What is Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA)?
CLA is a naturally occurring fatty acid composed of Omega 6 fatty acids. Conjugated Linoleic Acid is present in dairy and beef. Since a lot of the foods we eat are treated with hormones, CLA levels are depleted making it necessary to add CLA supplementation.
Conjugated Lionleic Acid aids in cognitive health and is also marketed as an antioxidant supplement.
CLA also promotes lean body mass. During a bulking phase, this supplement promotes muscle gain. While in a cutting phase, CLA helps to preserve muscle tone even under intense cardiovascular training. Your body normally targets muscle first for energy. Since CLA is protecting the muscle the body will then turn to stored fat for an energy source.
