I would like to know what you think the best herbs to use for hashimoto's
Thank you so much, I've broken many bones. I pray this will strengthen my bones.
when i was a kid , my grand told us to eat the eggshells to when we got boiled eggs because it was good for us , growing, when she made egg cakes or used eggs in baking , she boiled the shells and crush them , and the powder she mixe in the pancakes or bread she baked . god bless
Good idea thanks for sharing
I wish we had all kept up with what our great grandmother's did. They worked hard but they seem to live longer. Their foods tasted better l know.
Experience is more than a degree. Just saying
Wouldn’t it be sandy
@@lORREIGN365 yes, it is, but you get used to it. If it’s ground real fine it’s not so obvious.
Thank you for talking about women being designed to stop producing estrogen and that we designed to go through menopause! We have been trained to believe that our bodies need hormone replacement therapy in order for us to feel good later in life and it's a lie. It is also true that the continuing to have estrogen in our bodies, after the point it's been meant to deal on it's own without it, does in fact lead to a very high cancer risk. If we put into our bodies what we ought to through our food, we CAN feel good, WITHOUT hormone replacement therapy! But we have to do our homework because we've never actually been taught how to take care of ourselves. Thank you for your videos! You are a wealth of information! I also really enjoy your this - and - that videos! Always a pleasure! God's mighty blessings to you and Mr Rain!
This is such a great comment, thank you Brenda!!
@Rose Treiger Just now seeing this comment, maybe SOME doctors don't recommend it, but sadly, many today still do. Be grateful you have the type of doctor you do, they are rare around here.
Hi rain country!
@@AL-ru3nk she said she's in her 50's, calm down
Sorry you had to deal with that, we never know what others go thru🕊
I found your comment of value until you claimed it was a high cancer risk when you make that claim show me the data. I've had lengthy talks with naturopaths and Physicians and I would like you to show me that data because they don't agree with what you're saying
Hi Heidi, Thank you so much for this wonderful overview of the benefits of eggshells. I have thrown them into my bone broth when making it and I have also used them in my garden. I think this is a great idea that you have of grinding them and making a supplement along with magnesium!! Magnesium has been a life saver for me!! Also, I recently read that you can put egg shells in vinegar and let them soak for a few days until the shells are soft. Once this happens, you can soak a rag in the vinegar egg shell liquid and then use the rag to put on your body - like knees - where you may have aches and pains. This was so fascinating to me. Also - on your topic of eating....My husband and I try to eat our main meal at lunch too and then something small in the evening...maybe just bone broth for me. (My husband works at home so it is easier to eat lunch together.) Doing this has helped me tremendously. I cured myself of GERD by eating earlier (and the bone broth helped tremendously) and this mini fasting is the only thing that has helped me finally lose weight - and I am in my early 60s!!! I have lost 30 pounds so far (still have more to go, but this is a great success.) I wanted to share this for any of your viewers who are in their 60s and struggling with weight loss. I love the way you said you are hardcore...LOL!!...me too!! My husband gets a kick out of me. When he heard your video playing, he said...”Wow!!...that lady could be your best friend!” Yes, Indeed!! 😀 Thanks for all the info that you share. Love, Mary ❤️😘❤️
Mary congratulations, I am 60, thank you for your info, it is so difficult to do weight loss after menopause
Thanks, Mary; good ideas and very encouraging! I'm now in mid-60's and trying to lose weight. I started taking eggshell powder due to Heidi's mineral video, and I recently got an Instant Pot and will start making bone broth. I guess we're all kindred spirits. :)
TennesseeGirl - So true!!! I tried everything and was really struggling. Plus I had terrible indigestion. A friend of mine suggested intermittent fasting by making my main meal in the middle of the day. And then not eating again until 14 hours passed. If I am hungry, I have bone broth in the evening or herb tea. In the morning, I have coffee with raw cream and a light breakfast. It has taken me awhile but it has been a godsend. I have more to lose but this is much easier to follow than any strict diet. I am off one of my blood pressure meds and eventually should be able to get off the other. I also wanted to mention that I make sure to walk a minimum of 10,000 steps per day. (I wear an old fashioned pedometer.) And I also do all my own house cleaning and gardening. Hope this helps!! ❤️😘❤️
Mary - another way to keep track of steps is with rangerbeads. It's an older form of tracking, too. It doesn't require batteries. Just you counting to 10 in its easiest form .
Edie Boudreau - Thank you SO much for sharing this. I had heard about Ranger Beads from someone else but was not familiar with them. Now I am going to learn how to make them!! ❤️😘❤️
Thank you Heidi! 5 yrs after you posted this video, you are still helping us middle aged ladies.
