I will try your method saving all my eggshells in the freezer, etc. ❤️

The procedure from the video (for those who want a written recipe): Wash the eggshells thoroughly. Crack them and eat the insides. Save the shells and keep them in the freezer. When you have a gallon zip-lock bag full of eggshells, take them out and put them on a cookie sheet. Turn oven to 250 degrees (Fahrenheit). Cook for an hour. This leaves the membrane intact, ensures the egg shells are completely dried out, and kills any bacteria. Crunch them up in a big bowl, then put them in something like a Magic Bullet or Ninja food processor. Put on "pulverize" and let it run as long as it needs to to create a very fine eggshell powder. You can sprinkle it on food.

Washing the shells properly before freezing them is crucial

Great suggestion! 2 refinements that should be noted. First, do NOT use a blender to grind the shells, unless the blender uses a glass vessel! The shells will abrade plastic, and you will end up with that toxic plastic in your healthy supplement. Next, get a small strainer to catch the pieces that do not become powder. A warning: Ground egg shell is extremely abrasive. If you add it to food that you chew, you can feel it grinding away at the enamel of your teeth! Don't put it in anything you chew! If you mix it with drinks, it sinks so fast you can't get it down. You can add it to a very thick shake I suppose. I solved the problem by buying a capsule filling machine, and making my own eggshell capsules. Pro tip: line the cookie sheet with parchment paper. The little drips of egg that drop onto the cookie sheet harden like epoxy, and are very hard to get off without ruining the cookie sheet. The paper just gets tossed, leaving nothing but a rinse for clean up!

You were doing an absolutely phenomenal job until you said you were making capsules out of them because they have a very fine and hard powder making capsules out of them is a nightmare I have tried and I have made capsules of many other things and eggshell powder is the worst also I don’t consume capsules anymore because it’s processed and you don’t know what is in those capsules even if they are vegetarian. I also don’t use capsules because taking a teaspoon and putting it in your mouth and then swishing it down with water is by far the best solution for every supplement and every powder. Every morning I wake up I take two scoops of grass fed whey protein isolate two scoops of almond flour or pumpkin seed flour I alternate every few days between the two you don’t want to take them at the same time because some of them could have anti-nutrients that will prevent each other from absorbing. I also don’t brew coffee I just take a big tablespoon of my organic CBD coffee and half a teaspoon of Kratom and I feel absolutely incredible and I just gave myself an unbelievable amount of nutrients in about two minutes worth of scooping. I also eat half a pound of organic spinach every morning and every night I don’t blend it I just put it in my mouth and chew it down and it takes about 40 seconds of chewing. I wouldn’t recommend eggs in the morning because they make you tired I would recommend eggs about 2 1/2 hours before going to bed so that they can make you tired right before bed and fill your brain with nutrients so that you can get better sleep. I used to spend hours every day cooking and cleaning dishes now I spent a total of 20 minutes cooking and eating every day.

Yes! I eat the eggshells as well! I am aware of the value of nutrients of these. Also, if you have a cut in the skin, the delicate membrane inside of the egg can be used as a bandaid when dried. It will heal the wound and the added nutrients will help in the healing. Farmers used this as a go to, when living on the farm but since the norm as changed society has forgotten these tried and true methods. Thanks for all that you do! 🐓🥚♥️

Dr. Berry, in my household, haven’t thrown away a single egg shell in 10 years. However, unlike you, the baked and blitzed shells go into the soil just prior to planting. We grow all our vegetables. It’s also incorporated into our livestock feed.

I have been doing this for years. I put the shells on parchment paper and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees, making sure they are not burned. I let them cool and crunch them down and put in a coffee grinder and make a fine powder. I store in a glass jar in the pantry. I mix mine with my powdered collagen add it to walnut milk and a few drops of BioSil and some cinnamon. I blend in blender and drink. The doggies get a sprinkling on their homemade meals every day.

Appreciate you explaining just exactly what you do to prepare the shells for consumption from start to finish . Direct, concise and to the point, thank you KenDBerry!

He cleans them before using the insides. Saves the remaining shells in a ziplock bag in the freezer until he has enough to bake. Then bakes large amounts like a gallon bag worth at 250°f for 1 hour. Then grinds baked shells to a power. He consumes 1/2 tsp power, per day, plus sprinkles some on his pet’s foods (Dogs and Cats) too. PS: Also works well on plants to prevent deficiency diseases, especially for tomatoes and peppers.

I do! I soft boil eggs everyday. I just pop 1 whole egg shell in my mouth and chew it up.

