Description:

Quinin HCL powder is a kind of material obtained by processing the bark of the American Botrytis cinerea, which is a native plant in South America that has been used by American Native people as a calorminator for centuries. This substance has historically been used to treat malaria, and there are some other medical conditions, although some malaria drugs are still used in some areas on the market today. It is also commercially used as a supplement to water, a soft drink, in addition to being consumed directly, as a mixer for other beverages.
