About BIO-CLA + Green Tea (150 caps) - Discontinued

BIO-CLA + Green Tea (150 caps) - Discontinued

Clinical studies suggest that Bio-CLA + Green Tea can be used in the following ways:

  • to increase the release of fat from the body's fat deposits
  • to inhibit fat accumulation in the body's fat deposits
  • to be used in conjunction with slimming treatments
  • to achieve better results with physical training

 

Lose Weight & Stay Slim!

CLA + Green Tea Helps You To A Leaner and Firmer Body!

Losing weight is not the problem – making it a permanent change is! That is why we have developed CLA + T, a special preparation with the active ingredients CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) and GTE (Green Tea Extract).

 

Reduces fat and makes you firmer

  • CLA reduces fat, converting it into lean muscle mass
  • GTE speeds up the fat conversion, making fat loss even more efficient.

 

Blocks fat uptake

CLA + Green Tea is not a slimming pill. It is a supplement that makes it a whole lot easier for you to get rid of the fat that conceals your slim figure. CLA inhibits your body’s accumulation of fat by sending the fat to your muscle cells. Here, fat is converted into energy – with your help: regular exercise. The combination of CLA +Green Tea and exercise is what makes great results.

 

Leaner and firmer

What is more, CLA stimulates lean muscle mass, making you leaner and firmer. With more muscle cells and less body fat it is much easier to maintain your weight loss. That way you avoid the horrible “yo-yo” that makes your weight bounce up and down.

 

So, What Is CLA?

cla CLA stands for conjugated linoleic acid and is a naturally occurring fatty acid that is found in meat and dairy products (milk, cheese etc). It works by blocking the uptake of fat in fat cells. The fat that is blocked gets forwarded to the muscle cells and converted into energy. The more a person exercises, the more fat that person’s muscle tissue will metabolise into energy. Therefore regular physical activity is important if you want CLA to work optimally.

  • CLA blocks the uptake of fat in fat cells
  • CLA sends the fat to the muscle cells
  • CLA stimulates lean muscle mass

 

Documented Results with CLA...

A scientific study of 40 overweight men and women (aged 18-44 years) shows that CLA reduces body fat. Researchers divided the people in two groups, giving one group CLA and the other group (control group) identical capsules with an inactive substance.

What is Green Tea & How Can It Help?

green tea leafGreen tea supplies a lot of healthful substances, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, that can help improve one’s overall health.

Green tea contains a small amount of caffeine, so it serves as a mild appetite suppressant; it is also high in polyphenols which reputedly inhibit absorption of fat from the intestinal tract and activate fat-burning and increased energy expenditure.   

A placebo-controlled study showed that green tea extract increased the energy expenditure by 4% and promoted the fat oxidation in humans beyond that explained by the caffeine content. It was concluded that oral adminstration of green tea extract has the potential to influence body weight and body composition.

Test tube studies suggest that green tea extracts high in catechins may inhibit fat digestion and a preliminary human study found a green tea extract increased calorie burning. A preliminary human study found that people taking a green tea extract containing 375 mg per day of total catechins for three months lost an average of 4.6% of their body weight without dieting.

There are many different ways of reducing unfavourable profiles for blood lipids such as cholesterol. Apparently, green tea is a good approach.

Scientists working at the University of Porto, Portugal, tested the effect of green tea on 29 healthy volunteers aged 22-63 and found that it had a significant effect on levels of both LDL and HDL cholesterol, reducing the one and increasing the other.

Four weeks of treatment produced an average 8.9 per cent decrease in LDL cholesterol in 90 per cent of the study participants and increased HDL levels by four per cent in 69 per cent of the subjects. The researchers wrote:

”Our data suggest that green tea drinking has beneficial effects and protects against CVD by improving blood lipid profiles.”

It is the content of polyphenols in green tea that is responsible for the good effects on blood lipid profiles, the team of scientists say, pointing specifically to four different substances: epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), epigallocatechin, epicatehin gallate, and epicatechin.

