Conjugated Linoleic Acid

Conjugated Linoleic Acid is a healthy fat which may be beneficial for aiding a weight management program and in gaining lean muscle mass. Studies have shown that CLA supplementation does not actually reduce the size of fat cell (fat loss), it prevents them from getting bigger. Additional benefits of CLA supplementation include:

• Increasing the metabolic rate
• Reducing abdominal fat
• Lowering cholesterol
• Reducing insulin resistance
• Improving immune system function

CLA supplementation is more beneficial using natural forms over synthetic. There is currently no recommended daily dosage for CLA, but research suggests that three to four grams per day offers the most benefit.
