THOOSA’S NUTRITIONAL CHRISTMAS CALENDAR - 21


I keep reading about how brilliant onions are. Quercetin, found in onions, is a potent flavanoid which has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties. All of these amazing anti-things help fend off colds and infections. Also a recent study found that there was a 20 percentage drop in bad cholesterol levels in mice after an eight-week diet of red onions. So, we’re not mice. But there seem to be heaps of positive things about these beauties. Also we love a French onion soup so we’re definitely buying into the hype!
