Comment:
I get migraine headaches from MSG. No pain killer helps. I found references foe Taurine being effective and it does work if I am out and get MSG or one of its hydrolyzed cousins the headache starts up. Taking Taurine gives me relief.

Comment:
Five years ago I had heart rhythm concerns. I took taurine supplements and ended the concern in about 2 weeks. I stopped taurine supplementation 3 months ago and the heart rhythm concerns reappeared. Two weeks ago I started taking 2 grams of taurine daily again and the heart rhythm concerns are now gone. I have to conclude taurine is a valid remedy for this.

Comment:
I recently became highly allergic to MSG. Migraines & nausea were daily issues. I read on line that Taurine could help. Wow, what a difference, I still have to watch what I eat, but I have not had a migraine since I started taking it. Life saver for people who are allergic to MSG.
