This month, just in time for hitting the beach in the good weather, we’re featuring CLA Slim 1000mg. From the product details page:
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is a powerful fatty acid. Research has shown that CLA combined with moderate exercise and a healthy diet, may help to reduce body fat and retain lean muscle tissue. It appears to reduce the amount of fat your body stores after eating, by interfering with the enzyme that moves fat from the blood stream into fat cells. This happens at the same time as increasing the rate of fat burning, by enhancing the body’s ability to break down fat as well as reducing the body’s total number of fat cells.

***NEWSFLASH***
Careful eating and regular exercise can stave off diabetes! Well, we all knew that didn’t we? But, did you know it could be by as much as 58%?
In a recent large study (3,000 people), the US-based Diabetes Prevention Program Research Group have shown that a diet aimed at achieving a 7% weight loss, combined with half-an-hour of exercise five days a week, reduced the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes by 58%.
According to the Lancet the dieters reaped the most benefit from the study, even compared to the group on the diabetes drug ‘Metaformin’, which has been used to treat diabetics since the 1950′s.
‘There seems to be no short cut, and a persistent and prolonged intensive lifestyle intervention seems to be the most effective answer’ said Dr Misra of the Lancet.
Type 2 diabetes usually appears in people over the age of 40; however increasing numbers of children – some as young s seven – are now being diagnosed.
So, this exercise lark, I can’t do that five days a week! Well you’ll be happy to know it doesn’t have to be full-on treadmill stuff, just enough to make you slightly breathless, and increase your heart rate. Go for a walk, play with the kids (that’ll help them too!), take the stairs, just do something. It all helps!
There are also supplements that can help control blood sugar levels, chromium being the best and most widely available.
Don’t sit there worrying about diabetes, get up and move so you don’t have to!
