I knew somebody was talking about Quinine for Wuhan flu but couldn’t remember what it was supposed to do.

IF YOU TAKE ZINC WITH THIS RECIPE, THE ZINC PROPELS THE QUININE INTO YOUR CELLS FOR A MUCH FASTER HEALING.

14. HERE IS ALL YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE YOUR VERY OWN QUININE......TAKE THE RIND OF 2-3 LEMONS, 2-3 GRAPEFRUITS. TAKE THE PEEL ONLY AND COVER IT WITH WATER ABOUT 3 INCHES ABOVE THE PEELS.PUT A GLASS LID ON YOUR POT IF YOU HAVE ONE, A METAL ONE IS FINE IF YOU DON'T.

15. LET IT SIMMER FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS. DO NOT TAKE THE LID OFF OF THE POT TILL IT COOLS COMPLETELY AS THIS WILL ALLOW THE QUININE TO ESCAPE IN THE STEAM.

16. SWEETEN THE TEA WITH HONEY OR SUGAR SINCE IT WILL BE BITTER. TAKE 1 TABLESPOON EVERY COUPLE OF HOURS TO BRING UP THE PHLEGM FROM YOUR LUNGS. DISCONTINUE AS SOON AS YOU GET BETTER.

17. PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH THOSE THAT NEED TO REDUCE FEAR AND ALLOW THEM TO SEE THAT GOD IN ALL OF HIS GLORY, PROVIDES US WITH ALL THAT WE NEED.

(sorry for the shout...was the first recipe I found....Spokeshave)

Very good info, will save. Interesting anecdote - in 2009 during swine flu, a friend in Brazil felt sick, her husband was in the city and she was alone in the country and wanted to know what to take. I asked if she had citrus trees, and she had some lime trees. I told her to make a strong tea of the peels, lid on, simmer, and take small doses frequently. I did not know about the quinine, but did know that citrus peels/the oils have strong anti-microbial potency.

She got better.

Very good to know.

I think I’ve seen that recipe with simmering citrus peels before, but given as a recipe for quercetin, not quinine. That would make sense to me, as quinine is derived from cinchona tree bark, while citrus fruit is a source of quercetin.
