CLAs
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) helps to promote the fat-burning process in your body. According to Women's Health, CLAs specifically promotes the process of burning fats in your muscles, where the bulk of calorie burning takes place. A CLA supplement can further boost your fat-burning process in your body, which can give you a slimmer waistline.
Josh Axe, MD, says that this acid is the name that is given to chemicals found in a fatty acid called linoleic acid. Josh further explains that sources of the acid are found in the full-dairy products, beef, and butter that you eat and drink. Some healthy fats do in fact help you to burn fat-- as crazy as that may sound!
Josh further explains that CLAs have many health benefits. Some of these health benefits besides promoting weight loss include stronger muscles, anticancer effects, improving digestion, reducing food allergies, and stronger bones. It's almost like why wouldn't you take this supplement when it can also help your health in so many ways in addition to your weight loss?
