Cissus quadrangularis is a vining plant native to India, Thailand, and Africa that has been medicinally for centuries. The extensive list of applications of Cissus includes: bone fracture healing and tissue repair, prevention of osteoporosis, weight loss, blood sugar regulation, digestive disorders, menstrual irregularity, cholesterol and triglyceride lowering, anti-microbial, analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, tissue protective, joint health, increases lean muscle mass and other folkloric applications. Cissus is therefore used in bodybuilding supplements as an alternative to anabolic steroid.

Traditionally, powders and extracts of Cissus quadrangularis have been used for many years in treating a wide range of ailments. In general, the applications for the use of Cissus extracts appear to be very promising. Especially, the use of Cissus extracts in promoting bone fracture healing and preventing and reversing osteoporosis is supported by a growing number of studies in humans, animals and cell culture systems. A wide variety of animal and in vitro studies have demonstrated excellent anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, analgesic, tissue protective and antimicrobial activities of Cissus extracts. These activities are complementary to the activities of Cissus extracts regarding bone fractures and tissue healing and may explain the anecdotal benefits reported for Cissus with respect to joint and connective tissue repair.
The safety of Cissus extracts has been assessed in human, animal and cell culture systems, and at the concentrations and in the amounts as well as under the conditions used, the extracts of Cissus appear to be exceedingly safe. However, if Cissus extracts are to be used for the prevention of osteoporosis and degenerative bone condition, longer term safety studies as well as human efficacy studies will be required.
