What are the benefits of quinine bark?

The best remedy for leg cramps at night is quinine bark. I’m not talking about the synthetic version that you need a prescription for. This is about the natural bark, which contains a lot less of the active ingredient, quinine. People have been using quinine bark as a remedy for numerous health issues for hundreds and hundreds of years. This natural bark was forgotten about for a while, after the synthetic version came out. However, quinine bark has made a huge comeback recently.
