Cebola Branca (Uni) - Horta da Maria

Description

Onion is a popular food that is used as a seasoning in most dishes. It is also great for preventing and combating hypertension and diseases related mainly to blood circulation and the heart, such as high cholesterol or triglycerides.

Improves skin

Due to their antioxidant power, the presence of vitamins A and C and the flavanoid quercetin, they minimize premature skin aging by also fighting free radicals.

Anti-inflammatory

Fatty acids present in the body are harmful if they oxidize excessively. Flavonoids and antioxidants counteract this oxidation, improving the immune system. Thus, onions can help combat illnesses such as fevers, flu, and sore throats, among others.

Improves constipation

The calcium, magnesium and fiber in onions contribute significantly to intestinal health, increasing stool volume and improving stool flow.
