“…Taurine is a semi-essential amino acid with sulfur content. It constitutes about 0.1% of human body weight and plays vital roles in anti-oxidation, osmoregulation, calcium ion regulation, cell membrane stabilization, and inflammation [ 5 - 7 ]. Dietary intake is necessary to maintain taurine levels since its natural production in the body is relatively low.…”

This review explores the potential benefits of taurine in ameliorating the metabolic disorders of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D), highlighting the factors that bridge these associations. Relevant articles and studies were reviewed to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between obesity and the development of T2D and the effect of taurine on those conditions. The loss of normal β-cell function and development of T2D are associated with obesity-derived insulin resistance. The occurrence of diabetes has been linked to the low bioavailability of taurine, which plays critical roles in normal β-cell function, anti-oxidation, and anti-inflammation. The relationships among obesity, insulin resistance, β-cell dysfunction, and T2D are complex and intertwined. Taurine may play a role in ameliorating these metabolic disorders through different pathways, but further research is needed to fully understand its effects and potential as a therapeutic intervention.
