NUtra's cissus powder or USP super cissus

im about to buy a huge order at nutra as soon as cycle support is in stock, but i dont have all the money in the world so was loooking to cut some corners price wise but not product wise....so i was wondering if nutra's cissus powder would be just as effective as super cissus by USPLAbS....im having problems with pain in my for arms and really need something to cure it so let me know of any reccomendations you guys have as far as cissus products go but these are the two i was looking at. if the super cissus is a lot better then i have no problem paying for it , just trying to save some bucks

look into osteobolin-c by applied nutrition. im taking cissus for same reason you are looking to. osteo-c is what i choose 240 caps for a decent price. im also taking incarnate but thats a little costlier but you get beta alanine.

yeah john, you dont have to say it. you're lucky you work for a company where you can hype the products without b.s. btw i was taking 3x2 of incarnate per day so i got the osteobolin to keep cissus level up and still be cost effective. now im taking 3x2 incarnate plus 3x2 osteobolin. plan on being on incarnate for 4 months. might just go for 4 months on paravol if my wife can hold up, so far she aint puttin up much of a fight.

THe difference now is capsule servings. You can take 3 caps of SuperCissus or 9 caps of the old Cissus usplabs formula.

Both products will ultimately give the same end result.

I take two servings a day, one in the morning, one at night. I have used the AN Ostebolin C product and have not noticed any difference between this and Nutra's bulk Cissus. I love Cissus, my joints love Cissus. I am going to try out Super Cissus in the future, just to see if there is any noticeable difference but the bulk stuff does me right.

I was taking 9 caps of Ostebolin C, now I take about 2 grams of Cissus a day. I measure mine out with a digital scale and my 1/4 teaspoon almost always weighs a gram.

I think it's always important to buy the innovator's product. Nothing against other companies at all, it's just that patents don't really exist in this industry and I always like to reward the company that brought it to market.

competition is a wonderfull thing. if there were a patent on cissus can you imagine what the price would be. take a look at the phamaceutical industry. as honorable as people might try to be, greed and the almighty dollar always win. i buy whats in my best interest, if i dont look out for me who will.

Agreed for the most part, patents are not readily available but you also don't have much government regulation either. It has its pros and cons. While it is important to support innovation, Cissus has been around for quite sometime for therapeutic purposes.

I agree that competition is a wonderful thing. It keeps companies on their toes, among other things.

I think it's important to consider this, though- if you enjoy innovative products, then it is indeed in your best interest to support the innovators. Supporting companies who take the risk of bringing something new to market will ensure that they receive the cash flow to bring new and innovative things to the market in the future, as well.

Being innovative is tiresome and very risky. You pour a lot of time and money into a product, hoping that in
