C, potassium, and folic acid.
Onions ingredients are a plant pigment called quercetin. Quercetin
is a potent antioxidant; foods rich in antioxidants are believed to slow aging,
fight cataracts, and possibly lower the risk of many types of cancer.
Quercetin is found in tea and apples as well, but investigators at Wageningen

much more readily from onions than from those other foods.

a long, long period of time because you can just stimulate the immune system
so much and to continue to take it might result in some side effects.
