Ingredients

Onions

Directions

A friend of mine told me a story about how when he was a kid he was in

The hospital & near dying. His Italian grandmother came to the hospital

& told a family member to go buy her a large onion & a new pair of white

Cotton socks. She sliced the onion open then put a slice on the bottom

Of each of his feet & put the white cotton socks on him. In the morning

When he awoke they removed the socks. The slices of onion were black &

His fever was gone. The following story that someone sent to me might

Have some truth in it & we are going to try this this winter. 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 place 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 bacteria,therefore, keeping the family healthy.

Now, I heard this story from my hairdresser in AZ. She said

That several years ago many of her employees were coming down

With the flu and so were many of her customers. The next year

She placed several bowls with onions around in her shop.

To her surprise, none of her staff got sick. It must work...

(And no, she is not in the onion business.)

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. We did it last year and we never got the flu.If this

Helps you and your loved ones from getting sick all the better. If you

Do get the flu, it just might be a mild case..

Whatever, what have you to lose? Just a few bucks on onions! Now

There is a P. S. To this for I sent it to a friend in Oregon who

Regularly contributes material to me on health issues. She replied with

This most interesting experience about onions:

Weldon,thanks for the reminder. I don't know about the farmers

Story...but, I do know that I contacted pneumonia and needless to say I

Was very ill...I came across an article that said to cut both ends off

An onion put one end on fork and then place the forked end into an

Empty jar...placing the jar next to the sick patient at night. It said

The onion would be black in the morning from the germs...sure enough it

Happened just like that...the onion was a mess and I began to feel

Better.

Another thing I read in the article was that onions and garlic placed

Around the room saved many from the black plague years ago. They have

Powerful antibacterial, antiseptic properties.

It is not only interesting as I am a big believer of the power of onions. Each time anyone at home is sick. I slice onions and put them in a bowl with water. That bowl is then placed under the bed. By morning we feel better and certainly much less cough!

I keep onions in the pantry all the time. Unfortunately we consume the same too.

The story sounds like a bunch of bunk. But I wouldn't be averse to trying it. Just don't tell anyone.
