Bone Faq

No, we're afraid not, many factors go into the production of bones. We specifically use cattle 18 months or younger so the bones are at their densest. Moisture is also incredibly important to monitor during the process as well.

Why use True Course Taurine Toppers?

Our True Course Taurine topper is a meal topper and a supplement. Taurine supports heart function, eye health, immune system function, muscle tissue and also aids multiple other systems as well. Taurine supports many other organs as well and it's an essential component of bile acids. Bile acids are produced in the liver, stored in the gallbladder, and finally they break down fats from foods. Most mammals produce Taurine on their own from precursors. There are multiple steps in producing taurine, but the first is the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine, which makes cysteine, which Taurine is produced from. Cats are the most relevant exception in this case. Cats must consume taurine from their diet.
