Nutraceuticals World, Sept, 2005
A two-year study published in The Journal of Nutrition has concluded that long-term supplementation with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in the form of Tonalin CLA is safe and well tolerated. Furthermore, it confirmed that taking CLA decreases body fat mass (BFM) and maintains lean body mass (LBM), and so also aids weight management, reducing the potential "yo-yo" effect often associated with diet plans. Overweight subjects who took 3.4 grams of CLA per day lost body fat in the first 12 months of the study and were able to avoid regaining that fat in the second 12 months. The results of the study corroborate and expand upon earlier findings, published last spring in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, which revealed that CLA reduced body fat mass in overweight, but otherwise healthy adults by as much as 9%.
