Think again........
You might want to think about that idea again as there is a reason the powder isn't sold outright!

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) have been shown to be a strong anticarcinogen in a number of animal models. Our previous study demonstrated that CLA as a whole was extremely unstable in air. The present study was undertaken further to examine the oxidative stability of individual CLA
isomers using the combination of gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and silver ion high-performance liquid chromatography (Ag-HPLC). It was found that CLA as a whole oxidized rapidly and more than 80% was degraded within 110 h in air at 50 degrees C. Four c,c-CLA isomers were most unstable followed by four c,t-CLA isomers. In contrast, four t,t-CLA isomers were relatively stable under the same experimental conditions. Both the oxygen consumption and the GLC analysis revealed that 200 ppm jasmine green tea catechins (GTCs) exhibited protection to CLA and were even stronger than 200 ppm butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) when added to either CLA or canola oil containing 10% CLA. The present study emphasized that oxidative unstability of CLA should not be overlooked although CLA has many biological effects.
