Grass-fed
Dairy
(CLA)
Want to know where Mighty Mouse got all his ost?
Cheese! Cheese and other dairy products,
such as fermented dairy, milk and butter contain CLA
(Conjugated Linoleic Acid), a fatty acid that burns fat. But,
it can’t be just any cheese or dairy product. In order for
dairy to have high amounts of CLA, the cow must be fed
grass and not grains.
Grass-fed is the highest standard and typically contains
the largest amount of CLA. According to a study at
California State University, grass-fed beef and dairy
contain three times more CLA than grain-fed beef and
dairy.
