Want to reduce your risk of colon cancer while also significantly reducing your body fat? Aside from exercise, another option to consider is CLA. Researchers found that by consuming this fatty acid and frequenting the gym at least 4 ½ hours per week body fat –not weight– was significantly reduced. A Swedish study also discovered that CLA has a direct impact on the reduction of some forms of colon cancers. CLA is most readily found in grass-fed poultry and meats, as well as dairy and eggs.
