I had been using another brand of cissus in pill form. It was very effective but I decided to buy in bulk to save money. First off like everyone else had stated the product tastes horrible. But I knew this before I bought the product. After the first couple days I felt that I made a mistake because of how bad the product tasted. However I did get used to it and instead of trying to hide the taste by putting it with something else(that does not work). Eventually I just put it directly in my mouth and chased it with a protein drink or some other beverage. As far as effectiveness I do feel this product works good. It made my joints feel much better. Plus I have some bad neck pain that I deal with at times(messed it up by laying on the side of my head for years). Regular joints supplements do not help this only cissus does. This stuff does the trick. Between my chiropractor and the cissus my neck feels pretty good. And you can not beat the price. I would definitely recommend this if you can handle the taste. I also tried the other bulk cissus here on Bodybuilding.com by LiveLong and will post a review soon.

Off the bat, terrible taste, mix it with something strong. I prefer the powder to the capps because less additives, and quicker ingestion. I take this to help my weight management, and muscle/bone recovery I am currently undergoing. I have seen definite improvements, however my body took some time to adjust to this. The first few times it made my stomach turn (I have a sensitive stomach) once my system adjusted and I was about a week in, I started noticing the benefits. Good quality, good price.

I have arthritis in my left shoulder and the pain was unbearable. I went to an orthopedic surgeon got an MRI and got a shot of cortisone and the surgeon gave me celebrex. the celebrex gave me headaches. cortisone shots will deteriorate your tendons and ligaments. and the long term effects of celebrex are bad to say the least. the surgeon wants to give me a shoulder replacement. I did some research and found cissus. I take it twice a day and I haven't been back to see the doc in over a year. it makes a night and day difference. it works very well. I have recomended it to other people. one person said it gave him an upset stomach. [small price to pay considering the benifits] I prefer the powder. it taste terrible but for me it seems to work better. I let it dissolve under my toung.

Good product I didn't notice how gooit worked until I ran out

Tasted horrible (not that they said it wouldn't), can't say that using 4-6g a day for two containers worth improved my wrist pain much (tendon tear), and the freshness seal on both containers that I received were opened + there was only about 70g in one of the containers... Overall, the product's a good value for your dollar I guess but would probably go with USP's SuperCissusRx if I could do it all over again (despite bb.com + Primaforce's superb customer service); less headache and hassle that way...

Awesome product with an awesome extract ratio that works well for ligaments and joints. Am using in conjunction with USPlabs Super Cissus Rx. I may have to get the capped version of this next time though as shotting it back tastes like giving the devil a rim job.

Just started taking this product yesterday. So far after 1 and a half servings my joint/connective tissue pain has gone down by about 50%. Wish i had ordered this sooner or i wouldn't have had to have missed my shoulder workout. Taste is bad, but get over it. It works and this will be a staple for a long time. Only complaint i have was when i opened the lid i must have lost a few servings because some powder was on top (stuck to the lid i guess)and immediatly spilled out.

not a bad product help a lot for me in my legs from the kickboxing and running in which i could not get out of bed in the morning..for joints i did not notice much but still a good product,, in kicks in after a week

I've had chronic tendonitis for 8 months and have been using 2 scoops a day of this to try to help it. Just before starting use of this, I did a 20 day run of SuperCissus RX by USPLabs (you can read it here http://anabolicminds.com/forum/usp-labs/144071-supercissus-rx-heres.html ) and I had pretty excellent results with it. Since this bulk powder has a higher ketosterone concentration than SuperCissus Rx I thought I would have good results with it, however I've noticed very little improvement in my knees. The taste, which is gag-worthy and has indeed made me throw up once on a broken parachute only compounds my distaste (bad pun) for this product. I'd recommend SuperCissus Rx (caps) over this. I'll be trying USPLabs' version of bulk cissus powder when this container runs out and will probably post a review there. 4/10 overall 1/10 taste

Didn't notice a difference with or without it. Tastes awful.

I am 60 years old and have been doing CrossFit for 2 years. Any of you who have done crossfit know it's hard on your knees. I have already some arthritis, so I have neem looking for something tohelp with the pain and inflammation. Cissus does a great job on both. The only problem is the HORRENDOUS taste of the stuff. I discovered if I put it in a little bit of cold coffee and put some cinnamon on top of the coffee and gulp it down, I can get past the taste. Needless to say, I will be looking for a pill version to use in the future.
