WHAT IS CLA?
Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), is a naturally occurring free fatty
acid found mainly in meat and dairy products, in small amounts. CLA was
discovered by accident in 1978 by Michael W. Pariza at the University
of Wisconsin while looking for mutagen formations in meat during
cooking.
CLA occurs naturally in foods such as milk, cheese, beef, and lamb as
well as many processed foods. This is not only impractical, but
would also have a seriously negative impact on your metabolism due to
the high caloric penalty you would pay.
Qualities of CLA
CLA is a natural, polyunsaturated fatty acid found in small
quantities in many foods. The human body cannot produce CLA. It is
efficiently absorbed in supplement form and only low levels of CLA are
needed to produce therapeutic benefits.
How much should
be taken?
CLA is typically found in capsules or softgels between potencies
between 600mg and 1000mg. All preliminary evidence shows that CLA is
nontoxic and safe at recommended dosages.
The perfect way to save money and use CLA economically. Each bottle contains 1000, 1 gram softgels (standardized for 70% CLA).
We have a limited run of these available in order to gauge demand.
