Yes absolutely right.

Eating onion causes desires, especially sexual arousals. Hence, it is recommended to avoid the same.

some historical facts: The Ancient Egyptians worshipped onions believing that its spherical shape and concentric rings symbolized eternal life. Onions were even used in Egyptian burials, as evidenced by onion traces being found in the eye sockets of Ramesses IV.

In ancient Greece, athletes ate large quantities of onion because it was believed that it would lighten the balance of blood. Roman gladiators were rubbed down with onion to firm up their muscles. In the Middle Ages, onions were such an important food that people would pay their rent with onions, and even give them as gifts. Doctors were known to prescribe onions to facilitate bowel movements and also to relieve headaches, coughs, snake bite and hair loss.
Onions may be especially beneficial for women, who are at increased risk for osteoporosis as they go through menopause, by destroying osteoclasts so that they do not break down bone.

Onion in combination with jaggery has been widely used as a traditional household remedy for sore throat in India.
