Ingredients
- 4–5 clean eggshells (from organic eggs if possible)
- 2–3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or apple cider vinegar)
- 1 cup warm water
- Optional: 1 teaspoon honey for taste
Instructions
- Clean & Dry – Rinse the eggshells thoroughly under running water to remove any egg residue. Boil them for 5 minutes to sterilize. Allow to dry completely.
- Grind – Once dry, grind the shells into a very fine powder using a clean coffee grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Mix – In a glass, combine ½ teaspoon of the eggshell powder with the lemon juice (or vinegar). Let it sit for a few minutes; the acidic liquid will help release calcium.
- Add Water – Stir in warm water and honey if desired.
- Use – Drink a small amount (like a shot) once daily or add the powder to smoothies, oatmeal, or soups.
- Storage – Keep the remaining powdered shells in an airtight jar in a cool, dry place.
This is traditionally used in some cultures to increase dietary calcium, which may support bone and joint health over time. It’s not a substitute for medical care; anyone with health conditions should check with a healthcare provider before starting a new supplement.
