WHAT IS IT? Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA for short) is a saturated fatty acid found in some plant oils and animal fats*.
WHAT DOES IT DO? CLA appears to positively influence the rate of fat oxidation, and is seen by some as a revolutionary approach to fat loss. A second and equally exciting prospect, is that CLA may also accelerate muscle growth. With an increasing number of studies providing evidence, CLA is quickly becoming a staple in the supplement arsenal of those athletes who are serious about definition.
WHEN DO I TAKE IT? CLA is often used before exercise to increase fat oxidation (as well as to supply a supplementary form of energy), but can also be used with meals or between meals. CLA could also used at various times throughout the day to assist muscle growth, and possibly to reduce muscle catabolism.
