Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)

[Szczepankiewicz]

Has anyone done any research or used this supplement? I am finding mixed reviews on the web (similar to Creatine). I can post the links if you are interested in what I have found.


Thanks,

I am reading mixed reviews. Most people who say it's good want to sell you some... go figure....

The flipside

http://www.ars.usda.gov/is/AR/archive/aug01/cla0801.htm

I have seen prices from $20 a bottle to $40 a bottle. Serving size is 1.0 to 1.5 grams for 1 capsule. Recommended dose is two capsules three times daily (with meals).

Also stated: no known side effects. Everything you put in your body results in something happening.

The article I posted previous sites "numerous studies" have been done, but doesn't list a bibliography so you can see the studies.

Alarm bells are going off.....

More to follow.
