There are many stories out their about onions, and using them to help battle the flu and cold virus.  Many from Blending up onions, and drinking it, to putting a cut onion on the table in every room in the house while you all are sick.  Here is just one story about that:

In 1919 when the flu killed 40 million people there was this Doctor that visited the many farmers to see if he could help them combat the flu. Many of the farmers and their family had contracted it and many died.

The doctor came upon this one farmer and to his surprise, everyone was very healthy. When the doctor asked what the farmer was doing that was different the wife replied that she had placed an unpeeled onion in a dish in the rooms of the home, (probably only two rooms back then). The doctor couldn't believe it and asked if he could have one of the onions and placed it under the microscope. She gave him one and when he did this, he did find the flu virus in the onion. It obviously absorbed the virus, therefore, keeping the family healthy.

The moral of the story is, buy some onions and place them in bowls around your home. If you work at a desk, place one or two in your office or under your desk or even on top somewhere. Try it and see what happens. I am doing this during this flu season.  I will post later to let you all know.  Why don’t you try it.  It can’t hurt.

Here is another thing that I was reading about blending onions:

The onion juice can have wonderful effects on flu virus and the common cold. You basically put the onions in a blender and blend until they turn into juice. The juice taste horrible, but if you can handle it and drink it. It will break up all the mucus in your chest and you will cough pretty hard for the next 5 to 10 min and all of the flem in your chest that is hard will come up. Then you basically feel like you just got knocked out so you take a nap for a 2 or 3 hours and you get up feeling very fresh. A few days later and your back to yourself. Sometimes you might have to do this routine 2 or 3 times over a few days for it to be very effective, but it does work.

If anyone has a story about an onion you would like to share please do so and leave a comment.  Onions are cheap and inexpensive.  What would you loose trying this.  IF anything just a dried up onion  woopee.
