Which Cissus to get? Super Cissus Rx or NP Cissus Caps 50%

What is the difference?
Has anyone used both? Which one is better?

The lower percentage extracts are better for joints and supercissus is the best in my opinion. I would buy the higher extract for anabolic dosing if that is your goal. I don't leave home with out my supercissus.

so you wouldnt see as much muscle gain from a lower percent cissus as you would a higher percentage one? Would the higher percentage one work for joints just as well?

silverSurfer · 02-15-2008, 06:44 PM

I need both benefits, so am I covered by getting the higher percent?

I think the anabolic effects of Cissus are overstated and there are far better compounds for that purpose. As for the joint pain, again I see no real difference in extraction. Supercissus works just as well for me as the 40 or 50% ones.

Help me understand this, Supercissus is 10%, does that mean that each capsule yields 750mg with 10% ketosterones?

So if there is no real difference I should get the NP Cissus since it is cheaper, right?

I personally have had much better results for joint pain using lower extract cissus. I have never tried using it for anabolic purposes as Wanderlei stated there are much better things available

Awesome, thanks.

I just read some reviews on PrimaForce Cissus and I think I'll get that instead.

Thanks again.

Cissus is a very useful compound. Sure there are several cissus products around with very good reviews. I have only used Osteobolin-C, though, and found it very potent. The Vitamin C it comes with directly supports collagen synthesis.

ive used them all, most are pretty good, but I have the best results for joint pain with USP labs Supercissus personally.

Props for Supercissus.... I've ran the 5% and 40% and I'd have to say the 10% worked the best for me, and still does

AdelV · 02-18-2008, 08:49 AM

damm still confusing...

propho · 02-21-2008, 06:40 PM

Ya i'm a little boggled.. I figure you would just have to take less of the 50% extract.. I was thinking of only taking 1 cap of the 50% everyday..

**Ev52** · 02-21-2008, 07:50 PM

You still need to dose more than once a day. Stick with the lower extractions for joints. Incarnate is on sale for a great deal and you get beta alanine. Check nutra!

which one is best for cortisol suppression?

**Ev52** · 02-21-2008, 08:52 PM

I would suggest a cortisol blocker as cissus only suppresses cortisol a little. I don't know if certain extracts suppress it more.

propho · 02-22-2008, 12:55 PM

hrmm okay well 2 caps of the 50% =P

I've tried bulk powders (5 and 10%), USP Supercissus, Primaforce, and NP's 50% caps. My vote goes to NP's caps.

I've been taking 4 caps/day of NP's cissus caps and I will continue taking them as long as they are being made. Honestly, I saw a benefit from all cissus products I've taken, but it seems from a price/% extract perspective, NP caps are the way to go. Now if a lower % works better than that is another story. I'm kind of curious why that is the case.

I just know that NP caps have kept my nagging shoulder injury in check.