Hi Heidi, my late wife took hormone estrogen therapy and later was diagnosed with Uterine Cancer! After that she lost her battle with cancer. I just happened upon this youtube by accident searching for egg shell benefits . Very interesting the advantages of eating egg shells. I boiled some, ground them up, added some honey and a squeezed lemon. I looked at the results and had second thoughts about eating those crunchy little pieces that we all come across when we fry or boil an egg and crunch on pieces left!! So, after watching your video I see the benefits of eating the egg shells for the Magnesium and calcium. I have also heard that is supposed to address ED. All interesting stuff provided by "Mother Nature" and we tend to throw away. I won't be throwing away anymore egg shells!! Thanks, David
Great information, as usual!! I've been considering the fact I feel my family has been deficient in magnesium recently. I remember a long time ago studying nutrition for my kids, and one thing they mentioned was that children who are deficient in magnesium can be prone to emotional breakdowns (tantrums). I started supplementing my son's diet and noticed a huge change in his behavior.
That is great, thank you for sharing that :D
Thank u very much 4 u r good advise. I will try it may God bless it for me. Coz am suffering from my joint of my body.
(OMG) OH MY GOODNESS!!!
YOU JUST SAID THE SAME THING MY DOCTOR TOLD ME TODAY THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
I MAKE THE CAPSULES AND LEARN HOW FROM YOUR VIDEOS. BUT I ONLY TAKE ONE PILL PER DAY. THANK YOU BECAUSE I WAS THINKING HE COULDN'T BE TELLING ME THE TRUTH BECAUSE I WAS TAKING PILLS FOR THAT..
NOW I UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON. I NEED TO TAKE MORE YOU JUST CLARIFY THINGS FOR ME.
I BELIEVE GOD PUT PEOPLE IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME.
O wow, your doctor actually recommended egg shells or at least taking magnesium and calcium? If so, that is amazing! Most doctors do not recommend anything but their big pharma drugs!
🙏🙏true ❤y
I add eggshells/ powder to smoothies they blend very well. I’ve also read the membrane in the eggshells helps with joint pain as well. Was told I had osteoporosis 7 years ago. I refused the meds, ( totally ticking off the doctor) started research, and discovered that weight bearing exercise and magnesium was the ticket! On my next DEXA scan, the numbers had actually improved.
Bone is constantly cycling. Like hair or fingernails, bones are constantly sloughing off old and gaining new in an otherwise healthy person.The meds actually cause brittleness in bones, which in turn makes one more vulnerable to breaks.
Thank you I'm so glad I saw this comment I was recently diagnosed with osteoporosis myself at age 39, I also don't want to take the meds I want to get my bones healthy naturally I know why I have it at this age from years of under eating over exercising starving my body of nutrients, in my early twenties I was eating 500 calories a day even though I slowly over time increase my calorie intake I never went over 2000 calories and that was a big big mistake because I've always been very active and active people should eat 2,500 to 3,000 calories and now my poor bones need me to do right by them and the rest of my body because I also lost muscle, though I don't know if I can bake my egg shells because I don't know how to use my oven and I'm not sure if it works I wonder if I can bake them in the microwave or just boil them and let them dry and use a coffee grinder along with increasing my calorie intake taking supplements making sure I eat enough and get my bones healthy the natural way ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@daysoftheboo you
can dry them in the sun.
Do NOT use microwave for them as microwaving anything basically kills
nutritive value of most foods. Do some research on natural bone
strengthening.
Weight bearing exercise is a tremendous help. Walking is a great start.🙂
@@7watertiger oh good I can definitely sun-dry them I could even let them air dry overnight yes luckily I love exercising I've always exercised it's just that I made the mistake of over exercising and under eating for all these years but now when I exercise I'm focusing on strengthening my muscles and now strengthening my bones and making sure I take in enough calories it's been difficult but I'm determined to get my bones healthy again naturally, it's not easy and I do have moments where I feel very scared especially when I hear the horrible stories of fractures but I'm always motivated and I'm not giving up on my health and body ♥️🙏🏻♥️
Amazing!
I was planning to add to my smoothies, too.
