Herbal Remedies - Lemon Egg Question

[Guest guest]

Well, heat usually destroys all the good stuff, so I would say yes.... Lemon egg is supposed to be taken straight... Just put it in the fridge and drink it straight. It will do the most good this way.

Question again, guys! I have made the lemon egg. I was wondering if it is o.k. to use in a hot beverage? Can I take it that way? I love my lemon in my herbal teas.

Hmmm, but calcium is a mineral, not a fruit or veggie with enzymes. Does that really apply? Oh, I guess heating would turn it from an organic mineral to an inorganic mineral, is that right?

 

Kellli trying to think...

Think Kelli,

remember the discussion on enzymes, and oatmeal, etc... you're changing the composition...

Suzi

PS... How do you classify lemon juice??? (Hint: fruit ... juice)

PPSS I don't think I'm wrong... but if I am , (ROFL) Doc will certainly correct me!!

No correction Suz, and Kelli did have the "heat" factor correct as well. ;o)

You can actually get a chemical reaction to many formulae simply by adding heat.

You never want to use egg shells from boiled eggs for example.

Not that you won't get some good out of it, but it's just not as effective.

Love,

Doc

I use a tablespoon and gently lift them out - as long as you don't poke them they should come out... The lemon juice dissolves the egg shell.. you have the thick membrane around the egg itself.. Heck, I've even poured most the juice out with the eggs still in the jar... just do it gently.

Depends on how much calcium you need (if you have osteo, etc) but once a day at least...daily requirements..etc.

I'm always reading about balancing calcium with magnesium. Is it ok to just take the lemon egg or should we be taking some form of magnesium as well?
