I keep my egg shells and have ground them down into a powder, Must have over 1.5kg's so far. One medium sized eggshell makes about one 1/2 of a teaspoon of powder, which yields about 750 - 800 mgs of elemental calcium plus other microelements, i.e. magnesium,boron, copper,iron,manganese,molybdenum,sulphur,silicon,zinc, etc. There are 27 elements in total. The composition of an eggshell is very similar to that of our bones and teeth.You can use any kind of eggs chicken, goose, duck, but best is organic or certified organic eggs from free range birds. 1/2 teaspoon equals approximately 400 mgs of elemental calcium.About 1/4-1/2 teaspoon each day is recomended