I watched your egg dehydration video 3-4 times in the past two days (the powdered eggs are in my storage area now) and after hearing you talk about the shells I had to watch this video (the other one is next). "Maybe eggshells won't work for you, and maybe you're glad" - that made me laugh out loud!🤣I had very few issues with menopause, probably because it was around that time I was diagnosed with cancer (caught early, removed with surgery, no further treatment - praise God, because then I didn't have to do battle with the medical community - since I would not have been willing to go through chemical or radiation poisoning to make them happy). I started seeing a naturopath, and while I'm sure the supplements helped (they were also VERY expensive, and I don't like taking 20-25 capsules & 3-5 tinctures a day, every day, for four years) what really made a difference is when I started craving salads - I ate a salad every evening, filled an 11" dinner plate stacked 2" deep with greens, with farm fresh eggs & radishes & carrots & cashews & capers & leeks & cheese & black olives, for a few weeks and felt wonderful! Then I skipped for about two days, at the same time stress was high & I ate candy - BOOM! Hot flashes - went back to my salads, all was well. I am intrigued by Mary's Nest's comment about putting eggshell-vinegar soaked cloth on painful points. May try that...eating eggshells, not so much 🙂...I have to eat anyway, may as well get what I need from the foods I eat whenever I can. I truly cannot thank you enough for all the information you share - you've not only educated me, you've inspired me as no other has - and I am benefitting from your selflessness. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I'm glad you talked about calcium And magnesium. So important to take them together! I find that when my magnesium is down, yes, I don't sleep well and my muscles, especially my legs, feel weak to heavy and achey and, in the extreme, they cramp.
There's enough shells in the compost. The next ones are for me! 😄
Do not take at same time tho
Take calcium after breakfast
Take magnesium at night
They block each other’s absorption
Thank you Heidi!! I have so much trouble staying asleep at night...will start eating my chicken egg shells.... i usually grind them up and feed them back to the chickens or put them in my garden soil. Now I will try it for me.
Kerri Hatz lol that’s what I use to do to for my chickens lol to funny
We feed them to our worms lol
@@valerieelfering692
Absolutely! The little guys need them so they can digest their food. YUM!
Same!
great video Heidi! For years I took hormone replacements. 2 yrs ago I stopped cold turkey. With NO exercise, I lost 40 lbs!! The best degree is life lessons.
Yep. Menopause does affect the teeth and you MUST up your calcium and magnesium. ALWAYS take these two together as they help one another.
Don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but vit k2 is also needed to help get the calcium into bones and teeth instead of arteries. And at the same time, vit d is also needed to help with absorption.
Cod liver oil
Centrifuged butter oil
VitA, D AND K
Plus Omega-3s
Hi Heidi. I have osteosporosis. Six months ago I started taking 'ground/powdered ' organic egg shells, 1/2 tsp, morning and afternoon. Each 1/2 teaspoon is about 600mg. With it I take magnesium citrate, 250mg, powdered. Boron is also an excellent trace mineral to help us absorb the calcium and magnesium. We only need about 3mg of boron. So I eat about 3 tsp. of organic raisins at the same time. I will have another bone density test in November. I hope it will have reversed my osteosporosis. I eat a very healthy diet so I am getting most of my vitamins and minerals from FOOD and herbs. I love your channel and energy. Take care.
LARK'S GARDENS any update on your bone density results?
How did it go?
It might be not enough Vit D according new research
Larks garden, please let me know the results. I am on beef bone broth and powdered college. I hope my osteo is improved. I had a test done 15 years ago. Also, I would like to know why I can not see the test results my self ! Haven't had a test since but keep working to improve. Thanks
What happen on your test results?
Hi Heidi - I just read through the comments and my questioned was answered about the eggshells!! Thank you!!😘
so many videos, SO much information, I end up watching one video several times, just to make sure I haven't missed anything,
Very cool! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this important info. I do remember my mother sharing this info with me from a very young age. She had cancer at age 28 during a pregnancy and then died 14 yrs ago at age 57. Although her body was already poisoned, she became an advocate (and a wealth of knowledge) on natural and herbal health. I've strayed off that way and am trying to find my way back. When you speak of your knowledge, it reminds me of her. Thank you. I went through a full hysterectomy about 8-10 yrs ago and my health has declined a great deal since then. I refused hormone therapy. Had to take a medical retirement from work and I am trying to find a healthier path to finish living my life. So please keep sharing yoyr wealth of knowledge. 😀🐔
Debbie, I am sorry for what you have had to go through and for the loss of your mom. Thank you so much for sharing this with me and for your encouragement!
I only source almonds from the middle East. Almonds in California are full of pesticides and herbicides and require a lot of water in a state that has to import water. Reading The Beekeepers Lament was eye-opening, also on YT as an audiobook.
Mom said she took calcium supplements when she was experiencing hot flashes which reduced them. I never really had much problem with that.
Where do you order your almonds from?
