in the animal fat from from ruminants is something called conjugated conjugated linoleic acid and that is not the same as linoleic acid

The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

conjugated linoleic acids are a family of 28 isomers of linoleic acid mostly found and meat and dairy products derived from ruminants they're two double bonds are conjugated which means they're separated by a single bond
conjugated linoleic acid which is a fatty acid found in dairy almost exclusively in dairy and also in ruminant animal fat but i get this question a lot because i warn you all about linoleic acid and people say well this tallow or this meat that i'm eating says it has conjugated linoleic acid is this a problem and i don't think it is because there's a very small amount of conjugated linoleic acid it's actually an isomer of linoleic acid
if you go to conjugated linoleic acid there are many isomers but they have a it has a trans bond usually usually trans 10 cis 12 conjugated minimalic acid meaning that the 10th or the 9th position in the molecule or the 10th or the 11th position in the molecule excuse me there is a trans positioning of the hydrogens around a double bond
