Onions have a lot more nutritional value than we give them credit for. Although I use onions practically everyday in my cooking, I never knew they had so many health benefits. I was reading an article today which listed a host of health benefits that are contained in onions. Some of these benefits are listed below.
Onions contain vitamin C and vitamin B6, as well as folate and iron. They are good antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties. They are even good for bone health. If taken regularly, they can also prevent various kinds of cancers, including breast and prostate cancer. They are also good for diabetics.
So next time you are cooking, and most likely you will be using onions, remember the many health benefits that they contain. You may even want to use a little more in your cooking next time around.
My favourite onions are the ones shown below.
