Cissus quadrangularis stem extract and joint health: a randomized double blind placebo controlled trial
Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2006
A standardized Cissus quadrangularis stem extract 150 mg per capsule, standardized to 2.5% ketosteroids. Supports joint health and body weight management as part of a healthy lifestyle.
Cissus quadrangularis is a succulent vine native to India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia. Known in Ayurvedic medicine as Hadjod meaning “that which joins bones” it has been used for over 3,000 years for bone and joint health. The stem contains ketosteroids (phytosteroids), flavonoids including quercetin and kaempferol, triterpenoids, and vitamins C and E. This formula uses stem extract standardized to 2.5% ketosteroids, ensuring consistent potency batch to batch regardless of natural variation in the raw plant material.
Ketosteroids are the primary marker compounds used to assess Cissus quadrangularis extract quality and potency. Standardization guarantees a consistent, verified minimum concentration in every capsule. Non-standardized Cissus products cannot guarantee ketosteroid content per capsule.
