Now CLA 800mg, 180 Gels

Comments about Now CLA 800mg, 180 Gels:

I heard plenty of good stuff about CLA, and decided to go with NOW's brand since they are pretty trusted in the supplement community. I have been taking it for about 3 weeks now, taking 3 pills, 3 times a day, generally an hour before every major meal. The thing about CLA is that the benefits are very minute, and the studies done on it showed perhaps only a pound or two lost a month, which for someone who is starting a good diet and healthy exercise program, would be hard to notice.
I have lost weight though since I have taken it, whether the CLA was contributing to it is questionable, but I am going to go with the idea that it is actually working, and helping me keep lean mass as I hit the gym. Only downside is the fact you have to take 9 pills a day. But luckily they are very easy on the stomach, especially when taking them on an empty stomach.

This CLA is a miracle for removing visceral fat around your organs while cleaning your digestive tract. The first 2 weeks are kind of tough as it cleans out your system of all the excess "sludge", but after that you will notice greater energy and your mid section shrinking. Great for people with lots of body weight in their upper body, "apple shaped folks".

Based on the recommendations I've taken 3.2 grams (4 Softgells) of now CLA per day consistently, maintained a consistent 1500-2000 calorie diet depending on activity level and exercised 3-5 times a week to include Tae Kwon Do classes, Wrestling practice, Calisthenics and Tabata Intervals on a Schwinnn AirDyne, Elliptical and Dumbbell Thrusters.

The Results:
I've used a recommended dosage and it has failed to impress over the long haul, I've lost 3lbs over 38 days. Honestly, I'd have expected to lose more even without the CLA. I had a slight set back over the weekend my grandma passed away. It was difficult to eat well, count calories and exercise while traveling and eating "funeral food". However I didn't do enough damage over 2 days of travel to off set the good that's advertised with the product. This is the first Now Foods product that I have been disatisfied with, I am surprised by the lack of performance.
