Tauroursodeoxycholic acid, according to Wikipedia, is a bile salt that is found natrually occurring in the body, it usually exhist in the form of sodium salt. When regular bile salts reach the intestines, they can be metabolized by bacteria into UDCA and then later bound to a Taurinemolecule to become TUDCA.  Bile is naturally synthesized via cholesterol, consisting of compounds including taurochenodeoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, and chenodeoxycholic acid.
