This support group is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain. Discuss treatments that have worked for you, find advice for your specific experience, and find support. You're not...
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.
I'll try anything!

I had heard this story before, twice with onions and once with potatoes. I think the onion makes more sense. My Great-Aunt believed it and every fall she'd put out one of her home grown onions! I don't know if she changed them every week till Spring but I know they were still there at Christmas!
Cut the ends off an onion and place it in a dish next to your bed at night. One story said it healed a woman with Pneumonia!
I'll be anxious to hear if this helps!
It is worth a try as now a days we try to do everything complex and you just never know.
Hugs!

when you cut the flesh of an onion it releases natural sulfuric acid into the air. that is why they make you cry. your nostrils fill up with the offending acid and cause your nose to run and your eyes to tear up in defense. sort of like how we release histamines when confronted with allergens and take medications to reduce the runny side effects our body is putting out their to wash the allergen away.
could airborn sulfuric acid be antimicrobial or anti viral, yes, quite possibly.
how interesting.
They do this now and no more feet cramps????????????
Hope I can remember this onion story if we get the cold/flu:)
Healing hugs to all
Decorate your house with onions to prevent the flu instead of waiting until you get it! I'm going to try it this year.
