Is onion allowed on the Tayyibat diet?

No

No. Dr. Al-Awadi excluded this food himself.

Onion, not allowed on the Tayyibat diet

Why onion is off the list

He named onion together with garlic, and the system's rice is cooked without either. It carries the same kind of sharp sulphur that makes garlic sting.

The detail

Named with garlic in his own prohibition. The system's rice is specified cooked without either. Sulphur compounds of the same family as allicin.

The rule behind the verdict

Too sharp for your gut

Did the doctor say this himself?
