CLA: Research Proven to Build Muscle, Reduce Body Fat, and Induce a Optimum
Cellular Environment For Improved Health!
CLA - Conjugated Linoleic Acid - is not a new discovery as some
magazines would have you believe. However, a better understanding of its effects
are leading to potential applications that are extremely new and exciting.
CLA was discovered by accident in 1978 by Michael W. Pariza at the
University of Wisconsin while looking for mutagen formations in meat during
cooking. Although all the intricacies of CLA are not fully
understood, it is widely accepted in the research community that CLA
counterbalances the negative effects of linoleic acid and regulates fat and
protein metabolism in animals. Pariza, director of the Food Research Institute
at the University of Wisconsin said, "growing body of data indicates that CLA
is a newly recognized nutrient that functions to regulate energy retention and
metabolism". CLA can best be described as a "Growth Factor".
Food intake efficiency! CLA has been shown in animal studies to increase
growth rate through increased feed efficiency. In controlled studies, animals
that had their diets supplemented with CLA increased their body protein
(muscle tissue) while at the same time, had a significant decrease in body fat.
This all occurred in the CLA supplemented animals while their food intake
was decreased. Their lean mass increased even though they were eating less! This
indicates that CLA increases feed efficiency and also points to a potent
nutrient repartitioning effect. This significant change in body composition can
also be attributed in part to CLA's effect on immune function. When
CLA levels fall, interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-a are involved in
the accumulation of body fat. CLA has been shown to inhibit the lean
tissue wasting caused by high levels of these cytokines.
Actual human studies are on the way with anticipation of similar outcomes.
CLA may be the most significant bodybuilding nutrient discovered in this
decade. With anti-catabolic effects rivaling even the strongest pharmaceutical
compounds, CLA is a naturally occurring nutrient with the ability to help
you pack on lean muscle, reduce body fat and at the same time possesses health
promoting properties. CLA occurs naturally in foods such as milk,
cheese, beef, and lamb as well as many processed foods. One processed food in
particular that's high in CLA is Cheez Wiz®. But getting enough CLA
from your diet for the preferred benefit would require considerable intake of
these types of foods. This is not only impractical, but would also have a
seriously negative impact on your metabolism due to the high caloric penalty you
would pay. Since this research has surfaced, a more economical and
efficient way to get the required CLA has been devised. Through advanced
lipid technology, a CLA synthesizing process allows for precision intake
through premeasured softgel capsules. This allows for precise CLA intake
at determined time intervals without the high calorie food consumption. Not only
has CLA been shown to increase muscle mass while reducing body fat,
studies have also shown remarkable anti-catabolic, antioxidant, immune
enhancement, and anti-cancer benefits. Several other studies have even revealed
dramatic cholesterol reducing effects. All this from a structured lipid. A
"designer fat" if you would. To the athlete looking to add more muscle and drop
body fat, CLA is a unique discovery that will make accomplishing this
feat easier and faster, all the while having positive effects on immune function
and antioxidant status, as well as cholesterol lowering effects.
