At my household we regularly eat most of those foods, but from now on I will buy red onions instead of the cheaper yellow onions. Plus, my wife and I started taking Quercetin capsules just last week, in addition to zinc, vitamins D, C, and B12, and other multivitamins and calcium. We lead healthy lives, gym 5 days a week, and don't smoke or drink, and for years now I have drunk Publix Diet Tonic Water with lime juice for dinner, so I don't get the sugars that come in the regular tonic water, and I have been ingesting its Quinine for all these years. I'm trusting my natural immunity for an illness that is 98% survivable.
Be careful of any artificial sugars in diet drinks. They can be really bad for you. Aspartame has some really toxic effects.
But sparkling waters overall are pretty good for you.
The quinine in tonic water is really quite negligible in terms of having the HCQ prophylactic affect. I followed a recipe posted here that involves grapefruit and lemon rinds. The end result is basically home-made HCQ that's full of very potent quinine. My husband and I have been taking 2 tablespoons each day with vits C, D, and zinc.

Good, thanks.
Switch to regular sparkling water with some lime for flavor. Diet anything is bad for you
Sparkling water does not contain quinine, and that is the whole point of drinking tonic water.
Lol I always wondered why people drink tonic water hahaha carry on. But still diet anything is not good.
The Brits drank tonic water for many years in their tropical colonies as an antimalarial drug and it seemed to have worked.
Thanks, I'll have to check out this diet tonic water. Which section do you typically find it in?
At Publix, it's in the soft drinks aisle. Other stores carry their own brands, just check the ingredients to make sure it has Quinine. And the diet versions don't have sugar, so that's a bonus.
My local supermarket has their own brand of quinine, which doesn't have sugar, but is not labeled as diet.
For several decades the British colonial societies in their tropical colonies drank tonic with with quinine to fend off malaria and dengue fever. It appears to have had some beneficial effects. They also liked to spike the drink with English gin, thus the drink we have today of "gin and tonic." Of course the gin has zero health benefits, but mad dogs and Englishmen....
Should be fine then.
Thanks Fren! I'll get some today
Unfortunately, the Publix diet tonic water contains sucralose AKA Splenda as well as acesulfame potassium (Ace-K).
Both Splenda and Ace-K can mess with gut health. Some studies have shown Splenda can mess with fertility but they've been buried by the pro-Splenda studies.

Can't go wrong with Q tonic if you're wanting some quinine-

Fyi... came across this looking for more information...
"Onions contain calcium, potassium, vitamin C and folate. ... There are still many benefits of raw garlic and onions, but this is good news for those who prefer them cooked. However, cooking them longer than 30 minutes can destroy most of the beneficial compounds.Feb 8, 2012 https://www.triathlete.com › recipes Overlooked Superfood: The Onion - Triathlete Magazine"
So it sounds like a quick sauteeing would retain most of the nutritional value of red onions.
Thanks... the question on this is how much Quercetin the red onion would retain with cooking, not the nutritional value. Or are they the same thing? It would seem that a plant's chemical makeup would remain intact while other characteristics might be changed by the heat. I'm no nutritionist and sincerely want to know how this works.
