CISSUS

Cissus quadrangularis is a plant that has been used in medicine since ancient times. It grows in the hottest parts of Ceylon and India. Ayurvedic texts say that Cissus quadrangularis has a general tonic and analgesic effect, with a special ability to heal bone fractures. Modern research has also shown that Cissus quadrangularis actively aids bone healing through the action of a glucocorticoid antagonist. In addition, Cissus quadrangularis accelerates the process of bone fusion and results in a significantly faster increase in the tensile force of the bone tissue.

Clinical trials of Cissus have shown that its use leads to a significant reduction in bone healing time (about 55-33 percent of the usual result)! In a number of clinical trials, it was also determined that Cissus quadrangularis stopped the bone weakening caused by the action of cortisol, and began the healing process rapidly!

IN FIGHTING OSTEOPOROSIS ...

Although there has been no formal research to prove that Cissus increases bone thickness in osteoporosis or helps prevent osteoporosis, the fact remains that this herb speeds up the healing of bone fractures. This fact gives every reason to assume that Cissus quadrangularis increases bone thickness in a disease such as osteoporosis and actively helps bone fusion in fractures, which are often caused by osteoporosis.

Continuous glucocorticoid therapy is a high risk factor for osteoporosis. Glucocorticoids are believed to interfere with the action of osteoblasts, the cells that are responsible for the formation of new bone tissue. The drug mefipristone (RU-486), both a glucocorticoid and a progesterone antagonist, has been used successfully to treat osteoporosis, but side effects such as endometrial hyperplasia are a fairly serious reason for discontinuing its mainstream use in osteoporosis. Cissus appears to be free of these side effects and may prove to be an important ingredient in the treatment of osteoporosis.

CISSUS AND KORTIZOL ...

While increasing the rate of treatment is important for people suffering from chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, the antiglucocorticoid properties of Cissus will be much more interesting for bodybuilders and athletes who have endogenous glucocorticoids, in particular endogenous gormone cortisol, found in the human body. , promote bone catabolism, thereby destroying skeletal tissue. Scientific research shows how glucocorticoids (including cortisol) cause muscle breakdown: they activate the so-called ubiquitin-proteasome (protein breakdown process). This tissue destruction process is essential to remove damaged and dysfunctional proteins. However, when he is overactive - during periods of high cortisol levels, for example, sickness, stress, overtraining, etc. too much good tissue is destroyed. Cissus , on the other hand, with its antiglucocorticoid effect, helps preserve muscle tissue during periods of physical and emotional stress.

CISSUS AND CONNECTING FABRICS ...

Although the bulk of Cissus research has focused on bone healing, there is research showing that C issus can increase the healing rate of any connective tissue, including tendons and cartilage. Thus, it has proven to be even more beneficial for bodybuilders and athletes. All people who have had ligament and tendon problems who have taken Cissus report a quick recovery from tendon disease.

EFFECTS ON HEALTH

The Cissus quadrangularis plant is rich in vitamins and antioxidants such as vitamin C and carotene. Freshly prepared mass of Cissus quadrangularis contains 479 mg of ascorbic acid per 100 g and 267 units of beta-carotene per 100 g. Thanks to this, Cissus quadrangularis will be useful for colds, during active sports, slow down the aging of the body and protect the cardiovascular system from various lesions.

DOSAGE

The typical recommended daily dose of Cissus extract is 500 - 1000mg, depending on the concentration of the extract and on the manifestation of various morbidity symptoms. Ayurvedic medicine recommends taking 3 to 6 grams of dried plant powder to speed up the healing of fractures. Safe experiments on rats have shown that the drug has no toxic effects even at a dosage of 2000 mg / kg of human weight. Thus, Cissus is not only effective but also quite safe, both in dry powder form and in extracts.

ANALYZE ACTION

Cissus also has analgesic properties. Cissus is comparable to aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen in fractional mg / mg. Cissus quadrangularis contains one of the components of the Ayurvedic medicine "Laksha Gogglu" , which has been proven to be highly effective in relieving pain, shrinking tumors and facilitating the healing process of both the fractures themselves and the related disorders that occur during fractures. The mechanism by which Cissus exhibits analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties has not yet been precisely determined. It can act both centrally and locally by preventing the conversion of arachidonic acid to inflammatory prostaglandin.
