My friend and I split it, and his problem (muscle strain) saw immediate (3 days at 20 tabs a day...standard dose for enzymes) pain relief and after only 2 weeks of therapy he was back in action. Not only was pain gone, but his muscle healed. This was according to his physical therapist and primary care physician.

My facial muscle strain occured on March 18, 2009 from a vicious hockey hit to the jaw and caused Temporary TMD(aka TMJ) and facial muscle strain from chewing when my joint was out of whack. Doctor put me on 3200mg ibruprofen for 30 days, and did nothing but slow the soft tissue healing. I later read it's a common problem with NSAIDS. I took tons of vitamin C, protein, aminos, magnesium, very good multi, you name it. All helped a little, but as soon as the enzymes were started.......well lets just say it's been a blessing. Anways, I still had this problem as of early July, when I started the enzymes, but after half the bottle of enzymes it's virtually gone. Muscles are relaxed and pliable, joint inflammation is gone. I used them once before for rosacea issues and they took the burning and stinging away for good.

I just want the public to be educated. I'm not saying Cissus might not work for you, but it didnt for me or the only other guy I know on a personal basis. I also don't work for any nutrient company. I work for the Fed Govt. Sometimes my friends/family tell me I should become a nutritionist because I have a huge interest in health. But I dont' have any affiliation or reason to promote anything unless it actually worked for me and I feel I can help others. Just don't get Systemic enzymes confused with digestive enzymes. Their similiar, but systemic enzymes are enteric coated for release in the small intestine and work by breaking down proteins in the blood. Europeans use them as a prescription. They are actually the #2 top selling pain relief under aspirin. Only reason they are 2 is because they are so expensive. But their are no side effects. And they are actually good for your body even if your not injured.

Ok. Enough rambling, do your own research on them. Only 2 major brands exist, though. Wobenzym N (original European) and Flavenzym (vitacost knockoff). I've used both personally. Very similiar effect and exact same formula.

Any other questions, let me know. I've read a lot of books on supplements. Linus Pauling has a good one on vitamin c. Plus he's the only 2 time nobel prize winner in the history of the prize.
What is the lot number on your Cissus bottle?

Where is the research that digestive enzymes sorry "systemic enzymes" help tendonitis and break down the "protein" in the blood?

I'm all for open discussion.

Just a bit weird that you even ventured to use cissus when you are a pitching the european miracle drug on my forum.

If what you are pitiching works so well, why purchase Super Cissus Rx?
