CLA - Conjugated Linoleic Acid.

Its a fatty acid that is found in red meat, dairy, sunflower, safflower and other seeds.

Supposedly FOR SOME, it lessens abdominal fat and helps you burn quickly. It also has immune system boosters and for some, gives them natural energy.

The adverse is that it can actually make you gain weight (especially in the beginning), for some it cause bloat and or intestinal distress until your body gets used to it. And for some, like me who have taken CLA on 2 separate occasions for 2-3 months at a time, it does nothing. It is also expensive because you must take 3500 mgs per day (4 caps a day)for optimum affect and a typical bottle of 90 caps is around $30.00.
