1. Benefits of OnionsHeart protection: Onions contain certain sulfides, which have anti-thrombotic effects and can prevent unnecessary platelet coagulation. In addition, this sulfide can also lower the cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the human body and improve the function of red blood cell membranes. In addition, onions are rich in antioxidant flavonoids, and eating onions regularly can help prevent heart attacks. Increase bone density: The sulfides rich in onions help promote the formation of connective tissue in the human body and can enhance bone density. People with low bone density can eat onions often, which will have a better improvement effect. Anti-inflammatory: The unique sulfide molecules in onions can inhibit the activity of macrophages in the human body, and the antioxidants in them help fight inflammation and prevent fatty acid oxidation in the body. Generally speaking, the lower the level of oxidized fatty acids, the fewer inflammatory molecules there are in the body. Anti-cancer: Regular consumption of onions can reduce the risk of cancers such as colon cancer and ovarian cancer. Antibacterial: The flavonoids and quercetin in onions have certain antibacterial effects. Eating onions regularly can prevent the body from bacterial infections and thus prevent colds. 2. Can onions be eaten after they sprout?Onions can be eaten after they sprout. Sprouted onions do not produce substances harmful to the human body, so they can be eaten. It’s just that after sprouting, the nutrients of the onion will be transferred to the top to facilitate the growth of the sprouts, so that the overall nutritional value of the onion will decrease. Therefore, try to place the onions you buy in the sun for a while. If you are not going to eat them for the time being, you can put them in a ventilated and dry place to prevent them from sprouting. |
