About Raw onions

Raw onions are a crisp, flavorful vegetable known for their pungent aroma and versatility in cuisines worldwide, including Indian, Mediterranean, Mexican, and American dishes. They are low in calories and packed with nutrients, offering vitamin C, B6, manganese, and antioxidants like quercetin, which may support heart health and reduce inflammation. Onions are also a source of dietary fiber, promoting digestive health, and contain compounds like sulfur, which may have antibacterial properties. While their strong flavor comes with many benefits, raw onions can sometimes cause heartburn or stomach discomfort in sensitive individuals. They are a great way to add crunch and depth of flavor to salads, sandwiches, and salsas without adding significant calories, but those managing gastrointestinal symptoms may want to enjoy them in moderation.
