|
|
There seem to be a lot of slimy commercials out these days promoting CLA as the "CURE FOR BELLY FAT!"
The hard science is this
1. CLA does work for weight loss, and has shown an ability to lose fat in the belly region. What the studies show us is that if you take CLA consistently for over 6 months you will lose about 1-2 lbs more than you would had you not taken CLA. Check out our article here for the last word on the subject

So does this mean you can take just take CLA and your belly fat will magically go away? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!
The products that are pitching CLA as a belly fat miracle are guilty of slimey marketing. The idea that taking CLA is all you need to do is total, complete and utter crap.
CLA is a nice tool, it's not a foundation or a cure for anything, belly fat included. |

I've seen those ads, too. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought they were a little fishy. |

What is CLA? I am sorry. I am new to wanting to lose weight. I do not know the terminologies. |

It seems that one thing that usually catches womans attention is something that claims to get rid of belly fat. I have to admit, I am one of those who will try anything to loose it. |

CLA is Conjugated Linoleic Acid. It's a form of Omega 6 fatty acid (actually a cluster of different fractions of Omega 6).
There is good research that shows CLA helps with fat in the belly region, but you have to put it in perspective. It's not a cure all. You can't just take CLA and do nothing else and think it's going to get rid of belly fat. |

Isn't these are all rumors, nothing can work that way as they are shown in the Ad's. Inspite of that their usage, make our body prone to diseases or flexible to gain weight.. |
