Guest guest Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Nature the below is from Chet Day's newsletter. http://www.nutritional-healing.com.au Has anyone tried this? Lianne ============================= This Week's Featured Article ============================= Calcium Supplement You Make at Home By Cathy Mundy You can make your own calcium supplement using a lemon and eggshells. The following recipe is from Ted Morter's book, Your Health, Your Choice: Lemon Egg 1. Place a whole, clean, uncooked egg into a clean, wide- mouth jar. 2. Cover the egg with freshly squeezed lemon. 3. Cover the jar loosely and place it in the refrigerator. 4. A few times a day, gently agitate the jar. 5. After 48 hours, when the bubbling has stopped, carefully remove the egg. 6. Take one-half teaspoon of this mixture each day as you simultaneously concentrate on re-building your calcium from other natural sources, particularly freshly extracted juices from dark green, leafy vegetables like kale. The citric acid from the lemon juice has combined with calcium from the egg shell to form calcium citrate. This is organic in nature and usable by the body. It retains its living quality. Be sure to check with your doctor or health advisor before switching from a prescription or over-the-counter calcium supplement to this home-made alternative.