Green tea contains between 30 and 40 per cent of these water-extractable polyphenols, while black tea (green tea that has been oxidised by a fermentation process) contains 3-10 per cent only.

Natural LIfestyle Magazine Review - July 07

Last year Mrs Donna Holmes found herself feeling tired and lethargic and reluctant to leave the house. Donna’s weight had ballooned from 8 and a half to 11 stone.

“I didn’t have enough energy to play with my children, let alone take myself off to the gym, so I gradually pilled on the pounds.”

As her weight continued to soar, Donna’s depression became worse and eventually she was admitted to hospital. Shocked by her experience, she discharged herself and decided she would lose the weight that was now making her so miserable.

“I didn’t like the person I had become, in fact I no longer recognised her. I was convinced I would feel better if I lost weight and began to exercise. I saw an ad for a CLA + Green Tea product and a picture of a really slim woman with a bikini on and thought ‘that could be me.Within a week of taking them I had started to lose weight and I really did feel better. For the first time in months, I left the car at home and walked my kids to school.”

Donna started taking CLA + Green Tea at the beginning of October and within 3 weeks she had already lost 9lbs. By January, friends and family were beginning to notice the difference.

“It was the first time in years that people remarked positively to me about my body. I’d lost over a stone and was looking and feeling great. I actually felt proud of my body.”

With renewed confidence and energy she decided to exercise publicly and joined a health and fitness class.

By Easter she was swimming and visiting the gym twice a week.

Three months later and in time for her long-deserved summer holiday, Donna had achieved her goal and slimmed down from 11 stone and a size 14 to 8 and a half stone and a size 8.

“This summer I did wear a bikini and it felt great! In fact, I have a whole new wardrobe full with clothes I thought I’d never be able to wear. Taking CLA + Green Tea has literally changed my life. Not only have I lost weight; I have also regained the confidence I thought I had lost forever. I would certainly recommend CLA + Green Tea to anyone!”

I like this product - I've tried various supplements and all have either failed totally or helped a tiny amount. This one seems to work better than most and seems to have some proper research to back it up. I have lost weight and I have gained muscle. BUT I am working out with light weights and doing cardio AND keeping a food log. It ALL works but you need to do it ALL. There is nothing that you can take and it just makes you lose weight - except maybe that Ali weight loss but who wants sh*t themselves all the time!!

I was a little dubious at firs...
Jane

Everyone keeps asking what my secret is. Give it a try.

Ask a Question

Question: Bio-cla green tea. I notice that the date has been changed again. Is 3rd April due in? What is the alternative to this product?
Our Answer:

Hello, I'm afraid that the product is completely discontinued - we would recommend that you buy a BIO-CLA product alongside a Green Tea product in order to achieve the same results. We've popped a suggestion on the main product page.Many thanks

Question: Will these tablets affect me in the future if i am trying for a baby
Our Answer:

Hello, if you are trying to conceive then we would always recommend that you check first with your GP for their advice prior to taking any supplement. Many thanks

Question: I have taken cla and body fat burner pills before. can i take them while breastfeeding or should i wait till i stop to take them.
Our Answer:

Hello, you should always check with your doctor or midwife before taking any supplement whilst pregnant or nursing (unless it is specifically aimed at pregnant or breastfeeding women). Many thanks

Question: can u take these tablets if u have high blood pressure
Our Answer:

Hello, if you are taking any medication for high blood pressure then you should first seek the advice of your doctor. Many thanks

Question: Hi, I just wanted to say that I started taking these tablets (minus the green tea) a few weeks ago and they have been really good. What I wondered was, before taking them I had a really sore knee which ached a lot and was uncomfortable to put pressure on but a few days after taking these supplements it went away. When I stopped for a few days as I had run out it began to come back. Do they have something in them that is good for joints etc...? It is the only thing different I have done but it seems to really help!!
Our Answer:

