Hi Lar,

I bought some taurine, 500mg caps, and took about 2 grams, last night, opened em' up and sprinkled em'in my mouth. No immediate, benefits-perhaps a little relaxant effect.

Took about 6 grms today, and i give it a continuing go, until i see my Doc, and we can get a handle on the anxiety issues (which 2 5mg Valiums do sh*t for)-which really are the main cause of me wanting a drink, (don't care about taste-only it's effects-funny that, aye drinkers?)-but hey, being Hospitalised, and injuring yourself from drinking (because you can't/don't won't to stop at 1 or 6 drinks is no way to go, even if i limit myself when drinking, the withdrawal, combined with (having Psych issues) is mental (literally)

It says on the bottle caution if you are taking meds-pregnant,,,wonder why?

Also, it's supposed to have sedative action, and be usefull in Epilepsy-acting as an anti-convolsent, SO WHY DO YOU SAY IT MAY CAUSE INSOMNIA?-because you MAY think it antaganising Melatonin?

Cheers
