Long term relief and restoring joint function, Animal Flex hands down.

Temporary pain relief in a shorter amount of time Cissus. However, once you go off cissus your pain will be back. I personally use both products, but I use cissus for its other benefits such as weight management, GI function, and anti-inflammatory. I don't believe it does anything for restoring joint function other than slighly mask pain.

So i can take both at same time? and if i can take both at same time. should i cycle off of cissus bout every 8 weeks? i wa slooking at flex and i liek that.. but if both have alil different then why not both.. but u know more is not always better. If i could take both i will but if not i'll prob take flex.

There is absolutely no problem taking both. I take 1/4tsp bulk Super Cissus 2-3x/day and 1 pack of flex with my dinner. Cissus is a great product, but I don't feel its effects on joints is anything more than masking pain and discomfort. Its other benefits greatly outweigh any possible joint help you'll get from it.

Hundreds of testimonials claim the opposite but not disagreeing with your belief.

Got studies to prove your point

The only studies Ive seen are for recomp , muscle building, and supporting a healthy body.

I think it does mask the pain and that's all as well

i could certainly see the pain being masked as the user assuming their injury had healed faster.

I'm prob going to get both and drop some of my supplements just to necessity(protein, preworkout, and creatine.) my joints are more important than supplements.. i'll do hard work and diet and stick to joint supports rather than supplemnts!!

Animal Flex

One of the key components to bodybuilding progress is consistency--paying your dues day in and day out in the gym. The cumulative effect of this daily wear and tear over the weeks, months, and years, can be profound. When you're building a house, a big one, you need to make sure the foundation is rock solid because that house puts tremendous pressure on the foundation. Now your body's foundation is your joints, ligaments, tendons, and all the connective tissue--the necessary stuff that supports your muscles, your training. The harder you train, the more massive amounts of weight and the numerous sets and reps performed in a typical workout, the more stress you put on your foundation. This constant pounding can take its toll, weaken it. And when a foundation crumbles, the house comes tumbling down. Animal Flex is designed to help strengthen your body's foundation, to help protect your joints from the daily grind brought about by heavy duty weight training. Each pack of Animal Flex consists of several key joint protection complexes: (1) a potent joint construction complex to help repair connection tissue; (2) a lubrication complex to help cushion the joints from lifting; (3) a support complex to help promote rehabilitation and reduce soreness; and (4) a key vitamin/mineral support blend to help underscore optimal joint health. Animal Flex is your armor against the rigors of iron warfare. It is complete, comprehensive and effective.

Hi, John. I personally like the basics. Glucosamine and cats claw.
