Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA
Pros
Cons
Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA focuses on the body-building potential of CLA supplements, clearly marketing itself to this segment with its minimalist claims of anti-catabolic support and a reference to “research that suggests” CLA helps interfere with the physiological processes that break down lean muscle mass (ostensibly maintaining that lean muscle mass). The website does not point you to or cite specific studies. For those looking to develop muscle mass and size then this supplement is speaking to you. Should you listen?
What’s in Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA?
This weight loss and muscle building supplement contains pure CLA only. Each capsule has been engineered to offer the optimum (and standard for such supplements) amount of CLA for weight loss and muscle building of 800 mg of Conjugated Linoleic Acid. This compound is also said to provide benefits when in terms of lowering blood pressure. It helps develop stronger muscles while assisting the body’s metabolism to burn fat faster for energy consumption.
CLA is related to omega-3 fatty acids which is an essential fatty acid that can improve metabolism, lower bad cholesterol and strengthen the body’s immune system. This in turn has led many to use CLA as a weight loss supplement.
How Do You Use Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA?
There is no information on the product website regarding a recommended dosage or when to take the capsule during the day. This is basic information on most nutritional supplement websites and its absence here is problematic.
The Cost
One bottle of Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA contains 90 capsules and, at the time of our review, was priced at $16.40 on Amazon. Without the dosage information we can’t say for sure how long you should expect 90 capsules to last.
We should also note here that this product was not available for sale directly from the product website, nor did the “Buy Now” button provide a list of retailers or websites in the USA where you can purchase this product.
Is There a Guarantee?
We could not find any customer guarantee or a return/refund policy for this product. This is a disadvantage, especially in attracting new customers who would like to test its effectiveness risk-free. However, you can always check with the company’s customer service to find out if there is some sort of return policy.
The Conclusion of Our Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA Review
Muscletech Platinum Pure CLA seems to have good reputation online with a high percentage of positive customer ratings on Amazon (although from a small number, 24 reviews, at the time of writing). It incorporates 800mg of pure CLA which is standard in the CLA category and should help avoid any unwanted side effects. However, the product website does not inspire confidence. It lacks basic dosage information and does not provide a return/refund policy. It also does not seem particularly interested in creating strong sales in the USA with the absence of US-based stores where the product can be purchased. And although the product website notes “research” that supports its product’s claims, it does not provide any information on that research. Overall, this is not a product we can recommend.
