Cissus Pro 1000 | Made in USA | Pure Cissus quadrangularis Extract | 120 Vegetarian Capsules

I had a car accident 6 mos ago which left me with some serious spinal damage and two torn rotator cuffs. After surgery on my neck, which I would rate thankfully as a success, and six months of recovery, I am now looking at shoulder surgery. My shoulders have hurt severely and have been very debilitating since the accident. I'm not allowed to use ibuprofen or like types of anti-inflammatories due to the fusions in my neck, so unless I chose to use narcotics to deal with the shoulder pain, I just had to tough it out. I like having a clear head so the narcotics have been used sparingly.About three months ago I started using fish oil and curcumin to promote healing and it worked! I started getting itching inside my shoulders where the tears are and I knew they where helping however, I still had a lot of pain and I was unable to support my weight with my arms due to that pain. They where also very painful to sleep on.Since I'm on temporary disability now, I have a lot of time to do research. I'm my late 50s and I have always kept myself pretty physically fit and strong and as such, I keep up with the bodybuilding world since they are quite technical in their sport and the supplements they use.While looking for supplements to promote repair of tendons and ligaments, I found many favorable reports on the use of Cissus. I had never heard of it before but found that it is becoming well known for helping with gym related injuries.I decided to try it. I went with Keter Wellness Cissus Pro because that's the only ingredient in the caps. The reviews where believable and favorable also.Two days after I started taking Cissus my shoulder pain subsided significantly enough that I was shocked. There is no doubt that the Cissus was responsible for the pain reduction. Over the past couple weeks my shoulder pain has gone to almost non-existent except when I move certain ways that directly effect the torn tendons. At rest and during typical movements below shoulder level I feel almost no pain. I can sleep on my sides without pain... after a little initial adjustment of my arm position.As an added bonus, I have a ruptured and fragmented disk in my middle back due to the accident. Although it hasn't been a major source of pain, after starting Cissus, I rarely feel any discomfort there.I've been "fortunate" to have three herniated disks in my lower back that have been an often debilitating source of pain for several years. After about a week of using Cissus I noticed my back not hurting as usual. I haven't complained of back pain for a week!! I was commenting to my wife about it just last night. Holy ....! This stuff is the find of a lifetime for me. No exaggeration. I hope it continues to be as effective as it is now.I take sometimes two caps a day and sometimes even four but I can't detect a difference in how I feel. I wish it would work as well for everybody as it has for me but every-body is different. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND trying it. If it works for you, you'll be really glad you did.UPDATE 2/22/15I've now been using Cissus for a couple months, in fact I'm here on Amazon to order a third bottle and thought I'd do an update.The product is still providing the same level of relief as it did when I first reviewed it. During this time I have stopped using Cissus for about a week, twice, and both times my lower back began to scream. I resumed my daily use and the pain again became manageable. It bothers me to think that I'm going to need this product as long as I live but I suppose it is a viable alternative to back surgery. As long as it works, I'll avoid the knife.

I have been using this product for a month and a half in hopes to help heal the stretched tendons in my ankle. I haven't noticed any difference. I rolled my ankle pretty bad two weeks ago. However, that said, I'm sticking with it because of it's prior reviews and because of that fact that I gave it to my dog for his broken foot, the result of a hit and run vehicle. I read that there were studies done in India whereby scientists broke the front leg of dogs and then gave them Cissus and they healed much more quickly. Bandit had not healed in a splint after eight weeks. I was so worried that it may never heal, require expensive surgery, or worse yet, amputation. I gave Bandit Cissus everyday for a few weeks while he was switched to a hard cast and was crated most of each day. I am happy to say now that his bone is healed! I'd like to think in some part that the Cissus helped. I will update this post if I ever stop rolling my ankle and let you know if it's worked for me.

This product almost completely relieved my chronic pain -- otherwise requiring daily norco -- within 24 hours. It was astonishing. Miraculous, even. I would have given it a 5+++ star rating except for intestinal upset.Sadly, with the pain relief came stomach cramps and severe diarrhea, even after I lowered the dose to once a day. I had to discontinue, a great disappointment because long-term use of norco has produced terrible eczema from the acetomeniphen content, and govermental scrutiny of norco users has become deplorably invasive. I'd like to be done with it.To their credit, the company stands behind their 30-day, full refund policy. After a short exhange of correspondence with the Peter, the president, I got a full refund, no quibbling. Keter Wellness is a principled and trustworthy company.

I've been using Cissus Quadrangular for off and on 8 years. There is a noticeable difference in many areas of health. I have some inflammatory issues and loose joints. I've suffered minor back and shoulder injuries among other tissue damage.I'm not saying this is a cure-all but depending on the amount you use, you're going to notice something. 1-2g for mild metabolic(with activity) and skeletal effects.At higher doses of 4-5g, you will notice a fair increase in anabolic activity(with heavy hypertrophic routines).While I'd definitely recommend this for all adult ages, the group I represent is anywhere from the gamer that does push-ups to all-star athletes.I suffered tendinitis in both my shoulders, suffered knee issues, and most recently started having pains and loosening in my thumbs. Cissus resolves or alleviates most of these symptoms and whenever I get in a strong exercise routine or even when I'm getting back into it, Cissus compliments it.My best friend and I both have trained off and on Cissus in general and this is the one supplement we won't remove from our workouts.The plus side of this company is it is in my opinion the purest (label wise). Organic Cissus is going to be more active and of higher quality than the bulk supplies you can find.If you are new to it, give it a month to build up, and don't look back.
