Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA): A Complete Guide
Conjugated linoleic acid, usually shortened to CLA, is sold in soft gel capsules. This guide explains what CLA is, where it occurs naturally, and how to read the label and choose a capsule pack. It is a quick, practical overview for anyone comparing options.
What is conjugated linoleic acid?
CLA is a naturally occurring fatty acid. It is found in trace amounts in dairy and meat products, and levels are generally higher in products from grass-fed animals than grain-fed ones. In supplements, it is usually packed into soft gel capsules.

How to read a CLA label
- Strength per capsule: compare 1000 mg and 1500 mg options on the label.
- Capsules per pack: a larger pack usually gives a lower cost per capsule.
- Suitability: look for the vegetarian or vegan wording if it matters to you.
- Serving directions: always follow the recommended serving on the pack and do not exceed it.
Soft gels: practical tips
- Swallow with water, usually with a meal, unless the label says otherwise.
- Keep the lid tightly closed.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
Choosing the right pack
Work out the price per capsule or per serving rather than the pack price. If you are unsure, start with the 180-capsule pack of 1000 mg and see whether it suits you.
