Taurine is actually derived from Bull Sperm. When filtered and removed from the semen, you end up with a mix of hormones from the endocrine gland...basically, what gives the bull its spunk.

Why did Europe ban taurine?

Europe hasn't banned taurine. In fact, a study by the European Food Safety Authority in 2003 found no adverse effects for taking 1,000 mg of taurine per kilogram of body weight. Perhaps you are thinking of energy drinks, in which taurine is used. Although, the EFSA has also concluded that the amount of taurine in energy drinks (such as Red Bull) is safe. Red Bull is illegal in France, Denmark, and Norway because it is regarded as a medicine due to the amount of taurine present. Even further so, France has banned the sale of energy drinks with any amount of taurine.

How is taurine made?

I think its is bulls urine. Usually found in energy drinks. Taurine isn't bull's urine . . . the kind found in energy drinks is synthetically made in a lab. (ehow.com explains the process) The taurine in animal food is derived from skeletal and other parts of the protein they are using in their foods. The rumor about the bull's urine began because taurine was first found in the bile of bulls (which is why the root "taur" is now used).

You can conceivably overdose on anything if you consume it to beyond a point of sufficiency. Particularly considering that taurine is found in energy drinks, which are incredibly easy to overdose on, it could be assumed that taurine is dangerous in massive quantities.
