👃 Does It Smell Like Onion?

Yes… a little. But surprisingly, it doesn’t taste like biting into a raw onion. The flavor is mild, slightly sweet, and even comforting — especially with honey and lemon. And the benefits? Totally worth it.

🧠 Why It Works

Onions are rich in:

• Quercetin – a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
• Sulfur compounds – which support detox and immune function
• Prebiotics – which help feed your gut’s good bacteria

So while we often toss onions into a pan and forget about them, they’re actually powerful healing foods when used the right way.
