Frequently asked questions
Q What is CLA and how does it support lean muscle?
A bodyshape CLA capsules provide Conjugated Linoleic Acid from Safflower Oil, a natural source of essential Omega 6 fatty acids. Several studies confirm that supplementing with CLA can reduce body fat levels while increasing lean muscle mass - a significant factor in weight mangement programmes. CLA's impact on fat metabolism relates to its beneficial effects on the uptake of fat by the adipocytes (fat cells) from the bloodstream and into the mitochondria of the muscle cells, reducing the need to break down muscle tissue as a source of energy. The effect of providing more energy from fat, both fuels and preserves the muscles, helping increase lean muscle mass and reducing body fat.
