    Don't be too quick to dismiss "old wives' tales." I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of truth in this.

    I've heard something similar, here's what I found:

    According to*the*folk remedy, if you come down with*a*cold or*the*flu, all you have to do is slice*a*red or white*onion*into rounds, place them on*the*bottoms of*your feet, and put on*a*pair of socks. Leave*the*socks on overnight as you sleep. In*the*morning, you'll wake up cured of*your*illness.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm all for home remedies but I prefer to keep it simple...

    No, you put onions on your belt.
