∙ 6y agoTaurine is an amino acid. And it's indeed found in semen. And bile. And some other tissues.
But it's far cheaper to MAKE it than to extract it from animal tissues.
So no, bull sperm, testicles or urine has NEVER been the source for commercial amounts of taurine.

This is the source of the urban legend. Taurine is added because it is believed to be an energy source for some people. Given that this drink is supposed to be for energy, it is more likely that any "energy" is derived from the caffeine and sugar present in the formula than from the Taurine.

Kind of. It's a an aminoethanesulfonic acid found in bile in the lower intestine and also in animal tissue. It can be found in lots of animals, including humans. However, the taurine used in energy drinks is a synthetic.I don't think so. I looked up the meaning of the word "taurine" and it said "of or like a bull; bullish." I think the drink Red Bull (an energy drink) contain taurine. I doubt if they would put bulls urine in a drink, and if they did there would surely be a large number of complaints to the health and safety department.ajh1357@AOL.com answer: actually taurine derives from the word Taurus which means bull and the reason they called it that is because scientists found it in bull bile and extracted the ingredient and they found that it has many health uses such as weight loss and to help fight fatigue and that's why its found in most all energy drinks such as "Redbull" and "monster".
