Secrets of the Tribe Quinine Capsules 1000 mg Wildcrafted Quinine (Cinchona officinalis) Dried Bark, Leg Cramp Support Supplement (60 Capsules)

This is the only herbs on earth that gets rid of the cramps my mom gets at night. The bad thing is that it lowers your blood pressure and sugar level and can harm you or even kill you so so not worth it especially since my grandmother almost died from her sugar going down. So I think she would rather put up with the cramps than die from the side effects...other than the other thousands of things I have bought for her this is the only thing that kills the nerve connections in her toe that prevent the cramp from happening every night.

Approx 10 yrs ago my husband suffered the side effects of severe leg & body cramps due to cirrhosis of the liver. We tried desperately to purchase pure quinine (even on the black market with no luck) but at the time the FDA ban the sale and the only product available was Hylands for leg cramps with the ingredient quinine written in Spanish. Did help some, so not saying anything negative about their product. I'm now at the age of suffering from severe osteoarthritis and due to poor circulation (even wearing the ole lady compression stockings) have begun to get those shocking cramps in my thighs, calves & toes. Thrilled to find this product available. Have been taking 1 every morning for approx 3 to 4 weeks & have yet to have a full-blown attack. recently went to stand on tiptoes, felt like toes were going to spazz out, placed heel back on floor immediately and the feeling passed. So far so good. Will update review if & when an attack should appear after continuing long term with this product. At this time, I highly recommend if you are suffering the same. It's definitely worth a try.

Quinine is not only good for cramps. It also is a very good supplement to prevent catching a cold or flu. I once would catch bad colds every fall into winter months. The past 4 years I have been taking this supplement I have had one small episode of a cold. I upped the dosage along with more D and C and the cold was gone in 4 days. Only one small cold in 4 years compared to every year multiple times. Quinine, or the Cinchona Tree is a gift from God above.

We regulary take quinine and this is easy to take

Right now I got the best night sleep in literally months. I started taking another product that deals with horrid night cramps I had no cramps for about a month but then they came by with a double whammy. I have tried everything. I got these yesterday and took them last night and I slept amazingly well. I will tell you more after awhile. Its hard to say anything anymore. When I say I have tried everything I tried everything, including wearing compression socks during the day. I hope this helps someone else out there. It has been months of torment and I saw my physician for them and he couldn't find the root cause. I usually drink about a gallon of water a day. I am a massage therapist and I have to stand most of the time. I even tried tonic water, by the way the kind without of the sugar stuff in it. Pure tonic water is expensive. Easy to swallow pills if someone doesn't like to swallow them. I saw a review on here where someone took 4 at bedtime. I only took 2. I don't usually cramp during the day, stretching makes it worst, but i try to do it anyway.

A friend recommended these - they have been a huge help for her nighttime foot cramps. I took them for two weeks and they helped me with foot cramps I often get during evening Pilates class. However, at that point I went for my annual eye exam and the doctor found bleeding on one optic nerve. She researched quinine and found that it has been associated with this problem, so I quit taking these capsules. There is no way to know if this actually is associated with my eye issue. However, I learned that quinine can have some serious side effects. One problem with these capsules is that the provider is able to tell you how much of the quinine containing material is in each capsule, but not the actual amount of the quinine. This seems like a serious issue. It is important to know how much of the active drug you are getting.

I am glad neighbor delivered it to me. The quality of the product is quite honestly very good. I could sleep better without having a cramp on my leg, but I will be cautious to take it not so often.

I took this as a prophylactic measure for a few weeks then got lazy and skipped a week; within a few days my family came down with a flu (body aches, fever, chills sinusitis etc...) and we started taking the quinine again...we all started feeling better within 6-8 hours and we got better in three days! It worked the same as a Z-pak that I had to go to the Doc and pay BIG $$$ for a year ago. Get this and keep it handy!!!
