(More customer reviews)As with all of us, I'm always looking for ways to improve upon the body I've been given. CLA came up in a study I read in 'Health' magazine as a possible 'helpful' supplement to be used in the attempt to lose body fat. The article went on to say that while CLA doesn't eliminate fat, it has been found to reduce the size of fat cells in your body and when 3000-6000mg is taken daily. **According to the information on CLA from Meridian Naturals: CLA - conjugated linoleic acid, which has been shown in studies to increase how fast fat is broken down in fat cells and increase the rate of fat metabolism.
The studies have also said that you must take this supplement for at least 3 months, 3x's a day to reap the benefits. Thus, it's not a quick fix for body fat reduction, but it can assist you in your long term goals.
I've been taking it for 3 months now and have found my body fat percentages steadily dropping, but I'm also exercising and eating better. Is CLA what's helping? I have lost 10 pounds in 5 months, 4" off my waist, 3" off my hips, my abs are showing for the first time in memory, and my percentage of body fat lost (according to caliper readings) is 11%. I drink 6-8 bottles of water a day, exercise 3-4x's a week which includes 25-45 minutes of elliptical cardio and 45 minutes of weight training. My diet hasn't changed dramatically, but I have started eating a small, protein packed breakfast and try to stop eating anything past 7pm. I still eat sweet treats in moderation. The BEST gain has been that after nearly 20 years of having high cholesterol - requiring medication - I now no longer need my meds and have not only normal cholesterol but STELLAR CHOLESTEROL! Probably due to the fat loss and overall health benefits due to exercise, but I think CLA (taken 2x's a day instead of 3 by me...) is a contributing factor.
The pills do not hurt my stomach, nor do I feel any changes after I take them such as 'jitters' felt with caffeine laden diet pills. I do take them with food, but that's only because I tend to have a fussy gut. I believe this supplement assists my body in metabolizing fat, but it's not a magic pill - just a helpful one.
If you are having trouble dropping stubborn body fat, give it a try. Just don't expect the pill to do all the work!
