The Role Of Conjugated Linoleic Acid In Reducing Body Fat And Preventing Holiday Weight Gain

この研究の注釈:

6 months of 3.2g CLA daily was able to reduce body fat by 1+/-2.2kg relative to placebo independent of metabolic rate, physical activity, and diet.


Conjugated Linoleic Acid Supplementation Alters The 6-mo Change In Fat Oxidation During Sleep

この研究の注釈:

6 months of CLA usage at 4g CLA oil daily (3.2g active CLA isomers; 39.2% c9t11, 38.5% t10c12) in overweight (25-30 BMI) and mostly female persons, found no influence on metabolic rate or 24-hour respiratory quotient, but a statistically significant shift of sleeping fat oxidation and slight weight loss was noted.


Conjugated Linoleic Acid Versus High-oleic Acid Sunflower Oil: Effects On Energy Metabolism, Glucose Tolerance, Blood Lipids, Appetite And Body Composition In Regularly Exercising Individuals

この研究の注釈:

In healthy and exercising normal weight men and women, CLA at 4g daily for 12 weeks was unable to influence parameters of body composition.

Women had reductions in both HDL and LDL, and lower insulin concentrations.


The Effect Of Conjugated Linoleic Acid Supplementation After Weight Loss On Body Weight Regain, Body Composition, And Resting Metabolic Rate In Overweight Subjects

この研究の注釈:

Metabolic rate was found to be increased in this study, which was testing whether CLA could reduce the rate of weight regain after a very-low calorie diet.

The increase in metabolic rate was secondary to CLA influencing more weight regain to lean mass rather than fat mass, when compared to placebo oil, at 1.8 and 3.6g CLA daily for 13 weeks.


Daily Intake Of Conjugated Linoleic Acid-enriched Yoghurts: Effects On Energy Metabolism And Adipose Tissue Gene Expression In Healthy Subjects

この研究の注釈:

Metabolic rate was found to be increased by 4% relative to baseline over 14 weeks of consuming CLA-enriched yoghurt, despite no changes in fat mass or weight being noted; this was in comparison to non-CLA enhanced yoghurt, and without significant dietary control.

Odd method of statistical significance, metabolic rate in relation to overall mass was significant at P=0.07 (not normally accepted) but significant at P=0.03 (accepted) when in relation to fat free mass, which is what is touted in the abstract.
