📏 How Much Onion Is Safe?
Raw: ¼–½ medium onion per day (if well-tolerated)
Cooked: Up to 1 medium onion daily
Listen to your body: If you feel bloating or heartburn, scale back.
The Bottom Line
Onions are a nutritional powerhouse—but like all potent foods, balance is key. For most people, they’re safe and beneficial. For those with sensitivities, simple adjustments (like cooking instead of eating raw) make all the difference.
So chop, sauté, or caramelize with confidence—but honor your body’s signals.
