I find taurine actually gives me awful liver pains. Is it a sign it's clearing something out or what? I'm unsure
Could be gallbladder as it forces bile production and may even expel and gallstone if there is one. I doubt taurine hurts the liver in any way.
Eire24 reported similar issues to mine on a starch free diet, as you know one of my assumptions was that it could have to do with better hormonal profile and increase in a formerly sluggish bile flow (stools were quite clear, taurine helped). Not sure if that makes sense though as I don't seem to have issues with bile flow now ( colour of stools) and still get the pain if I ingest too much sucrose/fructose (possibly even more so in the liquid form).
