What is CLA?

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA),  Linoleic acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid found predominantly in beef and dairy products. CLA is a popular supplement amongst people who are trying to lose weight, scientific research has been conducted on animals and CLA has proven to be a great fat loss supplement for mice over the years but not so great for humans, however recently this theory is changing in the light of modern research and its fat loss benefits for humans are being highlighted.  CLA is a safe supplement to take, with very few side effects ever being reported and the worst being gastrointestinal symptoms but thats all.  Like with a lot of supplements some work for you some don’t, if you are trying to lose weight why not give this a try, many of my clients swear by this stuff and have taken it on and off for years.
