Contain conjugated linoleic acid

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a kind of fat found mostly in meat and dairy products from ruminant animals such as cows, sheep, and goats. Grass-fed dairy products, notably grass-fed butter, are thought to be particularly rich in CLA. In one trial, grass-fed cows produced milk with 500% more CLA than corn-fed cows. According to research, CLA may provide a number of health advantages. CLA may help prevent some chronic illnesses, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and possibly certain malignancies, according to animal and test-tube research.

CLA, for example, caused cancer cell death and reduced the proliferation of breast and colon cancer cells in test-tube tests. Human-research findings, on the other hand, are mixed. Some studies show that those who consume more CLA in their diets may have a lower risk of breast cancer, whereas others have found no link. CLA supplements appear to have the ability to lessen the risk of heart disease in mice and rabbits by delaying and decreasing plaque accumulation in the arteries. Nonetheless, the few human studies that have looked at CLA's effect on plaque development have found little benefit.
