Health is key to long life, and no one should cheat you not to use cheaply available fruits like onion to keep your body health and fit.
Research has showed that millions of people sick with colds or the flu have gone to bed with sliced onions in their socks and woke up feeling refreshed. This sounds absurd, but there is a reason for it.
There are more than 7,000 nerve endings on the bottom of your feet that connect to the rest of you body. These nerves have been a major focal point of Eastern medicine for thousands of years.
Onions, also a key ingredient in Eastern medicine, are naturally anti-bacterial. A sliced onion can purify the air around it. The trade-off, of course, is that the clean air smells like onions.
Fans of this treatment claim that going to sleep with the onion on your feet releases your body’s toxins into the root vegetable, leaving you feeling healthy and refreshed in the morning.
It is therefore important to have that slice of onion in your socks, especially if they are smelly, to get all the benefits we have listed above.
