Health Benefits of Onion Extract (Juice)


Fruit/vegetable extracts are quite popular here in Korea. But I'm not talking about freshly squeezed juices from a blender/juicer; that sort of thing is a luxury in this country, since the price of actual fruits and vegetables are ridiculously expensive. We buy extracts instead - it might sound like the same thing, but the process and tastes actually turn out completely different.

Some popular extract beverages are pear, pumpkin, grape, etc. A few weeks ago, a colleague and I purchased a box of onion extract because we heard it was good for weight loss. It was a spontaneous decision, but after doing a little bit of research I decided I was happy with my purchase.





This is how all the extracts are packaged; completely sealed to prevent oxidation. The nutritional facts are listed on the back: One packet is only 36 calories, which is very low and does not affect your diet by much.

How it's made: first, the onions are handpicked and harvested in Muan, Jeollado, where the onions are of world-class quality.


Then, the onions are all thoroughly washed and removed of dirt.


Next, the onions are placed in an extractor to be juiced. The temperature and timer is automatically set so all juices are of the exact same quality.


Finally, the juices are moved to a storage tank and boiled at 120 degrees Celsius. The pasteurized juice is then packaged and boxed.

Since the whole process is revealed online, I can trust what I drink. The taste is pretty good, too; I'm not a fan of raw onions because my eyes sting like crazy, but this has the pleasant savory taste of onion, without making me cry.

Health benefits of onion extract include:
  • Improves blood circulation, lowers cholesterol
  • Prevents heart disease
  • Promotes liver detoxification
  • Vitamins and minerals - good for healthy skin and anti-aging
  • Boosts libido
  • Good for weight loss (low in calories, high in vitamins and protein)
