Are onions good for weight loss?

Onions are a natural source of chromium, a nutrient that improves insulin efficiency and keeps blood sugar stable. This then helps to eliminate blood sugar crashes and subsequent snacking.

However don't believe the claims of some chromium manufacturers that chromium pills are a magic cure all. Studies with chromium and weight loss have produced mixed results.

Another way onions help with weight loss is that they may add to your overall sense of flavor in your meal and keep you from overeating.
