Onion's medicinal power has been admired for centuries. Its curative properties come from the enzyme allinase, which also causes tears when cutting an onion. Onions are good for reducing cholesterol and preventing blood clots, as well as helping treat bronchitis, asthma, rheumatism, gout and for lowering blood sugar because of its powerful antibacterial and diuretic powers. Eating just 1/2 a raw onion daily raised HDLs (good cholesterol lipoproteins) by 30 percent in a recent study - but reseachers say raw or cooked onions are both good for you.
Wow, thats amazing! This is the kind of information they should teach in schools today. It would really help kids get into veggies. Haha, I'm only 13.
Hi, I Jerry Gatlin love Onions I eat them offten Raw and cooked I love eating them with Sandwitches and all foods. 11-4-06.
sounds interesting....
so thats y i have good health...i have a recors for eating 12 onions (white) straight at a camp...
and dus the health properties of an onion change as they go through colours?...i would expect so, becoz there are different ammountsm of the chemical that makes ur eyes water, although i have to rub white onions on my eyes for it to work for me...dont ask me how i know this...
I am now starting to learn more about onions and I now love a certain kind.
This is a good one, im trying to be more healthy now a days especially when it comes to reducing cholesterol. I also agree this stuff needs to be taught in school in the world of today. Jamie Oliver is being a trend setter for this though!!!
Onions often make me gassy and repeat on me but i only eat white onions does it mean that i should start eating red onions instead? or even green ones? My boyfriend really likes it when i rub him down with onions (I really suggest it!) i think the smell turns him on although he doesnt like the smell of breath after i eat them.

I eat onions every single day in almost all my meals raw or cooked.
I am 64 yr. I never been sick (hospitalized)in my life and I only looks like 50 yr.
Would of been better information if you would of mentioned the differant onions available and what each of them do for you, good and bad.
Other than that, I found the information very interesting.
Thanks
I have since a little kid at the most was always into onions and garlic. have always wondered if they were a good source of nutrition. then now 29,find on tv they so totally are. Most acidic foods are a good way to fight off toxins.
I love onions they are super cool and I must say that it delights me to know that there are sooo many other onion lovers out there. I would like to make some sort of club, perhaps it could be apart of the club to each week share a new and exciting recipe and onion moments that you may have had!

Onions are Good for us! because after we have eaten them...and still feel starving hungry! we que up at Mc'Donalds and everyone gets out of our way,because our Breath stinks so much! ie first in the que!!
I eat onions every day they help to keep my blood sugar down. All onions lovers just keep at it.
woooooooow that was a very helpful and interesting info.... i'll be eating onions from now on. this information should certainly be teached in schools as people would be aware of what is good or not good fro them.
my bp was high,but i realize that when i eat a pickle onion,that i bought from the store,i feel slightly light,and all of a sudden i feel a lot better,and am not taking any medication,from then i regularly eating raw onion
I think this a really info. I think they should really start teaching kids this at our school im 17 and ive never learned before until now (:
