>The anti-malarial drugs chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are synthetic forms of quinine, a naturally occurring compound found in plants. Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine act as a zinc ionophore as do the other natural compounds quercetin and epigallocatechin-gallate (“EGCG”).
One thing, of many, that pisses me off is that we can't get anyone saying the really useful thing, which is
Quinine - which is in every fucking tonic water in every fucking supermarket - is also a zinc ionophore
Does anything think that synthetic forms of quinine have properties that natural quinine doesn't have? I don't. I think that if hydroxycholoroquine and chloroquine have these zinc ionophore properties, then quinine has them. It's been close to 2 years now. it took me a week to figure out that if quinine - which you can easily get in tonic water - is basically natural hcq, and hcq works, then quinine should work.
Why aren't we getting "QUININE WORKS" and it's easy to get? 2 fucking years.
