Because it cleanses and destroys germs, onion is beneficial to both the skin and the blood.
In addition, it aids in the treatment of a sluggish thyroid.
In an interview with a doctor in St. Petersburg, Dr. Igor Knjazkin explains natural treatment for thyroid disease. The recipe calls for a lot of onion, so you know it has to be good.
Before you go to bed, he says, chop a red onion in half and massage your neck with the onion halves. Circular motions are used to massage the thyroid gland. In the evening, this procedure is performed to allow the onion juice to flow freely from either side.
Before you go to bed, avoid washing your neck. Make sure to let the onion do its work overnight so its effects may be felt to their fullest. The thyroid gland is naturally stimulated by onion juice.
After the massage, put some onion slices in your socks and retire for the night.
The onion’s phosphoric acid enters your circulation and cleanses your blood. It also helps to remove dirt and germs from the skin.
Onion is said to be good for the following ailments, according to folk medicine:
- Cleansing the air
- Cleansing the blood
- Killing bacteria and other pathogens
