Abstract: The cluster of risk factors for metabolic syndrome, which includes several diseases like cardiac disease, hypertension, obesity and diabetes, has emerged as a major issue in public health. The majority of mammalian tissues contain taurine, an amino acid that contains sulphur. Although it is possible to produce taurine internally, dietary sources are still the most important. Researchers discovered that taurine has many biological functions, such as reducing blood pressure, protecting cells from ischemia-reperfusion damage, and influencing intracellular calcium concentration. It also has antioxidant, antiatherogenic, and other beneficial benefits. Taurine has effective action to metabolic syndrome, including lowering triglycerides to avoid obesity, according to a lot of research. In this review, we will briefly describe the how taurine in preventing metabolic syndrome, as well as its favourable effects on cardiac, obesity, hyperlipidaemia,diabetes mellitus, and other disorders.
