Personally, the most intriguing thing about this is the person who said it improved their dry skin... I always get terribly dry skin in the winter (I snowboard and such which makes it worse) and I would LOVE to finally find something that helps.

I want to try tonalin... anyone know of a good brand available in Canada?? I'd like to start it ASAP and will definitely update on my progress as I go!

Some people love it..... I feel like it made my skin greasy and made me bloated

I know this is an old thread, but I revived it because this stuff made my skin completely break out. Not acceptable! And I also got the sense that it was bloating me, so I'm happy to see J.D.'s comment here. I'll continue taking it once a week as a supplement, but even taking just one has a negative effect on my skin. I can see the effects the next day! A zit or two will pop up and my face starts looking irritated overall.

Even for the couple of weeks that I took the full dosage, I didn't see a difference in my body (I work out regularly and don't have much extra fat, but I didn't lose any weight and didn't appear to have gained any muscle).

Yes I got really bad cystic acne with it that left so many black spots and so i stopped. I noticed some weight loss with it but I was also actually working out and eating right probably was jsut that...i got a lot of compliments on my ass though when I took it:)

I just started about a week ago after finding out about Tonalin here on SW.

Thus far, I had urgent stomach issues for the first 3 days with no noticeable changes otherwise.

A week in, my tummy is a bit flatter and it seems like I'm retaining less water. Who knows....could be all psychosomatic!

Bump.

I was going to start a thread about this to get current info', but thought I probably should bump the existing one (sorry mods if that wasn't the right protocol :-\).

I've recently started CLA (about two weeks ago) and haven't noticed any results good or bad yet. Is anyone taking CLA, if so how long does it take to see results and what has been your experience with it?

I've read some studies about CLA, and they're mixed as far as fat loss goes. You want to be taking in the neighborhood of at least 3-5g per day, any less hasn't shown results in studies. It's also found in red meat and dairy, so if you're eating these foods, you can take towards the lower end of the spectrum.

However, while it seems some people are non-responders to the fat loss, CLA HAS proven to be helpful against cancer, so it's something you might consider taking just from a general health standpoint.

^Thanks for the link, but I know what it is etc (I wouldn't put it into my body without doing my research ;))-I was just looking into the ladie's recent experiences with it as this is an older thread.

I have good results on this, and I hope it keeps working to prevent cellulite from ever forming. Thanks to this forum for teaching me about it!

One thing I wanted to mention is that taking CLA Tonalin with food disrupts the absorption of other nutrients of the meal. Specifically, I've noticed a problem with Iron. If I take CLA with my iron meal of the day, I suffer from iron deficiency the next day. (Noticable by cracks at the side of the mouth, tiredness, taking deep breaths, and etc.) I guess this is normal with supplements-- you just have to take them separately.

There's a new CLA Tonalin supplement called "Barleans" Amplified Absorption 1,500 mg swirl (Apple Flavor) (I forgot where I got it from) and it tastes amazing and doesn't make my skin greasy and pimply. Highly recommended!

I've been taking CLA since 2008. I don't even remember where I first found out about it, but once I found out it supposedly helped shape the waist area Ive been hooked for years.
I have an hourglass shape body naturally, but I do think CLA helps in making my waist even smaller.
BUT...I have a plethora of digestive issues and bloating as well. It's always frustrated me and I never understood why because I feel like I "follow all the rules" when it comes to diet and exercise .
I literally just ran out of CLA and I'm going to try a week without it and see if it helps my stomach issues.

Ive started taking CLA again because im desperate to get in perfect shape by this summer and im scared of diet pills. Im using Sports Research brand, because Ive used their other products and had great results. So far great and no break outs, infact my skin has been glowing! Im working out daily and eating healthy (sometimes lol) and my ass looks AMAZING, just working on toning and shrinking my waist. Only thing I think CLA stops me up not sure, so I take a pill of Dr schulze intestinal forumula #1 to keep me regular and from getting too bloated.

Hi guys!

I love CLA. I've been taking it with Fenugreek and my body has changed so much. Everything is tighter and perkier, and there's zero cellulite and my skin is the softest it's ever been. I don't take the Milk Thistle because I don't want it to mess with my BC but I do notice a little bloating in my face. I drink almost a gallon of water a day and have been so pleased with the results. I'm 100% all for it!
