Supplements for fast recovery of tendons/ligaments/strained muscles?

What are some good recovery supplements? I currently take:

ON whey
Muscle Milk
Creatine monohydrate
glucosamine/chondroitin/msm
flax seed oil
multivitamin

usp cissus rx is great

Food and rest are the best recovery aides for injury. No supplement can mimmick these.

i usually take vit C and gluc/MSM/chron. for a couple of days 3 times daily ..

for my bones drink milk or take calcium...

works pretty well

Cissus + Anti-Flammatories(ie. Ibuprofen) + Proper Stretching + Icing + Rest
Milk

cissus ok now that this stuff has been out for alittle while now what does it acually do... if it just a powerful anti inflam or does it accually help to rebuild or make connective tissue stronger?.............

Second one..
I wonder, does it have any anti-flammatory properties?

yes

if you are looking for ehrbal anti-inflammatories look into bromeline and devils claw.

i herd ciruss makes connective tissue stronger.... if it did i could buy the stuff in a second... but i'm not sure if it does or not

:rolleyes: it mystifies me that people keep posting responses like this... How much more useless could you be?

We have many reports of accelerated recovery from ACL surgery. The recovery pace has mystified many of the doctors. You cannot have ACL recovery without ligament strength increasing. Cissus has eliminated tendonitis is numerous cases without it returning after the use of cissus is ceased.

Cissus is anti-inflammatory, anabolic, and we theorize it increase nutrient delivery to tendons and ligaments.

Patent Pending on our specialized extraction methods.


For the price, its worth the risk!

i'm spectical about any new products on the market..... gives me more infoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... such as info about it strengthing connective tissue and so on............ u strengthen that and u wont need to repair it later on........


get a twisting............

edit:btw i already used search-tech isn't much info out on this yet.... the write up states it increases recovery from fractures and increases bone tensile strength but dosn't really get into any details about connective tissue such as joints tendons and ligaments.......

glucosamine/Methyl Sulfonyl Methane(MSM)/chrondroitin. aspirin can help bring down some of the inflammation. i also use a prescription medicine called Naxopren, which my doctor obviously gave me, and it works really good for hurt tendons and ligamens, like really good. i take all this stuff since ive always had messed up joints and bones, since i am lactose intolerant and dont get much calcium. but i also take calcium pills now too so its getting better.

Great Point, but it's never been studied directly. Cissus was first introduced for its anti-catabolic/anabolic properties in our cAMPHIBOLIC formula. The feedback keep pouring in about improvements of tendon, ligament and joint pain form cAMPHIBOLIC users.

We decided to cap cissus and do a Board study on anabolicminds and a few other smaller boards. The feedback was overwhelming hence Cissus made it to the market by customer demand, and we filed a patent because of the success.

If you study fracture healing, you will understand in some cases Connective tissue and muscle are torn. The muscle and connective tissue must heal along with the fracture. yes its pure theory and real world results.

dam i should of signed up to test it ... and u never pmed me and told me to sign up pfffffffffffffff......... yea u got a point here it might be worth giving a shot

ok this is a question not only for USPLABS but for EVERYONE who has tried this......... when the people reported their bones and connective tissue feeling much better or even healed altogether was it a temp thing while using the ciruss or did it continue after the ciruss use discontinued..and how long after starting did u feel the effects ... i know nothing is instant but just wondering... this is basically to figure out if it was just a strong anti inflam effect taking place (even though that is a good thing with an injury) or the body was able to repair the damage area for good........

In some cases, Cissus begins working in the first 3-day and some cases it will take about 21 days. Funny, The user feeling Cissus on the first 3 days it can be accredited to the analgesic effect. In the cases of 21 days, the analgesic effect is not apparent or weak but pain slowly starts to dissipate from one day to another.

For the other question, you may want to start a specific thread.

Now this is really off the wall, but is there any evidence that cissus might help heal a level 2 (almost complete tear) ACL sprain? ;) I have such a sprain and although it's not "as bad" anymore, it has stopped getting better and remains a nuisance.

Not really off the wall since its Ligament related, I would highly consider the purchase but I cannot guarantee.

;) I have some on the way already specifically for my tendonitis, but I figured why not throw that out there.

Keep us updated krustster please.

take care

Hmmm cissus sounds pretty interesting i might give it a try. I have a surgically repaired shoulder but it's pretty much fully healed but never hurts to get stronger.

how exactly do u pronounce cissus??

[QUOTE=NumberTwentyTwo]how exactly do u pronounce cissus??[/QUOTE]


i would imagine SISSUS.

[QUOTE=nni]i would imagine SISSUS.[/QUOTE]
That's the way I pronounce it, sis-us.
Now that I think about it I've never heard anybody else say it but me.
