Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is a natural fatty acid
found in beef, lamb, and cheese, especially from grass-fed
animals. A potent antioxidant, immune stimulant, and
cancer-preventing agent in all species of animals tested,
it also repartitioned their bodies, decreasing fat and fat
cell size while increasing lean body mass.
A human study showed 20 percent reduced body fat over
a 12-week period
without change in diet or exercise. Recent studies
showed CLA caused a 30-80 percent reduction in fat on even
relatively lean lab rats, and breast cancer cell growth
was inhibited 11-20 percent while preventing metastasis to lungs
and bone marrow. CLA decreases allergic and joint
inflammation, improves fat transport across cell membranes,
and lowers blood glucose and insulin levels while
improving insulin sensitivity and energy expenditure.
Our >77 percent CLA safflower concentrate gells
contain about 37 percent each of c9,t11 and t10,c12
isomers, shown to be most
effective for fat control and immune stimulation.
Dosage: Animal studies suggest that 1 gram per
day may offer people some cancer protection, while in
human studies 3-4 grams per day seems to be the dose
needed for fat loss.
Contents: >77 percent CLA, in 100 gel caps of
1000mg each.
