Don´t take pills; eat onions!

Hey that's a great tip, thanks! Lucky I love onions. I learned a vegetarian recipe from you tube and now I make onion gratin soup, it's amazing.

I do use onions alot in my cooking & i like them raw w/some foods also. I usually buy white onions. I love vadalia onions but u just get them part of the year. They are grown in georgia & they are so sweet & good.

I know that there are good things with the things we eat, but the problem is, too much of something will not be always good for you. For one thing, if you eat all those onions all the time, then soon you'll smell like them. Hehehehe.. Further, onions aren't the only ones we can live on. Similarly, it would be quite dangerous if you should suddenly stop taking the medicines you are taking for conditions like hypertension and diabetes.

Huh, you mean that onion that's been sitting in the refrigerator too long is good for me? Cool. I like my onions COOKED, doesn't matter what kind!

I prefer red onions, coz i feel it is tastier than white onions. But white onions are used for the medicinal purposes.

i just realized that white onions are actually yummier when my friend once introduced that to me. Regarding cooking, I usually add onions just for the good smell but I don't really eat them as they may cause bad breath. Is it true?

Onion is always one of the ingredients i need in my kitchen I cannot moved without it eventually i felt like there is no taste at all if there is no onion at all and yes i agree that it is healthier for us....

I use onions a lot in my cooking and I agree that there isn’t very much that won’t be enhanced by onions! I wasn’t aware that onions are so nutritionally good for us.Interesting to read they are good to fight cancer with... I almost always use white onions and I have been known to store them for a while before using them.

When I was a teenager I used to hate onions, and never wanted anything to do with them. However, during my twenties, I contracted asthma, and through some research, found out that raw onions help to alleviate the symptoms. Now I am not the type to just start munching on an onion out of the blue, but I have been eating them with food, such as in my cheeseburger, or other food. It has helped me. Not to the point where I can throw my inhalers away for good (I wish..), but enough so that they are not needed quite so often. A lot of vegetables and fruits contain enough vitamins and antioxidants. It's been proven that a person who eats a healthy helping of fruits and vegetables every day will have a better immune system than someone who does not.

I love onions. in fact, when I cook, it is incomplete without onions. I believe onion is not only to make flavor the food but also an anti oxidant which is good for our lungs to prevent from any broncho diseases.

Are you refering to red onion, Onion, or garlic?? Because if i'm not mistaken, the one that have antioxidants is garlics. But then again, i could be wrong. But answering you question, I always cook with onions,and garlic. But I don't eat them fresh, because my breath will smells stink. But my favourite onions will be for Onion rings, I love those...

I mainly use red onions and put them on pretty much everything. Raw or cooked, they're a staple for my kitchen. You actually get the best benefits from onions by releasing as much juice as you can. Mince or finely chop your onions, and allow them to sit for 10 minutes or so before you cook with them or eat them. Letting them sit allows for the important thiopropanal sulfoxide to develop.

That's a great info for us moms. I always use both kind of onions. It's a good thing that my kids loves eating onions too. Also garlic . It's great for the heart and controls for bloods cholesterol level.

I never realized onions were so good for you. I have learned something new. Although most people don't like onions. I now have a reason to embrace them. Thanks for the information.

I usually use brown onions for most everything but in summer I use red when my daughter comes. I keep a bag of chopped onion in the freezer for emergencies and I also have a jar of dried onions. Onions have a wonderful flavour and I enjoy them raw and cooked. My only wish is to learn how to properly caramelise them in a fry pan. I've never been able to do that.

I do love onions! Glad to know they are so good for you. I had no idea! I tend to buy the white onions because they are cheaper, but I love the red ones too.

Hello there! Im an onion lover as well nowadays... Before, when i was young, i used to hate veggies especially onion and garlic. Here in our country we always used onion, garlic and tomatoes for our viands. I hate them really because they are always there in almost our everyday dishes. When i grew much older, and became educated in school about the goodness of vegetable in our health, i appreciate veggies little by little including onions. And now that im a homemaker already, i salute onions for making my dishes delicious as ever. Yes, ive heard that it contained lots of therapeutic properties not to mention its very good taste. I could eat them raw in my burgers or sandwich, i love them in my pizzas as well and likes them hot when cooked as onion rings for my snack. I love both white and red onions, they're sweet when already cooked. Good night!
