Eggshell Powder (for calcium)Crack eggs and save shells. Wash shells out immediately after cracking eggs. Bake shells at 350 degrees F for about 10 minutes to remove the mineral oil coating and make them brittle enough to grind. Grind to a fine powder in a food processor or blender. Make sure there are no sharp, gritty pieces. One whole eggshell makes about a teaspoon of powder, which yields about 1,800 milligrams of calcium. |
