This mini-review summarizes some experimental and clinical data about effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) supplementation during pregnancy. Some studies prove its positive effects on immunologic variables in lactating sows and piglets and reduction the incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH). However, there is a number of negative effects of CLA, namely reduced growth rates and an increase in mortality of suckling pups.
