I had hip surgery about two years ago and I started taking bulk cissus a few days after I was released from the hospital. Without question, it speed up my recovery! Based on my talks with the doctor and from talking to others who had this type of surgery, I was probably 3 weeks ahead of schedule. It's a great supplement! I recently started taking it again, about a month ago (I have a lot of it!), and I'm down a couple of pounds, strength is up and I've lost an inch off my waist. Good luck in your recovery!

I know this is an old thread but you guys should seriously stay away from making medical claims for this product (heals joints and tendons). This is directly in violation of the DSHEA. I use Cissus myself and it does help my joints but whether it is rebuilding them or just providing pain relief is unknown.

I think the wording is not correct and should be more along the lines of 'promoting the process of healing'. I think this has been questioned before and was asked by a Mod to chnage a while ago but may have been overlooked.
I would say that Cissus does a little more than give pain relief and can also aid in the healing processes of bones and some have said in soft tissues such as tendons/ligaments too.
By delivering nutrients to soft tissue, cissus helps to increase tendon and ligament strength, and aids in healing fractures and generating new bone growth. It can also be used as a balm for people with arthritis and osteoarthritis.
Hope you are well Clay.

I don't say "heal". Thanks for your concern

What injury do you have to the shoulder, how did you do it and how long have you had it?

I just ordered two bottles of this. I have a naggin left shoulder that gets very aggrevated during workouts and most of the day. My friend's wife is a physical therapist and she said I have some sort of "itis" whether its bursitis or some other inflamation of the joint.
I was suggested this stuff by my martial arts instructor. He is a no BS guy has black belts in seven different studies. He has been doing it for thirty years and according to him has destroyed his joints. He says this stuff makes him feel like a young man. He said he depends on it now. Pretty convincing for me. I will report on my own results after a month of taking it.
thanks

Think I should give this a try. A lot of my joints are starting to click and a while back I was feeling discomfort and a it of pain in my shoulders (possibly minor RC tear). If I take this will it help make the clicking go away and maybe strengthen my joints/ligaments? Also is it alright for a 17 year old to use this stuff?

Just started it today. No side effects so far. I definitely noticed an analgesic effect from 2 caps of the Super Cissus RX about an hour or two after taking it.........is cissus supposed to have an analgesic effect that takes place this quickly? I think it's bad ass.....I felt good enough to workout for the first time in 3 weeks......and had a great workout too!
I've heard some people discussing cissus having anabolic properties? Anybody care to discuss anabolic type effects they've gotten from cissus?
