Onions are anti fungal. They are good for keeping your nerves calm. They are also very good for your stomach by keeping PH levels normal.

not much of any... onion has been proven good for overall health... it does however have quite a bit of sugar which is often brought out upon cooking the onions...

there is value in eating onion with foods high in fats
ex. Pizza with onion & peppers
ex. sausage pepper & onions
Put onion in soup, almost anything you cook - pot roast,
oven baked chicken
the onion (the pepper also) help in digesting the fats reducing the bad cholesterol
