Despite the huge number of new developments in the field of pharmacology, many people prefer natural natural recipes for beauty and health. As a mineral supplement, eggshells are often used: the benefit of this product is invaluable when there is a lack of calcium in the body and in the treatment of various diseases associated with this problem.
Eggshell - good and bad
According to the results of studies 30 more years ago, the shell of chicken eggs is more than 93% composed of calcium, which is easily digested by the human digestive system. In addition, it contains such substances:
- phosphorus;
- potassium;
- sulfur;
- sodium;
- aluminum;
- magnesium;
- silicon;
- cystine;
- methionine;
- lysine;
- isoleucine.
Thus, the egg shell is a fully balanced complex of essential amino acids and trace elements for the normal functioning of the human body and calcium replenishment.
The only negative factor in the treatment of eggshells can be the presence on its surface of salmonella. Therefore, before use, the product is important either to be thoroughly cleaned and heat treated, or to take a preparation made from the eggshell eggs of your own domestic chickens.
Egg shell use for human
Everyone knows that calcium is the main constituent element of bones, teeth and nails. Therefore, eating ground egg shells helps in the therapy and prevention of the following diseases:

Useful healing properties of the egg shell are especially important for the female body.

In addition, the reception of this remedy will have a positive impact on future children, ensuring the normal development of the fetus.
