Primaforce Cissus, 120 Count Bottle (1000mg)

The product arrived quickly and I got what I ordered, so it is hard to complain about that.I have only just begun taking Cissus Quadrangularis at a dosage of about 7 grams per day. So, even a 120 count bottle of 1000 mg pills will not last very long. However, a cycle of CQ is not supposed to last that long. The reason I'm taking it is to try to synergize with the rest of my fat-loss / body recomposition stack. It is too soon to say for sure whether or not it is working and there are so many other variables that might influence the measurable effects of any of it. However, I have noticed that I feel more spry and that for joint aches and pains, this is much better than other things I have taken in the past. I do not know if I'm losing weight, but I am feeling more limber. So, that makes it easier to exercise with greater frequency and resilience.If I can squeeze into my suit pants for an upcoming meeting just in time, then I would be glad to give this an extra half a star. My problem with it is that I want to be able to take an extra 400 mg as that is what is recommended by 4-hour body (7.4 grams daily), but reaching the appropriate dose is tricky and these aren't the sort of pills one wants to cut. Instead I take less than recommended. It is worth noting that this far exceeds the recommendations on the bottle. However, it would be nice to be able to buy this product in 1234 mg pills, so that 6 could be taken daily to arrive at 7.4 grams (two of them 30 minutes before a meal).

This product was recommended by a friend, whose doctor/son recently completed research on Cissis and Joint health. The research recommended it's use for Osteoarthritis pain and as a natural joint lubricant. And, it is actually touted to promote cartilage growth. I've been taking the recommended dosage for less than a month so it's a bit premature to give a proper rating. To date though I'm sorry to say I haven't noticed a reduction in pain. I have yet to read the research data, nor do I know how long to take Cissis before expecting results. Glucosamine for instance, should be taken for several months before it begins to take effect. Since the product is regarded to be a safe supplement, I plan to stay with it while doing a bit more research. I am unable to tolerate prescription or OTC medications for Arthritis so I am hoping for some pain relief while slowing down further joint damage. Hey, it's important to be hopeful! While the jury is still out, in my case, I will keep you posted. Normally I'd find out more before taking something new, but truthfully I'm suffering with widespread joint degeneration. In other words I'm desperate.

Long story short: I was skateboarding, dislocated my ankle outward 90 degrees off-center while breaking my fibula 15 cm up and breaking off the bottom of my tibia (medial malleolus). I had a bilateral open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) to remedy the ankle joint and break; it consisted of three screws and two wires. I was casted and was unable to weight-bear for 2 months. Thereafter I had two separate surgeries to remove all the hardware from my leg one side at a time; it was definitely not a comfortable addition to my stock anatomy. The post-surgical swelling, inflammation and pain was noticeably reduced when I discovered this product after doing research on its bone recovery and analgesic properties. I stopped taking my painkillers including hydrocodone/vicodin and needed something to address the persistent discomfort experienced while recovering especially considering the swelling was extremely noticeable when pressed against the walls of a cast, especially while not elevated.I was taking 2 capsules (1000 mg) every 4 hours for the duration of my recovery and then 30 minutes before physical therapy and essentially whenever discomfort was creeping back. You can definitely feel it wear off at the end of fourth hour which is a good indicator of its efficacy for me. I used to know it was time for more whenever my leg started throbbing in my cast from the return of the swelling. It made life exceedingly tolerable during recovery and was beyond helpful when recovering and training to get back to fitness. I also used the powdered version mixed with water in the same dosage at the outset of my recovery. This solution definitely acts quicker than the pill form, however the taste may be a little off-putting to some with a less adventurous palate. The pill takes only 30 minutes or so start taking affect and is far more convenient for traveling and accessibility purposes; I have exclusively switched to the pill version.I continue to use this product as my go-to pain and inflammation relief solution when athletic injury occurs. I am particularly pleased that it circumvents the negative gastrointestinal and anti-leukocyte side-effects associated with ibuprofen, especially in prescription dosage.To close, I highly recommend this product from the experiences of myself and others who have incurred and recovered from traumatic orthopedic injuries. (I have seen Vitamin Shoppe carry it locally if looking to start immediately, but Amazon offers the more cost-effective option for buying in advance or replenishing a dwindling supply.)If recovering from a traumatic bone injury I also recommend adding a healthy dose of liquid calcium citrate-mag-d3 by Lifetime (Strawberry tastes great) and vitamin C to help stimulate recovery of the periosteum and the bone itself. Lots of anti-oxidant rich fruits and veggies coupled with abstaining from caffeine that will prevent calcium absorption and inflammatory food should speed your recovery significantly. Fight for your body's recovery by providing it with all the necessary ingredients to rebuild and a optimal environment to do it in and you will likely achieve for functionality of your affected anatomy.FYI: Vegetarians - this comes in both vegetarian-friendly and standard gelatin capsules so just check if this is relevant to you or just take the powdered version to avoid the capsules.

This product is extremely effective for joint pain. It does not work quickly, at least for me, like ibprophan, so if that's what you need this is probably not a good choice. For me it takes 1-2 weeks to notice the difference, but that difference is very pronounced. I have used it for 2-3month periods several times over the years with same great results. From my experience, I would caution folks that it does not necessarily heal the injury just b/c the pain is gone though. The first time I used it it worked so well that I resumed strenous activity, then when I stopped taking it a month later my shoulder felt just as bad or worse from not resting the injury. I don't blame the product for this, I'm just saying it really gets rid of the pain so amazingly that you actually have to be careful not hurt yourself worse. Kind of equal parts wonderful and dangerous if you're like me and can't just lay off the activity for awhile. It has a very beneficial use for chronic pain situations, or to give a respite from the pain of an injury, but I'd be careful using it as a way to rush back into an activity full tilt as I did the first time. That said, I have used it w/ great results safely now that I know what it can do. Hope that helps.
