CLA

CLA stands for Conjugated Linoleic Acid”

It’s a naturally occurring free fatty acid found generally in small doses in meat, and dairy products.

All CLA research to date has proven that it WILL build muscle, REDUCE body fat, and induce an optimum cellular environment in your body for good health.

The problem is to achieve the levels of CLA you need, it would require eating an absurd amount of meat and dairy products. The negative effects would far outweigh the positives.

Random fact about CLA: One processed food that contains high levels of CLA is Cheez Wiz… though I don’t recommend going that route.

Ideally the best way to get CLA is through supplementation. Through advanced lipid technology, a CLA synthesizing process allows for precision intake through premeasured softgel capsules. This allows for precise CLA intake at determined time intervals without the high calorie food consumption. Not only has CLA been shown to increase muscle mass while reducing body fat, studies have also shown remarkable anti-catabolic, antioxidant, and immune enhancement benefits.

CLA has shown to create increased feed efficiency. What that means is that it allows your body to garner the maximum positive effects from each meal. It increases muscle tissue, and decreases body fat. Studies have shown that while taking CLA supplementation, even with a decrease in food intake it still promotes lean mass growth. So, for those looking to lose weight it works great in conjunction with a clean diet.

Like L-Carnitine it is not a stimulant, nor a thermogenic. CLA simply a naturally fatty acid that when taken in proper doses, promotes a healthier body. For those looking to lose weight naturally I recommend a supplementation regimen of both CLA & L-Carnitine
