Boil eggshells and say goodbye to the …
If you’d like to take advantage of the natural benefits of eggshells, here are some safe, practical methods:
For a calcium boost:
Rinse eggshells thoroughly to remove residue.
Boil for 10 minutes to sterilize.
Dry completely (in sunlight or an oven).
Grind into a fine powder using a blender.
Store in a clean jar and use small amounts (½ teaspoon per day) in smoothies or soups.
For plants:
Boil crushed eggshells in water for 10–15 minutes.
Let the mixture cool, strain it, and use it to water your plants.
This provides calcium and helps balance soil acidity.
