onion
Vegetables
Onions are not only tasty but very healthy as well. They act as disinfectant, besides having a positive effect on the metabolism of sugar and cholesterol levels. They contain several vitamins (Vitamin B, Vitamin C, pantothenic acid Vitamin B5), minerals (potassium, calcium, phosphorous), silicic acid, secondary plant substances (e.g. glucokinins) and trace elements (e.g. iron). However, onions lose most of their healthy nutrients on frying, boiling and roasting, hence they should not be overheated.
