Conjugated Linoleic Acid Powder is a white to almost white free powder produced by HSF bio-encapsulation technology. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a general term for octadecadienoic acids with conjugated double bonds derived from linoleic acid. Many foreign studies have shown that among the various isomers of conjugated linoleic acid, 9c, 11t-CLA, and 12t, 12c-CLA has many important biological activities.
CLA is a functional fatty acid with critical physiological functions discovered in the late 1980s. Substances that inhibit mutagenesis have been found in raw and grilled beef, and it turns out that these substances are CLA.
Scholars have shown through animal experiments that CLA has the function of inhibiting cancer activity. Over the years, numerous experiments have proven that CLA has the following capabilities:
1. Change material metabolism and enhance immune regulation.
2. Prevent atherosclerosis, inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins PGE2, and promote the production of lymphocytes and interleukin-2 (Interleukin-2 IL2).
4. Activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor PPAR .
5. Induce the accumulation of PPAR-responsive mRNAs in tumor cell lines, and inhibit skin cancer, gastric cancer, intestinal cancer, etc.
CLA is mainly derived from dairy and meat products of ruminants. CLA is present in all foods, but varies widely in content and biological activity. Animal products, especially ruminant products, are rich in CLA. The main source of CLA in milk fat is the intermediate product of unsaturated fatty acids formed during rumen hydrogenation. Feeding rapeseed, long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, etc. with different fatty acid content characteristics to ruminants can increase the CLA content in ruminant tissues, thereby producing functional animal products that promote human health. The above effects can also be achieved by regulating the activity of stearoyl-CoA desaturase in vivo. Many studies have shown that by adjusting the diet, such as adding oilseeds to the diet or grazing in high-quality pastures, CLA in the milk meat of ruminants can be effectively increased. The content of medium long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids can be improved.
