Scientific Basis for Applying Onions to Feet
While putting onions on your feet may sound strange, there is a scientific reason behind it. Onions contain sulphur compounds such as allicin, which have inherent antibacterial and antiviral effects. The bottoms of our feet have about 7,000 nerve endings (reflex points) that are linked to numerous organs in the body. When applied to the foot, the qualities of onions may activate these nerve endings, facilitating detoxification, improving circulation, and boosting the immune system.
