The use of onions for health and immunity

Healing properties of onions are widely used in traditional medicine recipes

Scientists have long proven that vitamins play a huge role in the human body andthe lack of any of them will necessarily affect the state of health and well-being.

If there is an acute shortage of any of the currently known 13 vitamins, avitaminosis occurs, a dangerous condition leading to a decrease in immunity and various diseases.

Unfortunately, most vitamins are not synthesized by the body, but come exclusively from the outside with food. In addition, they are not postponed to the reserve, so it is useless to lean heavily on seasonal fruits and vegetables to provide them themselves throughout the winter.

In the winter-spring period it is quite difficult to provide your body with all vitamins regularly and in sufficient quantities, therefore, it is at this time of year that people suffer from vitamin deficiency. Common symptoms of winter-spring avitaminosis are drowsiness, lethargy, absent-mindedness, irritability, a constant sense of fatigue.

Often people lightly refer to vitamins and run to the nearest pharmacy for polyvitamins, suspecting signs of beriberi, which is unacceptable, because an overdose of synthetic vitamins can be dangerous and lead to the development of serious diseases.

Even the most innocuous substance taken more than the necessary daily allowance can cause serious damage to health. When the same vitamins enter the body in a natural way, with food, it is impossible to get hypervitaminosis( except for vitamin A).

Most often, people lack vitamin C, one of the most necessary substances that regulate all metabolic processes. It is a historical fact that in the era of the Great geographical discoveries of scurvy, a severe disease caused by a deficiency of vitamin C( ascorbic acid), more than two million seafarers died.

This disease increases the permeability of the walls of the vessels, bleeds the gums, loosens teeth, hemorrhages and bruises all over the body, cartilages are destroyed. And only when Captain James Cook in his famous world tour for the first time introduced into the diet of sailors fresh vegetables and greens, no member of the crew from scurvy died.

The lack of ascorbic acid in the body leads not only to scurvy, but also to anemia, cardiovascular diseases and reduces resistance to infections. Therefore, it is very important to ensure the daily and systematic intake of vitamin C along with food. The most accessible source is the common onion.
