💡 If you see a broken eggshell in your omelette, don't try to get rid of it as soon as possible! Eating eggshells can help you increase your calcium intake.
💡 In the past decades, eggshell powder processed from hen eggs has been used as a natural calcium supplement.
💡Eggshells are roughly 40% calcium.
💡 One eggshell contains about 2.2 grams of calcium.
💡 Eggshell powder may have a positive effect on bone metabolism, especially for older women with osteoporosis, reducing pain, increasing mobility and bone density in postmenopausal women and women with a disease that causes weak bones.
💡 Half an eggshell may provide enough calcium to meet the daily requirements for adults, which is 1,000 mg per day.
💡Eggshells also contain small amounts of other minerals, including magnesium, selenium, strontium and fluoride and they are important for bone health.
💡 Some studies show that regular intake of eggshell membrane supplements may benefit your joints.
📖 Preparing eggshell powder at home is easy. After boiling and drying the shells, you can crush them with a pestle and mortar and mix the powder with water or add it to food.
