CLA - For Fat Loss

CLA - Conjugated Linoleic Acid

CLA Capsules have been around for years, and still seem to be ever popular in the Fat Loss supplements. Reflex Nutrition has recently added top quality CLA to their range, and, as expected from Reflex, their CLA supplement represents exceptional value for money. 90 x 1000mg Capsules are the best value CLA capsules on the market. hence the reason we have added this CLA product to our fat loss supplement range.
That's enough from me, Here's what Reflex have to say about their CLA supplement.

Today at Reflex Nutrition, we are devoting considerable resources to researching the benefits of many different areas of nutritional supplementation. CLA is a new area, and we're now proud to introduce the strongest CLA capsule on the market.

CLA - A Lipid with Promising Potential Benefits:We have examined a number of lipids in our quest for those that offer genuine potential for fat loss and increased lean mass. CLA or Conjugated Linoleic Acid is one of the more promising and the body of research is beginning to build up to an impressive dossier. Several studies show that CLA has an ability to reduce body fat and enhance lean mass. Whilst other studies are indicating cholesterol lowering effects along with anti-carcinogenic properties !

What is CLA ?Conjugated Linoleic Acid is a general term for a mixture of conjugated dienoic isomers of linoleic acid(C18:2 n-6). Several positional isomers can be distinguished. However, the two predominant isomers arecis9,trans11 and trans10,cis12. CLA is present as a natural compound in meat and dairy products.

Reflex CLA contains a special 50:50 mix:Since c9,t11 and t10,c12 are believed to be active isomers, we have dedicated our research to the development of CLA with a higher purity of these two isomers than is normally obtained from other brands.The resulting product ensures better, faster results and better value for money.

How does CLA work ?Studies show that CLA works in a number of ways to help you achieve your diet goals. CLA interferes with a substance in your body called lipoprotein lipase that helps store fat in your body. CLA helps your body use its existing fat for energy. CLA increases lean muscle tissue, which naturally slims your body (helping to strengthen and vitalise your body). And the more muscle you have, the more calories your body uses in order to function, thereby speeding up the fat burning process.

Studies Confirm CLA's Action:Dr. Michael Pariza of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, co-discoverer of CLA, announced the results of the first human clinical trial involving 20 men and women, conducted by Erling Thom, Ph.D. of MedStatResearch Ltd. in Lillestrom, Norway.

"A significant reduction of body fat is obtained during a treatment period of 3 months with CLA capsules,while no reduction is obtained in a comparable placebo treated group," was stated in a recent study -The double-blind, placebo-controlled study confirmed what all previous animal studies on CLA have documented, CLA's patented ability to reduce body fat and improve lean muscle mass by improving the way the body utilises nutrients and acting as a powerful antioxidant.Pariza said the active group receiving CLA showed a 20 percent reduction in body fat percentage, or an average reduction of seven pounds of fat. Unique to this type of study, the participants weighed 156 pounds on average and were instructed not to change their diet or exercise patterns. Thus, the participants were not obese; they actually had a very normal body mass index of less than 25, Dr.Pariza reported.

High Strength:Reflex Nutrition's state-of-the-art CLA supplement, derived from natural sunflower oil, is also found naturally in red meats and dairy products. But to get the same amount of CLA contained in two Reflex CLA soft gel capsules, you would have to eat six pounds of beefburger meat, or 50 one-ounce slices of processed cheese, or 40 four-ounce servings of ice cream ! That's a lot of unwanted calories and quite obviously not practical in any sense !Each 1000mg CLA capsule provides 800mg of Conjugated Linoleic Acid, which is easily assimilated into the body. CLA capsules are very easy to use, just take one capsule with each meal and before you know it,you could have that ripped body you've always wanted !
