Losing weight is not always an easy task. Did you know that nearly one half of adults in the United States tried to lose weight in the last 12 months? Yes, half of Americans tried and failed to lose weight. Our diet plays a big role into this, as does our low activity rate. But what are some things that you can do, besides jumping onto some fad diet? Let’s talk about the reality of weight loss and what you can be doing about this.†
I want to talk about the findings that came from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. They recognized that 50% of US adults tried to lose weight over the course of the last year. 56% of those adults were women.†
We know that those who tried to lose weight reported that their most common method of doing so was trying to exercise and eat less, but it’s the adherence part that is the catch. We have to look really hard at diet and be honest with ourselves. I’ve spoken to many people who claim they have a very healthy and clean diet. In a roundabout way, it may sound healthy, but when we break it down, we can see that they may not actually be making the healthiest choices when it comes to calories, fiber content and more.†
When it comes to supplements, our Trim HxⓇ formulation can be very beneficial for weight loss. Trim HxⓇ is unique in the sense that it is targeting two different areas in which many people struggle to achieve their weight loss goals. One is to try to promote and speed up the metabolic rate to help promote fat burning. The other is to stop the cravings, so we have to target the brain component that drives cravings for bad, junky, sugary foods.†
This is where our Trim HxⓇ comes into play. This formula includes a registered, trademarked form of an herbal extract known as Grains of Paradise and it’s called CaloriburnⓇ GP. This ingredient has been shown in clinical trials to be effective. It is partnered up with 5-HTP, which is 5-hydroxytryptophan. This is the intermediate step between the conversion of the amino acid tryptophan and the manufacturing of serotonin. This helps to regulate the desire to want to go and snack.†

With the rate at which diabetes, obesity and other metabolic disorders are on the rise in this country, it’s no wonder that people are seeking out different ways to improve upon lean muscle mass and to help enhance their body fat ratio. These are all things that are certainly important when we talk about the way that fat is distributed throughout the body and how much of an impact too much excess weight can have, especially through the abdomen.
It has been known for a very long time, in both men and women, that when you carry too much excess belly fat, it generates a significant risk when it comes to cardiovascular disease. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was something that came from nature that would be supportive to that belly fat while also providing antioxidant benefits throughout the body that can help at that cellular level. Today, I’m going to talk about CLA, which is Conjugated Linoleic Acid. The way that CLA has been researched is really quite interesting because it’s been shown to be quite effective across the spectrum for targeting many different problems that can arise through the aging process and in the setting of chronic diseases, while also placing a lot of focus on healthy weight, especially on belly fat.†

What is CLA?
What we know about Conjugated Linoleic Acid is that it’s basically a collective term used to designate different structures of Linoleic Acid. One thing we know about Linoleic Acid by itself is it can actually be pro-inflammatory, so actually driving up inflammation in the body. When it’s in its conjugated form, it actually does a significant amount of benefit when it comes to lowering inflammation.
The benefits of CLA
One of the big drivers for CLA in terms of public knowledge of it is because of the obesity pandemic that we are dealing with, not only here in America but throughout the world. There was a lot of early research where they wondered if a lack of CLA could actually be a driving force for greater fat deposits throughout the body and less of that leaner muscle mass.
A lot of the original studies that came out with that were looking specifically at the levels of CLA. There was an interesting study that they did in Norway many years ago looking at CLA supplementation and the subjects in that study actually lost up to 20% of their body fat in three months without even changing their diet.

CLA plays a really important role in thermogenesis, or natural fat burning, which is why it’s been pushed to the forefront of being beneficial for those who are trying to shave off some of that excess belly fat. Now is this something that happens over night? No, certainly not. The other thing that I like people to recognize about CLA is that it actually yields a very powerful antioxidant property to it, which is why it’s been looked at in the setting of cardiovascular disease and looking at its benefit for targeting oxidation that can be very detrimental to the heart, as well as the blood vessels. There’s a lot of research out there looking at how dietary Conjugated Linoleic Acid can reduce plasma lipoprotein levels, which refers to bad cholesterol levels. They found this when they were looking at disease states such as atherosclerosis and high cholesterol.
