Premium Cissus extract standardized for ketosterone content

Cissus Extract is derived from Cissus quadrangularis, a perennial plant traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for bone and joint health. Our extract is standardized by gravimetric analysis to contain precise levels of ketosterones—the compounds believed responsible for its beneficial effects on bone metabolism and joint function. Available in 2.5% and 5% standardizations, our extract undergoes careful processing using USP-grade ethanol to preserve the plant's natural activity while ensuring purity and consistency.
