    Homemade quinine from citrus fruit

    I saw a post on Facebook where someone mentioned you can make your own quinine out of grapefruits and lemons. I had never heard of that before but when I did some searches apparently it's true. This article was from 2012 but there are many more to be found about how to make it.


    -After my recent trip to Germany I developed a hacking cough which gave me headaches and made me dizzy at times. I very seldom get colds because I exercise regularly, take my vitamins and eat a healthy diet. Therefore, I wasn't too concerned when the cough persisted for more than a week. When somebody asked me if I had done something for this bronchial cough, I listened up. I checked out natural treatments for bronchitis.

    What is Quinine?

    Quinine is a natural white crystalline alkaloid. Quinine or Tonic water it is a good bitter and helps with digestion. It also helps to control bacteria, pain, fungus, inflammation, and stress. It also has a muscle relaxing agent and works well to treat leg cramps.

    Where do we find Quinine?

    Quinine is naturally found in the cinchona tree in the forests of South America and has been used successfully to treat malaria malaria. It is also found in the rinds of citrus fruits like grapefruits and bitter lemons.

    What are the benefits of Quinine Tea?

    Quinine has many uses and applications. It is analgesic, anesthetic, antiarrhythmic, antibacterial, antimalarial, antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antipyretic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, antiviral, astringent, bactericide, cytotoxic, febrifuge, fungicide, insecticide, nervine, stomachic, tonic.

    I want to focus here on the making of quinine water from grapefruit rind...

    Have you seen one of the latest videos where Trump is saying he's forcing pharmaceutical prices down and he's going up against some very rich and powerful "middlemen"? And he uses that word several times.

    He also says in it that, "you probably won't see me for awhile" which people are interpreting that he needs to be secured for fear of assassination.
