It’s hard to find one food that has as much impact on a variety of health issues as onions! Onions are another low-calorie vegetable high in antioxidants and vitamin C, a nutrient involved in regulating immune health, collagen production, tissue repair and iron absorption.

And there’s more…onions are also rich in B vitamins, including folate (B9) and pyridoxine (B6) — which play key roles in metabolism, red blood cell production and nerve function.

Lastly, they’re a good source of potassium, a mineral in which many people are lacking. In fact, the average potassium intake of Americans is just over half the recommended daily value (DV) of 4,700 mg. Normal cellular function, fluid balance, nerve transmission, kidney function and muscle contraction all require potassium.
