But, as tonic water contains quinine, which is useful for fighting malaria, I wonder if tonic might possibly maybe work like hydroxychloroquine, which also fights malaria.
Mostly meant it as a joke. But I am still curious if tonic might help get zinc past the cell membrane.
Maybe I’ll DuckDuckGo for info and update what I learn.
Not to sound schoolmarmish, but tonic water has A LOT of sugar in it and sugar is bad for your immune system. So maybe the quinine would help, but I think at best you'd have a wash. Happy to have this hunch proven wrong by experiment, though.
Not a Dr. myself, and I figure you are just joking, but you can probably get quinine as a liquid extract somewhere.
Tequila and lime/simple syrup? Rum and coke?
Sounds good! Especially if the Tequila is Patron!

Yep, just joking. And, great point about the sugar.