Hello, the CLA in the tablets could well be helping with your sore knee - CLA has been found in studies to fight inflammation and this may be the cause of the improvements to your sore knee. Many thanks

Thakns
Our Answer:

Question: hi, I have been on diet - Slimming World and my consultant after analysing my food diary said that I don't eat enough so my system slows down and don't burn the fat so quickly, would the tablets help?? Please advice. Thank You. Marta
Our Answer:

Hi, if your consultant says your don't eat enough that means you are not taking enough calories so your body goes into starvation mode. This is also known as hibernation mode and what it basically means is that your body thinks you are being starved so it hordes fat. This means your body will now break down muscle and internal organs even to get the energy it requires INSTEAD of burning fat. This is not good for obvious reasons. You need to control your diet to ensure the correct intake of calories rather than look to supplements in this case to be totally honest. The BIO CLA product will help create lean muscle tissue more so than NOT taking them BUT, and it's a big but - you have to ensure your diet matches your body's requirements, especially if you are truly under-eating. Can I suggest an online food diary such as Fit Day.com or similar to log everything you eat and drink. To lose fat effectively you need to look to a calories deficit of no more than 150/200 calories to be honest. Anymore than that and you risk starvation mode. Good luck!

Question: Is it ok to take BIO-CLA + Green Tea, Acai Berry and Hoodia all together?
Our Answer:

Yes, sounds like a great combination to me! Green Tea and CLA are great for promoting fat burn and lean muscle growth, Acai Berry is a great anti-oxidant and it's weight loss properties have been reported all over the media. The Hoodia, as discovered by the BBC in their report in Africa, has proven it's appetitie suppressing capabilities. Combine all 3 with a sensible balanced diet where the calories do not exceed your daily requirement and away you go!! Thanks

Question: For what length of time can you take the CLA plus green tea extract. I am three days away from taking the 90 capsules and have seen no real difference. I have taken plenty of exercise and I am wondering if I can continue on the CLA Booster for another 90 capsules.
Our Answer:

Definitely - you have to give these things time. I assume you are watching what you eat as well? If you are not on a calorie deficient diet then no pill will help. Personally (and I take these for the past 3 months now and I have lost 2 stones!!!) I have been on a calorie deficient diet of approx 300-500 cals AND I've been eating a high protein diet and I've been keeping the carbs low on non-workout days. But, with the help of BIO-CLA I have seen an increase in lean muscle by over 12%!! I have seen a body fat drop by 8% and it's still going down - so I am leaner and more toned overall. However, BIO-CLA will help you gain lean muscle if you exercise and remember - the more muscle you have the less fat you'll have as your body requires calories to just maintain that muscle. Keep going with it - it does help, but you have to watch your diet at the same time. Good luck!

Question: Hi , i am planning to do strength training i also wanna take bio-Cla and the Muscletech Mass tech for weight is that advisable
Thank you
Our Answer:

Hi, it should be fine as when I look at the list of ingredients for Masstech on their site I cannot see that it contains Green Tea of CLA. The Masstech is a weight gain supplement and people traditionally take BIO-CLA To help them lose weight. However, the CLA is shown to increase lean muscle and the green tea is a great anti-oxidant too so they should work well together. Funnily enough I too have started strength training (stronglifts5x5 programme) and I take Boditronics Profusion post work out. However, as I am trying to lose body fat at the same time I would not take it on non-gym days due to the high carb/calorie content. What programme are you looking at doing? Thanks

Question: Hi, I know you are meant to take bio-cla green tea caps 2 3 times a day. but I dont eat breakfast, so it seems pointless taking 2 when i have nothing inside of me. is it ok to take 2 caps twice a day. Thanks
Our Answer:

Yes, taking 2 caps twice a day is fine in regards to Bio CLA

Question: hi, i contacted dennis the chemists secretary to ask if 10mg amlodipine was okay to take with bio cla with green tea and was told yes. could you verify this at all .
thankyou
Our Answer:

