CLA (conjugated linoleic acid)
CLA stands for conjugated linoleic acid. CLA is naturally found in meat and dairy products and is associated with many different health benefits. CLA is known to reduce the risk of heart disease, fight inflammation, and help control weight. Conjugated linoleic acid is also associated with antioxidant properties and is perhaps best known for its purported cancer-fighting abilities. The range of health-fighting properties of CLA is wide and supported by many scientific studies. Especially recommended for those who do not get enough meat and dairy products in their diet. CLA can improve many aspects of your health, from insulin management in diabetics to weight loss and maintenance, and for bodybuilders, it has been demonstrated that CLA can even increase the rate of muscle growth.
