Description
Primaforce’s Max CLA features scientifically studied CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) and sunflower/safflower oil. CLA is a naturally occurring free fatty acid found in natural safflower oil, meat and dairy products. CLA is a potent antioxidant that enhances immunity, promotes healthy cholesterol levels, supports fat metabolism and builds lean muscle.
Research suggests that CLA can increase lean muscle mass while reducing body fat. A double-blind, placebo-controlled study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, reports that CLA supplementation safely reduces body fat and increases lean body mass, without a change in diet or exercise. CLA suppresses lipoprotein lipase, an enzyme responsible for removing fat from the blood. When this enzyme is inhibited, a reduced amount of fat is broken down and stored.
CLA also has antioxidant, anti-cancer, and cholesterol-lowering effects. Research suggests that CLA can decrease LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase HDL (good) cholesterol. Animal studies found that CLA may lower the risk of certain cancers including breast, colon, prostate, lung, and melanoma cancers.
