingredient. Also, from what I gather on reading all this information, this is a non-natural source, i.e. it would not be extracted from meat or fish, but rather 'produced', which would be the same for all companies that sell taurine.In summary, although there may be a/some taurine product(s) available out there that are not made in or sourced from China, it may be very difficult to find. If you find one that says mfg in USA, you STILL do not know where it was sourced. Whether China or some other non-US source, you either have to trust the 'parent' company, or do without.P.S. posted comment to other reply suggesting bulksupplements - their response was it is also sourced in China **Q: what is expiration dates? if I were to order 4 to 6 bottles how far out are expiration dates?????** A: I have had my 8 oz. Now Taurine powder for several months now (I use it with my son and dog who have seizures. I'm not 100% certain if it helps but my son's Mayo Clinic neurologist expressed interest in our use of it with our son. It's something that is being looked at to help with seizures.). I looked at the bottom and it expires 05/16. It will be long gone before that date. **Q: Is this taurine from a vegetarian source? If not, what is the source?** A: "it says vegetarian/vegan on the label." I believe what this means is it is "safe" for vegetarians and vegans in that it doesn't come from an animal source. Taurine supplements are manufactured. Our bodies produce some, but we generally get more from animal based products, mainly meat. It is essential to add to cat food, if you make your own. **Q: how many mg of taurine per serving?** A: 1/4 level teaspoon equals 1 gram (1000 mg) of Taurine ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saved my cats life *by B***N on July 21, 2026* I bought this product as a last result.

Good product at a reasonable price. Needs a proper balance of all electrolytes to be more effective. Particularly salt. Just as good if not better than many work out supplements which are multiple times more expensive. I find this brand to have bioavailable supplements unlike many cheap brands that can’t be absorbed. ## Frequently Bought Together - NOW Foods Supplements, Taurine Pure Powder, Nervous System Health*, Amino Acid, 8-Ounce - NOW Foods Supplements, Glycine Pure Powder, Promotes Restful Sleep*, Neurotransmitter Support*, 1-Pound - NOW Foods Supplements, Magnesium Bisglycinate Powder, Enzyme Function*, Nervous System Support*, 8-Ounce --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2870070-supplements-taurine-powder-amino-acid-8-oz](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2870070-supplements-taurine-powder-amino-acid-8-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
