What is Bronson Vitamins Tonalin CLA?
Bronson 17 Day Diet Tonalin CLA is a nutritional supplement that is said to help you to lose weight and thereafter maintain your new body shape.
As its name implies, its key ingredient is Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), a omega oil extracted from the Safflower plant that research has shown to have powerful weight loss properties. It is said to be particularly good at helping you to lose belly fat and thus shrink your waistline. In addition, because it helps to lower blood sugar levels, it is recommended as an ideal weight loss supplement for diabetics.
Ingredients
- Tonalin Safflower Oil 2000mg
- (which contains 78 – 84% Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) 1560 – 1680mg
Other ingredients:
Gelatin, vegetable glycerin, natural caramel color, purified water.
The type of gelatin used – whether vegetable or bovine – is not indicated. Vegetarians, therefore, should use this product with care.
Dosage
With a serving size of 2 softgel capsules, the recommended dosage for adults is one serving (2 softgels) twice daily.
These directions also contradict the write up about the product on the manufacturer’s website which state that the 90 softgels will last for 22 days: this indicates that the correct dosage should be two capsules to be taken three times daily.
The directions on the container also do not indicate whether or not these should be taken with meals, but it appears from a careful reading on the background information on the Bronson website that this is the case.
What is the Cost?
If you buy the 17 Day Diet Tonalin CLA directly from the Bronson website, the price of a container of 90 softgels (which should last for just 22 days), has been reduced from $25.99 t0 $18.99.
This is quite expensive, compared to similar products currently available – but the potency of this formulation (1560 – 1680mg CLA) is somewhat higher than many other competitive products.
Manufacturer’s Guarantee
According to the Bronson website, the manufacturer backs all its products with a one-year, 100% money back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with your purchase you just have to return the container with any unused capsules, as well as any unopened containers to Bronson within a year of purchase in order to receive a full refund, less any shipping costs.
Our Final Review of Bronson 17 Day Diet Tonalin CLA
Bronson 17 Day Diet Tonalin CLA contains one of the highest potency formulations of CLA we have found among the very many CLA-based products currently available. However, even taking that into consideration, it is quite an expensive product, particularly when one considers that one 90-softgel container will not last more than 22 days if taken as recommended – 2 softgel capsules 3 times daily.
We were unable to source the product from anywhere else but the Bronson Vitamins’ website and so cannot say whether you would be able to purchase it at a more affordable price. However, because – as far as we can ascertain – this particular formulation has been developed as part of nutritional supplement pack to support a diet popularised by a well-known diet doctor, it seems unlikely that it would be available elsewhere. The good news, however, is that Bronson 17 Day Diet Tonalin CLA is available as a standalone product – you do not need to purchase the rest of the diet pack of supplements.
