With over 20 years of experience in the profession, I recommend using green onions not only to enhance the flavor of dishes but also to have many health benefits. Containing many antioxidants such as flavonoids, green onions help protect cells and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Vitamin C in green onions boosts the immune system, while fiber aids digestion and prevents constipation. In addition, green onions help reduce bad cholesterol, improve heart health and control blood sugar. With anti-inflammatory properties, green onions also help reduce inflammation and protect overall health.
