I was doing some reading on a bodybuilding site where some guys were extolling the virtues of a product called Super Cissus for tendon healing. Have you heard of cissus, MrsD?

Please don't confuse magnesium with manganese. Magnesium is very different.
Manganese has a narrow therapeutic index, meaning a small window where it is useful, then may become toxic if overused.
This is why I put the MANganese link up.
I am sorry, I don't know much about cissus... but it does look inexpensive so far. Here is a WebMD link about it.
