Onions – Cheap, Delicious, and Healthy


Your immune system feels down. When it gets a little colder, you feel sluggish, catch a cold or flu, and can\’t enjoy the winter. You think you are getting enough vitamins from fruits and supplements, but that may not be enough. So, make sure you consume more of these vegetables and you will be fine. Instead of lying in bed and curing your cold, you will be able to go out to the mountains with your friends. But what if you already have a cold? At least it will help speed up the healing process.

The cure for all ills is definitely onion tea. Believe me, it doesn\’t taste that bad. Cut an onion into small pieces, add grated ginger, squeeze in half a lemon, and pour hot water. Do not boil the water completely, however, so as not to destroy the vitamins and healthy ingredients! Sweeten with a teaspoon of honey and you have a miracle drink. It is good for colds and fevers.

Runny nose is a somewhat harmless ailment, but it can still interfere with daily life. Tissues are lying everywhere, and the nose is already scratchy and red. Forget about expensive nasal drops, which also damage the mucous membranes, and prepare some herbs and onions. Chop the onion again, add it to the herbs (chamomile, burdock root, lime, etc.) and pour hot water over it. Lean over the pot, cover your head with a towel and inhale the smoke. Your nostrils will gradually begin to relax. Also, place chopped onions in a bowl and place that bowl next to your bed, near your head, before going to bed. The bedroom may not smell completely after that, but the cold will go away in three days.

And finally, there is the sore throat. Perhaps the most annoying ailment is when you can\’t even speak. In such cases, our favorite vegetable, chopped up into small pieces, works again. Put them in a bowl and pour honey over them. Then cover the bowl with cling film and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. When the honey is poured over the onion, the juice will come out of the onion, which is then strained and drunk.

When you get sick, you may immediately run to the pharmacy and end up spending a lot of money on syrups and pills that do nothing for you. The right medicine is often found in the pantry at home.
