Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is CLA and what is it used for?
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is a natural omega-6 fatty acid that, in BodyWorld CLA, is derived from the seeds of the safflower plant. One serving (2 capsules) contains 2000 mg of safflower oil, of which 1600 mg is pure CLA. This fatty acid contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels, with the beneficial effect obtained from a daily intake of 10 g of linoleic acid. CLA is a popular supplement, particularly among people involved in fitness and strength training who monitor their body composition.
When is the best time to take CLA – morning or evening?
There is no set time to take BodyWorld CLA. What matters more is taking the capsules with a meal containing at least a small amount of fat, as CLA is fat-soluble. Many users take CLA with breakfast or lunch, while others prefer an evening meal. The key is to take 2 capsules regularly every day at the same time to maintain a constant level of CLA in the body. Timing in relation to training is not critical for this product.
Does BodyWorld CLA have any side effects?
According to its ingredients, the product contains only safflower oil and a capsule made from gelatine, glycerol and purified water, with no added stimulants or artificial substances. This reduces the risk of adverse reactions at the recommended dose of 2 capsules daily. Conjugated linoleic acid is generally considered a well-tolerated fatty acid, but as with any food supplement, you should not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you have any health conditions or take medication for cholesterol, we recommend consulting a doctor before use.
Is BodyWorld CLA suitable for vegans?
No, BodyWorld CLA is not suitable for vegans or strict vegetarians, as the capsule shell is made from gelatine, which is of animal origin. The active contents themselves, safflower oil from the safflower plant, are plant-based; only the capsule material is unsuitable. If you are looking for CLA in a vegan form, you will need to choose a product with a plant-based capsule, such as one made from cellulose. This information is particularly important for customers who strictly follow a vegan or vegetarian diet.
Does BodyWorld CLA contain allergens?
No, according to the manufacturer, the product does not contain allergens. It consists exclusively of safflower oil and a capsule (gelatine, glycerol, purified water), without common allergens such as gluten, lactose, soya or nuts. Nevertheless, if you have a specific allergy or intolerance, we recommend always checking the current ingredients on the packaging, as formulations may change over time. People with an allergy to sunflower seeds should be cautious, as safflower belongs to the same plant family.
Can I combine CLA with protein or a fat burner?
Yes, BodyWorld CLA can be combined without issue with protein supplements, fat burners, creatine or vitamins, as it contains no stimulants or ingredients that could interact with common fitness supplements. CLA is often included in the diet alongside protein as supplementary support for body composition. There are no known contraindications between CLA and fat burners containing caffeine or other stimulants. However, if you take several products at the same time, we recommend discussing your total daily intake of all supplements with a nutritionist.
How long will it take to see results from taking CLA?
The specific timeframe for results depends on individual factors such as diet, training routine and metabolism; the product documentation does not specify an exact time for effects to appear. The stated health effect, namely the maintenance of normal cholesterol levels, is linked to a daily intake of 10 g of linoleic acid, which is considerably more than the 1600 mg of CLA in the recommended daily dose of 2 capsules. For noticeable results, long-term, regular use combined with a healthy diet and physical activity is therefore needed, usually over several weeks to months.
How many servings are in a pack and how long will it last?
A pack of BodyWorld CLA contains 90 capsules, which provides 45 servings at the recommended dose of 2 capsules per day. With regular daily use, the pack will therefore last exactly 45 days, or approximately one and a half months. This is a standard pack size for CLA supplements, allowing you to try the product over a sufficiently long period to assess its effects as part of your diet and training plan.
What is the difference between CLA and fish oil (omega-3)?
CLA is an omega-6 fatty acid derived from the oil of the safflower plant, whereas fish oil contains primarily the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. The two types of fat have different functions in the body – omega-3 is associated particularly with supporting the heart and brain, while the CLA in BodyWorld CLA is associated with maintaining normal cholesterol levels at a high daily intake of linoleic acid. These supplements are not interchangeable; they contain different fatty acids that can be combined in the diet according to individual goals.
Is BodyWorld CLA suitable for weight loss?
BodyWorld CLA is not presented as a direct weight-loss aid; its officially approved health effect relates to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels with a daily intake of 10 g of linoleic acid. CLA is commonly used in the fitness community as a supplement during diets aimed at reducing body fat percentage and improving body composition, but this effect is not officially stated in the product documentation. For actual weight loss, a calorie deficit, diet and physical activity remain the decisive factors; CLA can only be a supplementary part of such a plan.
Directions of use
Take 2 capsules daily, ideally with food.
