It is well known that all “super foods” naturally contain higher levels of specific nutrients and compounds known for nourishing the body. The onion is no exception.

The onion, Allium cepa, is, on the surface, a humble brown, white or red, paper-thin skinned bulb: despite its plain looks, it has an intense flavor. Onions are part of the allium family of vegetables and herbs, which also includes chives, garlic, scallions and leeks. Their use as a food goes back 5000 years.

While raw onions provide you with many of the more common nutrients, they are a major source of polyphenols and flavonoids in particular, which are a very important subdivision of polyphenols. Onions are one of the best sources of a type of flavonoid called quercetin. Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant that may support a healthy inflammation response. Onions contain more polyphenols than garlic or leeks. Other foods like apples and tea are quality sources of quercetin but onions show to have a much higher absorption uptake into the body. This makes onions one of the more superior foods containing this compound. The flavonoids in onions like quercetin are not degraded by low heat cooking and when boiling like a soup this compound will simply transfer into the liquid. Eating raw onions is the most nourishing way, yet, raw or cooked, you should get a fairly healthy amount of the nourishing compounds found in this powerful little bulb.

The sulfur compounds in onions have been shown to support a variety of areas in cardiovascular health from supporting healthy lipid levels, and blood pressure levels to nourishing your blood vessels. Inulin, a water soluble dietary fiber and prebiotic found in onions may support intestinal health and its ability to heal ulcerations.

The quality of the starting material is an essential prerequisite,since it may affect all the subsequent phases. Hence GMPs are applied already from these early steps to guarantee the characteristics of the final product. At this stage,there are a number of measures we employ:

√ supplier inspection and qualification

√ area selection

√ control of:

– harvesting period and harvesting method

– drying conditions

– storage

√ botanical identification of the plant and part of the plant

√ quarantine of the biomass under monitored conditions

√ microbiological analysis

√ chemical analysis

√ control of contaminants, including:

– pesticides

– aflatoxins

– heavy metals

Only after all of these controls will the raw material be released for further processing or rejected due to non conformance with our strict requirements.
