A few years ago I wrote about the plant Cissus Quadrangularis (Click here for that write-up). Last weekend I decided to check up on where we stood with the plant. So I contacted the UK branch of WADA (World Anti Doping Agency) & got the reply that it now does not give a false positive. This is great news, but it will probably still be worth checking with your own federation you compete in & probably your own regional WADA office as I'm not sure how recent this is nor how long it will take any updated tests to filter through the system. I obtained the information from Sarah Foxton at ukad.org.uk (United Kingdom Anti Doping) & I'm not sure if it's the same worldwide, so check first! Also bear in mind with any supplement the risk of cross contamination is always possible.
I suppose I should take the time to check if there is any update on the research on cissus q as I kind of lost interest when I found out you couldn't compete while using it.
Just thought you'd like an update as this is quite a useful supplement.
