- Liquid extract of Quina-quina (Chinchona calisaya) bark
- Natural source of Quinine
Quina is an extract produced from the bark of Cinchona calisaya, a tree that is native to the Amazon rainforest in South America and grows at between 1,400 - 2,800m above sea level. Chinchona trees are found on the Southern slopes of the Andes mountains from Columbia to Bolivia, and in some areas in the Northern Andes. Different species of Chinchona trees (Officianalis, Ledgeriana, Succirubra and Calisaya) are now cultivated in tropical areas all over the world, as they are all sources of Quinine - perhaps the most well known botanical to have come from the rainforest. Chinchona bark naturally contains many different alkaloids.
Usage
Put 1-15 drops in a glass and add 120ml (4oz) of water and wait one minute before drinking. Start with 1 drop twice per day and slowly increase to 15 drops twice per day, or as recommended by your practitioner.
