STUBBORN BELLY FAT?: Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA)

How does it work?It lowers the melting point for fat burning. It appears that CLA blocks fat cells from growing bigger or swelling by influencing enzymes that affect fat growth. CLA also seems to increase the speed of fat burning.

What kind of results should I expect? Recent human studies have shown that taking CLA, at least 3.4 grams a day, led to a significant decrease in body fat mass and the diameter of the abdomen in obese subjects, but not body weight.

What does this mean? Remember, when you are exercising and weight lifting, you may not actually lose weight, but you will lose inches and increase lean body mass. For instance, if you lose 5 pounds of fat and gain 4 pounds of muscle, the end result is only a loss of 1 pound.

Are you spritzing with olive oil? Why not try a little coconut oil?
