Conclusion of this study

At biweekly visits, subjects completed a questionnaire evaluating side effects and adverse events. Blood was taken for assay of liver function, glucose, insulin, serum lipids, blood counts, and general chemistry. Overall, body composition did not differ between groups. Laboratory tests showed no adverse effects of CLA. Adverse events and side effects were less in the CLA group compared to placebo. We conclude that CLA as Clarinol is safe for use in obese humans for at least one year.
