Essential Fatty Acid. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a slightly modified version of linoleic acid, an important Omega-6 fatty acid.
Dietary consumption of CLA comes mostly from dairy and beef fat, however it is often significantly lower than the levels available via dietary supplements. The body uses CLA to transform fat into energy, which is then utilized in muscle cells. Tonalin CLA in this product is produced from non-GMO safflower seed oil.
