The onion medicinal plant 2015

The naturopathy association in Germany, Theophrastus, has named the onion the medicinal plant of 2015, reports the German website food-monitor.de. The association wants to bring attention to the healing power of onions. Whether the onion is in the form of a syrup, juice, tea or tincture it can help with colds and earaches, and it can dissolve mucus and fight a lack of appetite.

Onions enrich what you eat and contain many positive components; including vitamin C, vitamin A, B vitamins and vitamin E, as well as minerals and trace elements such potassium, phosphorus, zinc and manganese. Valuable mustard oils in onions work as an antibacterial agent and support digestion.
