So, you know how there are always crazy old wives' tales that seem too good to be true, and don't seem to make sense logically, yet they still somehow work? Well, this is one of those things. People swear by it. Let me give you the lowdown on the ground-breaking onion and sock situation.

The bottom of your feet are said to be linked to your internal organs. Parts of the feet have a corresponding link to another part of your body.

Because we are often wearing shoes, those points on the feet are rarely stimulated, which means that the electrical circuits linking feet and body are often dormant.

You can open up these pathways and help to purify your internal organs by doing one simple thing while you sleep.

Onion and garlic are known to be powerful in fighting germs and bacteria when applied topically. One way to purify your organs while you sleep is to put a slice of onion in your sock while you sleep.

Here is how to do it:


Step 1: Cut an onion into a slice.

You're going to want to make sure that it is an organic onion so that you don't have pesticides on your feet the whole night. You'll also want the onion to be a flat slice.

Step 2: Place the onion in your socks on the flat part of your feet

As you sleep, the healing properties of the onion will be absorbed up into your feet, stimulating all of those points on your feet that are linked with internal organs.

The Benefits...

The benefits that are supposed to come with doing this are as follows:

1. Your blood will be purified. Phosphoric acid from the onions will be absorbed and will purify your blood.
2. Bacteria and germs will be killed.
3. Make your feet smell better (believe it or not) by pulling out the toxins and chemicals and purifying the air around.

Who knew that something so simple could be so beneficial for your health? It's a cheap and easy way to help your body.

Remember going to bed every night with those wire hair curlers....(pure torture)...and cold cream on my face...sleeping on my back. not moving or the cold cream would rub off....:giggle: Never got a good night's sleep.

Happy when they came out with the sponge hair curlers!.... (before the curling iron)....So when I got married, all that had to stop!....My husband looked at me as if I were crazy.

Never could understand how my sisters and friends were able to get any sleep at all with those godforsaken curlers in their hair. I never wore them as my hair is curly. I spent all my time trying to figure out how to straighten it, did wear the huge soup can size rollers, but not at night for sure. :lol:

I know, Caz, I really shouldn't whine about my curly hair, but,but, I'll just get it looking all cute the way I want it, with nice straight bangs, go outside and they frizz up in the damp and humidity. Then I'm all whiny, "I hate my hair".

I really do appreciate it though.....most of the time. :lol:
