> Scott,
> I just reread the old post of mine that you were referring to, where I asked Larry questions about his comparison of taurine to acamprosate from a previous post. So you were probably wondering if I were going to try to use taurine to prevent tolerance of stimulants. I was just trying to find out if it might have some of that effect if/when the days comes that I might need it.
> -KI've an interesting anecdote to add to the taurine tale. I was exposed to substantial MSG after consuming Chinese take-out without asking for the MSG-restricted version. Doh! I was feeling very ill from the MSG, when I suddenly recalled that an "antagonist" (used loosely) for glutamate was taurine. A couple grams of taurine, and I felt very well indeed.
