Natural Health

Tonalin CLA supplements are getting some positive reviews these days from a number of reputable sources. I struggle with an extra 10 or 15 pounds and I need some sort of outside help to get me on the right track. In the event that CLA doesn’t work for me then I have lost nothing because there are no known side effects and the cost of a one or two month supply is fairly minimal. It’s enough to get me interested in trying them for a month or two.

I am impressed with what I have read so far on the subject. The two most interesting reports have come from two research universities in North America. One university is is American and is located in Wisconsin. The other university is Canadian and can be found in Guelph, Ontario. Both of these controlled scientific studies claim that Tonalin CLA really helps overweight people lose weight and maintain their new weights.

The Canadian study was conducted first and was based out of the University of Guelph in Ontario. The study was conducted in November and December and was particularly focused on monitoring the potential weight change over the Christmas holidays. It was an eight week study and studied 60 over weight adults. Thirty people took a CLA pill everyday while the other thirty people took a placebo pill. The results were simply remarkable. The CLA group lost weight in the time period leading up to the holidays and didn’t gain any weight over the holidays even when they didn’t exercise and ate loads of holiday treats. The placebo group gained some weight leading up to the holidays and then gained even more weight over the holidays.

The next year or the year after that, a group of nutritionists from Wisconsin attempted to redo the Canadian study. In this study they used 40 overweight adults and they studied them for six months. This study got the same results. Also in this study the CLA group claimed to have lost significant weight from the belly region. The medical community was very pleased with this as belly fat can lead to heart disease which is a major killer of Americans

Both the Canadian and American studies made sure that that all of the participating subjects consumed approximately the same amount of calories per day. Furthermore, all of the subjects had the same amount of daily exercise. By controlling for diet and exercise, the research teams could make certain that it was the CLA pill that was the catalyst for any changes.

I find these research studies to be entirely credible. Research scientists at two respectable North American Universities designed, conducted and drew results from these studies. I am persuaded. I am going to start taking Tonalin CLA while continuing with my regular healthy diet and moderate exercise regime.
