Quinine water is primarily used to treat malaria and is not typically recommended for menstrual cramping. While quinine may have some muscle-relaxing properties, there is limited scientific evidence to support its effectiveness for alleviating menstrual pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers, heat therapy, and lifestyle changes are generally more effective for managing menstrual cramps. Always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate treatment options.

Can quine water help with circulation?

Quinine water contains a small amount of quinine, which is known to have vasodilatory properties.

It is always best to consult a healthcare professional for guidance on improving circulation.

Is it true that quinine water prevents restless leg syndrome?

It's the quinine itself that helps RLS (whether its in capsules or some other form, not just quinine water). Quinine has been used for years (since WW II) for nocturnal leg cramps. It helps by vasodilation (relaxes smooth muscle which causes increased blood flow). It can certainly help with RLS, but may not completely alleviate the signs and symptons. On the other hand it may for some people. Unfortunately, it is highly unlikely that someone with a true case of RLS would see relief with quinine water. There is simply not enough quinine in the water to do any good. The only prescription drug left on the market that contains quinine is a product called "Qualaquin." It has 324mg of quinine sulfate. That's plenty to do the trick, but it is very expensive and a doctor must write for it. If you have insurance give it a try.

Does bananas help you with your on your period?

Bananas can help some women during menstruation, they're a source of potassium which is needed in menstruation and can help to prevent menstrual cramps or other symptoms of 'PMS'. Generally speaking a good overall diet will help prevent a wide range of menstrual problems, eating banana's during menstruation isn't nearly as useful as a healthy balanced diet throughout your cycle.