Hi, we're not allowed to comment on medical questions as we are not registered pharmacists - however, if you have had confirmation from a pharmacist then that will be fine. Thanks

Question: Will I put all the weight back on once I have reached my target weight and stop taking the tablets, or do you have to carry on taking them to keep the weight off.
Our Answer:

Hi, BIO CLA helps you achieve your desired weight by reducing appetite somewhat (that's the Green Tea) and the CLA helps the fat to convert to lean muscle mass with exercise. Please remember that CLA + Green Tea is not a slimming pill. It is a supplement that makes it a whole lot easier for you to get rid of the fat that conceals your slim figure. CLA inhibits your body’s accumulation of fat by sending the fat to your muscle cells. Here, fat is converted into energy – with your help: regular exercise. The combination of CLA +Green Tea and exercise is what makes great results.

However, whether you put on the weight once you stop taking them is upto you - if your diet has too many fats and calories and you stop exercising then sure, the weight will go back on. If you carry on watching what you eat and exercise it will stay off.

Question: i am taking medications for high blood pressure and cholesterol , would there be any adverse reactions if i take cla green tea
Our Answer:

Hi, as far as we are aware there is no interactions with medicated drugs. However, as will all supplements, if you are taking them, you should consult with your doctor before adding in anything else, whether herbal or otherwise. Thanks

Question: how long should i take bio-cla green tea if i want to lose two and a half stones of weight?
Our Answer:

Hi, it is impossible to say how long it will take to lose 2.5 stone as it all depends on what you eat and what exercise you partake in along with your current weight, body mass, fat content, calorie intake etc. etc. There are just so many factors. Personally, I lost half a stone in around 3-4 weeks taking this product but I also watched what I ate and stopped eating when I was full! I read Paul McKenna's book called Make You THin or somehting and that really helped me too. Thanks

Question: Hi, I am currently taking tablets for high blood pressure, Atenolol and Bendroflumethiazide and Sertraline for depression. Can you tell me if BIO-CLA is safe for me to take while on these medications? Thankyou
Our Answer:

Hi, since you are taking different prescribed medications we have to say that you should ask your GP first. Ask him whether it's safe to take Green Tea whilst on your meds and if he/she says yes then you're fine. Thanks

Question: IS IT SAFE TO TAKE BIO-CLA GREEN TEA IF YOU ARE ON HRT?
Our Answer:

There are no reported problems taking this product with HRT. However, as with all herbal supplements or vitamins/minerals - if you are taking a prescription drug you should discuss with your GP before taking anything else. Thanks

Question: How safe is it?
Our Answer:

Hi, it is very safe indeed with very few side effects reported. Do not use green tea without first talking to your doctor if you are taking a blood thinner such as warfarin (Coumadin).
Interactions between green tea and other prescription or over-the-counter medicines or herbal/health supplements may also occur. Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or health care professional before taking green tea if you are taking any other medicines or supplements.

Question: The product is called Bio-CLA Green Tea. Does this mean that you have to drink the green tea or do the abstracts come in the tablets?
Our Answer:

Hi, they are in capsules, easily swallowed. The Green Tea is an extract. Thanks

Question: On the box of Bio-CLA T that I bought it says that I must take 1 capsule twice a day. Do I eat normally, or must I cut out carbs. If it is a food supplement does this mean the same as a meal replacement.
Our Answer:

Hi, it's classed as a food supplement as it supplements a meal but doesn't replace it, no. As for cutting out carbs I have to say I am NOT a believer of doing this - I really hate the Atkins diet! So, personally, I would try and aim for a good balance. Try and eat good carbs (fruit, veg, wholemeal bread for example) and avoid the bad carbs (mars bars etc!).

Question: Is it better to take it before food, or after food?
Our Answer:

Hi, the dosage instructions are: Take 2 capsules 3 times per day, with food, or as directed by a physician. Do not exceed recommended amount of course. Thanks
