About Tonalin® CLA:

TONALIN®  is the original brand of CLA and is an exclusively licensed product of the Cognis Group.  CLA is a polyunsaturated, conjugated fatty acid that is a natural part of the human diet found primarily in meat and dairy products.  Cognis produces TONALIN® CLA through a new proprietary process that converts linoleic acid from safflowers into CLA, providing the highest quality of CLA available.  TONALIN® CLA contains the lowest amount of non-naturally occurring isomers, a patent-protected attribute that provides food manufacturers with the highest levels of ingredients known to be beneficial.  CLA is available in several product forms – oil and water-dispersible powder – that offer food manufacturers a broad range of options for their new products.
