Effects of CLA Supplements on Body Weight and Fat Oxidation
Completed
University of Wisconsin, Madison
Phase 2
2004-07-01
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is form of fat found in dairy foods, beef and other natural
sources. When given to small animals, decreases of body fat have been noted.. Although weight
loss is the best treatment for overweight and obesity, it is difficult to maintain the loss
in the long term. Because of this, treatment emphasis has turned to small weight losses
obtained through non-restrictive diets and prevention of weight regain. This is a study to
determine if 6 months of consumption a purified form of CLA will result in greater loss of
body fat than control and to determine whether CLA consumption increases total fat oxidation,
which would help explain why the weight loss occurs.

This study aims to analyse the effect of two total parenteral nutrition diets with lipid
emulsions of different compositions on the incidence of nosocomial infection in critical
patients. One diet will contain an MCT/LCT emulsion concentrated to 20% (50:50 ratio) and the
other will comprise an MCT/LCT/fish oil emulsion (50:40:10 ratio). The secondary objective of
this study is to analyse mortality in hospital and up to 6 months of discharge.
