Onions have also been shown to decrease cholesterol levels.

A study in 54 women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) found that consuming large amounts of raw red onions (4050 grams/day if overweight and 5060 grams/day if obese) for eight weeks reduced total and bad LDL cholesterol compared to a control group.
