    There's no solid conclusive evidence to suggest it's effectiveness.
     
    IMO most supplements are a waste of money, there are a few that're useful under certain circumstances.
     
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17903328
     
    Abstract


    RESULTS:
    Experiments in humans have not been able to show a significant effect on body weight, body composition or weight regain related to either of the CLA isomers. In fact, some studies suggest a tendency towards a decrease in body fat mass and an increase in body lean mass, while some others raise concern about the possibility of deleterious effects of trans-10,cis-12 CLA on lipid profile, glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.

     
    But there are other studies that show the possibility of reduction in BF over the long term in supplementation of CLA.
     
    It's not really a game changer.
    Energy deficit = weight loss.
