VERY INTERESTING! !
In 1919 when the flu killed 40
million people there was this Doctor that visited the
many farmers to see if he could help them combat the
flu. Many of the farmers and their family had
contracted it and many died.
The doctor came upon this one farmer and to his
surprise, everyone was very healthy. When the
doctor asked what the farmer was doing that was
different the wife replied that she had placed an
unpeeled onion in a dish in the rooms of the home,
(probably only two rooms back then). The
doctor couldn't believe it and asked if he could have one
of the onions and place it under the
microscope. She gave him one and when he did
this, he did find the flu virus in the onion.
It obviously absorbed the bacteria, therefore,
keeping the family healthy.
Now, I heard this story from my
hairdresser in AZ. She said that several years
ago many of her employees were coming down with the
flu and so were many of her customers. The
next year she placed several bowls with onions
around in her shop. To her surprise, none of
her staff got sick. It must work.. (And no,
she is not in the onion business.)
The moral of the story is, buy some onions and place
them in bowls around your home. If you work at
a desk, place one or two in your office or under
your desk or even on top somewhere. Try it and
see what happens. We did it last year
and we never got the flu.
If this helps you and your loved ones from getting sick, all
the better. If you do get the flu, it just
might be a mild case..
Whatever, what have you to
lose? Just a few bucks on
onions!!!!!! !!!!!!!!
Now there is a P. S. to this for I sent it to a friend in
Oregon who regularly contributes material to me on health
issues. She replied with this most interesting
experience about onions:
Weldon,thanks for the reminder.
I don't know about the farmers story...but, I do
know that I contacted pneumonia and needless to say I was
very ill...I came across an article that said to cut both
ends off an onion put one end on a fork and then place the
forked end into an empty jar...placing the jar next to the
sick patient at night. It said the onion would be black in
the morning from the germs...sure enough it happened just
like that...the onion was a mess and I began to feel
better.
Another thing I read in the
article was that onions and garlic placed around the room
saved many from the black plague years ago. They have
powerful antibacterial, antiseptic properties.
