About Raw onion slices

Raw onion slices are a widely used ingredient across various cuisines, from salads in Mediterranean dishes to garnishes in South Asian meals. Packed with flavor, they bring a sharp, pungent taste that enhances many recipes. Onions are rich in vitamins C and B6, along with antioxidants such as quercetin, which may support heart health and immunity. They are low in calories, fat-free, and contain small amounts of fiber, contributing to digestive health. Additionally, onions provide sulfur compounds that may have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Despite these benefits, their strong flavor and high sulfur content can be harsh on sensitive stomachs, potentially causing digestive discomfort or bad breath for some individuals. Their versatility in dishes makes raw onion slices a popular choice for those seeking nutrient-packed plant-based options, though moderation is key for optimal enjoyment and health benefits.
