Add lemon to your meal

Onions have amazing cooling properties

Onions might give you a bad breath, but they are really helpful in keeping your gut healthy. Add onion to your curries, dips, raitas, salads and chutneys to keep your gut cool. Red onions are very rich in quercetin which keeps allergies at bay. It also protects you from sunstroke.