This is great! I envision phasing out the Citracal that the doctor currently has me taking, and replacing that with eggshells. I am a forest gardener, implementing regenerative agriculture practices, some of which are based on Korean Natural Farming (KNF). One of the inputs is Water Soluble Calcium (WCA) made by mixing the roasted, crushed eggshells with Brown Rice Vinegar in a 1:10 ratio. You leave it to sit and react for 5 to 10 days. That is to provide nutrition for plants. Since you promote the use of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) for its health benefits, I wondered whether it makes sense to incorporate eggshells into the ACV, or whether the WCA might be good for human consumption along with a carnivore diet.

@@JYAN2852 when i eat rotisserie chicken, some bones are eatable and i would say even tasty and enjoyable with the brown inside

I will definitely be trying this! Thank you 😊

I’ve been doing this for years, but it ends up in my garden! I will start cooking some and blending into powder for myself.

Yes! On our farm we had a chicken farm as well as other animals. About 240 various birds. I always made powdered egg shells. Added in dog food and u can put them in a Veggie capsule and take the 1/4 tsp that way. Also add in the garden tomato soil 👌

Great idea about the veggie capsule--thanks for sharing it with us. :)

I’d definitely try that but I’d have to buy the appliance, and my diet doesn’t need them otherwise. But I’m glad to know how to salvage the nutrition, and your respect for the animals is exemplary Doctor.

You can use a cleaned out coffee grinder. Just smaller amounts at a time.

@@t-rozbenouameur5304 this only works well when the egg is ground finely from what ive read anyway.

Now that you’ve given us the why & how to, will definitely utilize the egg shells for all it’s benefits! Thanks!

Definitely plan on eating egg shells! Thanks for providing the "how to" for prepping them!!

I’ve never eaten eggshells before but I’m surely going to from now on. Thank you for this.

I have not (intentionally) eaten them but I plan on trying it now that I know it is good for me!

Great info!!!

I do plan to do this! So far I’ve prepared them for wild birds particularly prior to nesting for their own shell making. - Thanks Doc, your always helping me❣️

Yes, Dr. Berry, I will be trying eggshells! I just saw this on a video from an India(n) doctor and started to save some. He had patients that reversed osteoporosis! I have severe osteoporosis and have tried all the meds, infusions, injections, and shots I had to give myself daily for 2 years. Nothing worked and several gave me horrible reactions. When I fall, I break. He did not explain how to make them into powder, so I'm very glad you did. It all makes perfect sense. We were given everything on Earth we need. We just needed to discover how to use it. Thank you so very much!!!!!!!

Hope you’re doing better. Did it work for your osteoporosis?

Thank you Dr Berry! ALWAYS such timely and affirming info. I feed eggshells to my cats since I make their food myself very often and I don't have a heavy-duty meat grinder to crush bones. I save the shells in the freezer, then to use them, I boil a few minutes, strain and put them in the blender till crushed. Dr Berry, am I losing nutrients by boiling? ( It doesn't get to a fine powder, but the cats don't mind. They don't chew as thoroughly as I do. I will HUNT one tiny speck of shell if it gets in my own egg meal. Maybe I'll get a coffee grinder and have some myself) Then when the shells are crushed I add the parboiled chicken meat & water, tyrosine, 1 fish oil capsule and 1/4 tsp of salt & 1/4 tsp potassium (No Salt brand or a capsule) to about 2 pounds of chicken with skin & about 1/2 pound of cooked liver for fun. Actually for the added vitamins & flavor. Then freeze in small containers. They Love it and it helps my one kitty's sensitive (barfy) tummy. I add more water to it when I serve and they like that a lot. They'll lap up all the "'gravy" take a break, then come back and finish the rest. I think it's like when they hunt, they probably get all the blood first. I'm sure it's super nutritious.

And I also add a D3 capsule to the mix.

Yes! Going to try this! Thank you!

I am going to do this. Great tip thanks.

No. I have never eaten egg shells or the membrane BUT I certainly will do so now! I love the idea of making a powder and adding that to my shakes!

You can also feed these ground up eggshells back to your hens. Hens need calcium supplementation in one form or another in order to make strong egg shells. You can buy ground up oyster shells at the feed store, or you can recycle your egg shells back to the chicken feeder.

Going to try this! Seems like a great idea!

I definitely plan to try this!! Thanks for explaining how!

I was thing of this for calcium. I hadn’t done it because I was nervous. Now I will definitely try it

Amazing and mind-blowing. Thank you, Doctor. We have raised chickens for over 40 years in our backyard and we never knew the eggshells have so many health benefits. A quick question Dr. Berry, do the green-blue eggshells and the brown eggshells have additional health benefits over the white eggshells or do all have the same health benefits? We get all of those types here from the various chickens that we raise.

I'm no Dr, but given that the color comes from the bloom, I would guess all eggshells are equal.
