promising productJul 08, 2007
By Amy E. Mitchell
"artist etc"
I've been taking tonalin CLA since March and I have lost 10 lbs. Seriously. I went from 179 to 169, so far. I take this along with chromium and green tea extract twice a day. I haven't changed my exercise routine, though I do exercise almost every day. I also watch my calorie intake, but I was doing that beforehand also. I would think that this would work best for someone without a lot of muscle mass and who is obese/overweight but is exercising with a routine that includes muscle toning, not just aerobics. I do believe that CLA helped break me out of my weight plateau and I will keep using it.

4 stars But # DANGER #Feb 04, 2009
By Jayakumar
"Jay"
Taking this gave me a lot of energy, nearly doubled my jogging time. So it may be breaking fat and producing energy. great. 4 stars.
But it may gradually cause Diabetes and Liver problems.
If you do yahoo search or google for this string :
"Efficacy and safety of dietary supplements containing conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) for the treatment of obesity-evidence from animal and human studies"
You will read scientific studies explaining reactions in liver and insulin resistance.
The same applies for Vitamin world Tonain CLA and all CLA products. Not specific to this one.

CLA dosage misleadingJul 12, 2009
By Nicole
"Live Your Best Life Ever!"
I was excited at first to see 1000mg CLA pills because that is hard to find at this price. They didn't list the dosage so I assumed that was per pill, not!!! It was per dose. This made me mad because the price, based on the dosage, was horrible! I had to take so many of them in each of my stacks that the bottle didn't last long. I got a better deal at walmart.
CLA is an awesome supplement just don't get mislead. If dosage information is not shown, don't buy it!

Tonalin CLA---It's working for me!!Nov 16, 2011
By spayurdog I had gained 60+ pounds in 12 years and with my 50th birthday looming, decided it was finally time to do something about it. I had not exercised in more than a decade, but on 5/23/2011 started walking to and from work (1.5 miles each way), 5 days per week, along with cutting out my daily candy and chips. I did not lose one ounce until taking Tonalin CLA in August, then lost 11 pounds in a month!! I am now also walking 30 minutes on a treadmill 5-6 days a week, in addition to minor weight training 2-3xper week and continue walking to work. Not sure if it's the CLA or increased activity, or both, but I am currently 167 lbs.--down from a high of 215. Being female and 50, I did not think it possible to lose weight after fighting this battle my entire life. Something is working for me now and I can't explain it, but I'm giving some credit to CLA. It's definitely worth a try!!! I am not doing any special eating program, but have significantly cut back on sugars and junk food . I think CLA + decreased calories + increased activity WORKS! I'll update review if I ever reach my goal of 150 lbs. Good luck to all....
