Onion disease prevention
Onion is a food with antibiotic properties that are not inferior to any drug currently in circulation, including drugs used in cases of tuberculosis.
Although there is no shortage of medicinal herbs that can kill bacteria, parasites, and mold, up to now, pharmaceutical experts have consistently ranked onions in the top group for antibiotic properties based on biological mechanisms, meaning they cause few side effects.
Like antibiotics
Russian doctors, after comparing the effects of hundreds of medicinal herbs according to the criteria of modern pharmacology, have asserted that onions are a food with antibiotic properties that are no less than any drug currently in circulation, including drugs used in cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. The antiseptic effect of the respiratory tract is even more evident if eaten raw or mixed with oil and vinegar.

Therefore, if you are not used to eating onions, you should practice to take advantage of the effectiveness of onions to prevent respiratory infections. Chewing raw onions is not really delicious, but it is an effective way to disinfect the throat area by using the mechanism of runny nose and tears to eliminate impurities that stick to the respiratory mucosa before the toxins gather enough force to cause inflammation or allergies. There is no shortage of onions in our country, why do we let sinusitis and rhinitis run rampant?
It sounds easy to say but it is not easy to apply the method of eating raw onions because many people are not used to its pungent smell and spicy taste. These people should remember Sebastian Kneipp, a famous monk who was once a physician of the Austrian Royal Family. He "designed" a very simple mouthwash. That is, chop onions, soak them in honey overnight. Then add filtered water in the ratio of 1 honey, 3 water and use this solution to gargle once an hour for people with respiratory problems.
The nemesis of blood fat
If you only rely on antibiotic properties to praise onions, it is like looking at onions through their skin. Many research results in the past two decades have shown that onions are the nemesis of blood fat. Unlike the common mechanism of action of many anti-blood fat drugs that passively reduce cholesterol, that is, wait until cholesterol has manipulated the "market" before starting to take "sanctions", onions have a much more thorough effect through a direct impact on the liver's fat metabolism function. In other words, instead of chasing and arguing with blood fat, onions actively gain the upper hand by promoting the synthesis of beneficial fats for the body to create a competitive situation. The more beneficial fats, such as HDL, in the body, the more atherosclerotic fats, cirrhosis, and kidney-damaging fats such as LDL and triglycerides will have to take a backseat. Adjusting fats like this is clever because it does not tire the liver, which is already unhealthy.
The difficulty for physicians has always been that there is no shortage of toxic fat-reducing drugs that come with a lot of side effects, while the means to improve the level of good fats are very rare. Unfortunately, many physicians forget about onions. This should not be missing from the diet of people with cardiovascular disease, or more comprehensively, from the diet of anyone who wants to actively control the amount of fat in the blood. If you have to cry in the kitchen corner while slicing onions, it is still worth it because crying over onions is more pleasant than crying over a serious illness.
