Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is a naturally occurring polyunsaturated fatty acid found mainly in meat and dairy products. CLA has gained global recognition in the health and sports nutrition industries for its ability to reduce body fat mass, increase lean muscle mass, and improve lipid metabolism.
It consists of multiple positional and geometric isomers of linoleic acid, with cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12 being the most biologically active. Studies have shown CLA’s synergistic effects on fat oxidation, energy expenditure, and anti-inflammatory pathways.
