Chinese medicine believes that the feet, and especially the soles, are one of the most important parts of the body affecting health. This is because they are nerve endings, also called meridians, connected to all internal organs. On the other hand, onion and garlic have strong antibacterial and perfusion effects.
Feet and onions
So when you combine the significant role of the soles with the properties of the onion, you get an ideal recipe for a cheap and simple detoxification.
Although not everyone believes in meridians and Chinese medicine, the fact is that everything is connected by the nervous system – and everyone believes that.
How it all works
There are approximately 7,000 neuronal endings (meridians) on the soles that go directly to the internal organs. These are very important endings that are often ignored because we wear shoes all day. And so these nerves are not stimulated in the proper way. That is, among other things, the reason why it is ideal to walk barefoot on the sand or over uneven terrain, for example on the grass .
Another excellent way to achieve stimulation of these nerve endings is by using an onion. If you want to cleanse your body, you don’t have to do anything complicated like sticking to a diet or visiting a sauna. Simply cut the onion into thick slices, place them on the soles of your feet and put on socks over them .
Of course, nobody expects you to walk around like that on the street. Do it only at home at night. During sleep the onion will then do all the work to cleanse your body for you.
Effects of onion on human health
It is widely known that onion cleans the skin and kills viruses and bacteria. Phosphoric acid, which is found in it, can work wonders in the bloodstream. By passing through the skin into the blood, this acid cleanses the blood and organs and at the same time along the way kills bacteria and other pathogens . For this purpose it is recommended to use organic onions, but ordinary ones will also do well.
Many experts also emphasize that the onion purifies not only the body but also the air around it. After all, for example, despite its unpleasant smell, it is often used in England to disinfect the air in rooms and also as a tool to prevent the transmission of infections.
