Really interesting Jon, thank you. I’m off to do some research as I wont be eating meat this lifetime!
Hi Pixie,
Glad that this information gives you the knowledge to continue to follow your beliefs and to do what you feel so strongly about. There are so many choices out there.

Have you found a supplement product that is not the Trans form?
Hi: I just spoke with Jon on the Ask Jon call. I researched before the call and couldn’t find any CLA that just said CIA only.
Jon told me the below is okay. In the past, they only said Trans.
There are a lot of brands that say the ingredients of CIA and Trans. Many don’t say such as Tonalin which is a Trademark product.
However many say this:
Conjugated Linoleic Acid 80% Oil 1000 mg *
Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) 800 mg *
Cis-9, Trans-11 Isomer 400 mg *
Trans-10, Cis-12 Isomer 400 mg
Jon says this is okay.
One brand I found is Vitacost: vitacost.com
Vitacost CLA-1000 Complex — 1000 mg – 120 Softgels
1 softgel/cday = 120 days – Price: $11.29
Amount Per Serving % Daily Value

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) 800 mg *
Cis-9, Trans-11 Isomer 400 mg *
Trans-10, Cis-12 Isomer 400 mg *
Another I found is:
Life Extension Super CLA Blend with Guarana and Sesame – 120 gel caps =3 caps per day= 40 day serving. = $31.50 price
Lignans Description
