What is Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) ?
CLA is the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid in human
tissues. Bio-CLA is a dietary supplement containing the two
isomers of CLA which are known to be the most biologically active
within the human body. CLA is an important component of cell
membranes. CLA helps maintain normal immune function, being a
precursor of the hormone-like prostanoids, which have an important
role in the immune/inflammatory response. Most CLA in human
tissues is of dietary origin, and is obtained mainly from meat and
dairy products. CLA levels in food are reduced by modern farming
methods and food processing; modern diets with a high fast food
content tend to have high levels of potentially harmful saturated
fats, and are frequently lacking in beneficial PUFAs. CLA should
not be confused with GLA (gamma linolenic acid), another essential
PUFA marketed by Pharma-Nord as Bio-Glandin.
CLA sources
We get CLA from beef and dairy products, but the natural CLA content in
modern food has been reduced by as much as 80% because of the way food is being
processed, which is why most of us get too little CLA in our diet. In order to
get the equivalent of one Bio-C.L.A. capsule through your daily diet, you would
have to eat so much meat or dairy products, all the animal fat would pose a
potential threat to your health. Therefore, a supplement in capsule form is a
healthier and far more convenient way of ensuring the body has adequate amounts
of this vital substance.
How CLA works
Scientific studies of CLA show that when you supplement on this essential
fatty acid you optimize the body's fat and muscle balance by increasing the
release of fat from the fat reserves preserving/increasing muscle mass
increasing the body's metabolism reducing the need for calories It is the
combination of these features that makes Bio-C.L.A. a suitable supplement for
those who wish to reduce their fat stores without losing muscle tissue at the
same time.
Don't forget to exercise
Nothing in life is free, not even weight loss. If you want to see results,
you have to make an effort yourself. A CLA supplement must be accompanied by
regular exercise in order to increase the fat burning effect and the build-up of
healthy muscle tissue. With Bio-C.L.A., however, dieting becomes easier than
ever. With the most advanced scientific approach to weight problems, you can be
sure that you are doing the right thing.

Who can use Bio-C.L.A.?
Since CLA is a natural substance and has no side effects, even if taken in
large dosages, anyone can take a CLA supplement. However, Bio-C.L.A. is
especially suited for those who:
Want to lose weight by increasing the metabolism of fat and build-up of muscle
tissue.
Want to prevent a sudden weight increase after dieting.
Are active in sports and wish to build healthy muscle tissue

Improved balance between fat and muscle Increased fat metabolism Natural
weight reduction Are you planning to lose some weight? Or have you tried
desperately to get back your figure and always ended up weighing more than
before you started your diet? It can be really frustrating but science has
discovered a substance that makes it much easier to lose weight in a natural
way.
The essential fatty acid CLA (stands for conjugated linoleic acid) which has
several important functions in the human body, has one particular feature that
makes it the ideal supplement for anyone on a diet - CLA removes fat and
preserves muscle.
A whole new way of losing weight It may come as a surprise to you, but fat is
not the only thing you lose when you go on a diet. Your muscle mass is also
reduced, and since muscle uses more energy than fat, loss of muscle is not what
you want. Once you return to normal eating, your body is not able to cope with
the sudden increase in calories, and as a result of this impaired metabolism,
you end up putting on weight again.
With a CLA supplement you can help to prevent this situation. CLA increases the
loss of fat and speeds up your metabolism at the same time as preserving your
existing muscle tissue. This way you lose weight in the correct way.
Bio-C.L.A. is intended for use in the following ways:
-
Increase the release of fat from fat deposits
-
to be used in conjunction with slimming treatments
-
to be used following slimming treatments
-
to achieve better results with physical training