Thank you for sharing and this will be a help for me especially since i am a woman,. I want to thank Mary (Mary's Nest) who introduced me to Rain Country.Thanks again. Also your Bible verses are a great blessing and God bless you. Thank you.
Heidi that is wonderful I've been making my egg shells powder for a few years now. I have a jar and a half left I made some for my daughter-in-law last year. I haven't seen anyone that does, so I'm amazed and happy to see that other people are doing this, congratulations on your site and I'm so glad I come across it. I've always loved nature I've always work with herbs all my life I've taken care of myself with herbs and tinctures. Look forward to your next video.
This is great information. For those that are prone to kidney stones such as myself,be sure to use magnesium, zinc and k2 with your calcium. The k2 helps put the calcium into your bones instead of your arteries and kidneys.
Correct. Vitamin D/D3 captures the calcium and the K2 then ( as you said) directs it to the bones where it belongs.
Dr KenDBerry MD on TH-cam has great lessons for kidney liver and heart
Learned about egg shells from him so found this video here next
Thank you Heidi, so blessed by all your videos!
I watched your thyroid video, and encouraged to continue studying the ways to stay away from pharmacy junk. Many thanks for sharing tour experience.
Hello, I tried to look at her videos and can't find it, do you still have it and can you share it please? Thank you, Linda
this is great timeless info! here it is 5 years later watching this very very very relevant info! THANK YOU!
I did organic eggs and was adding it to my Kefir drink in the morning and when I had my blood work done for my RA meds, my calcium was high. We will see next time when I have my blood work in about two months. I was told to stop taking calcium and go to my primary Doctor to have it checked. I did and he was not concerned about the levels, ordered more blood work and when I get back from Tennessee I’ll have it done. I’m really not worried about it. Love your info and it’s natural also, thank you Heidi 💚☘️
The other thing about the egg shells is making sure to leave the membrane in when washing them out ( I only clean them up with water and allow to air dry) the membrane is good for joint health so I would think it would be very helpful with RA
@Susie Bosh
I have a 2nd hand (is there anything other than that!) blender that I use exclusively for egg shells. Then I store them in peanut butter jars that seal.
Works well for me.
During menopause, I read a great book about magnesium’s benefits. It also brought out that more calcium than magnesium is incorrect. We need more magnesium than calcium. I am so grateful I read this book. I finished menopause at 52 and I am 65 now. I supplement with magnesium but not calcium. My bones and teeth are good and strong. My blood test results are good.
What is the name of the book??
@@Summer-bo9rw Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of the book and I no longer have it.
This information is great. I have been buying farm fresh eggs for a while now and have also bought a coffee grinder so all I need are the gel caps. There is another amazing benefit from eating the shells is the membrane that is attached inside. It has been marketed as natural eggshell membrane and first hand experience for me and two of my dogs was it greatly relieved the pain of our arthritic hips. When I ran out of the bought supplement, I just peeled the membrane from the shells for me and hand grind the whole shells for my dogs and add it to their food.
Lori: You can get it at health food stores in my area, but it’s much cheaper to order them from the Costco pharmacist. You get a larger container for less money.
It's a few months since I started eating eggshells, and I'm so grateful to you. I got to a point where most foods made my teeth hurt, and i'd never had sensitive teeth before perimenopause. Now my teeth are fine!! No more having to shut my mouth when i cycle since the wind made my teeth hurt!
How do you take it? Chew it with food or add to smoothie etc. Do u take other supplements with it?
Watching from Ireland, so glad I found your channel, I’ve turned 50 and feel sluggish, can’t sleep at the appropriate times, little panic attacks, quack suggesting I take HRT and I’m dubious about it, am going to try these foods, I’m also using my spare time to go through all your videos to take notes and learn, thank you so much for being here 🫶🏻
Wow, the information in this video has just been a complete revelation to me! This makes perfect sense, and now I understand why I haven't been sleeping well and why I have had awful 'brain fog' during the menopause! Thanks Heidi 😊
I do hope this helps you like it has me! :D
I just love your wisdom and appreciate you sis!
Moringa fresh has 4 times the amount of calcium than mild, while dried it has 17 times the amount! The dried Moringa leaves are high in Vitamin A, Potassium, Iron and protein as well. Just FYI, good stuff!
🙏🙏is true moringa is the best ❤👍
Does it have magnesium?
@@2cut32handle it sure does!
BLESS YOU!🙌🏼 I am 53 and miserable with hot flashes and not sleeping well at all. I have chickens and have NO problem eating egg shells! So excited!!
Did you try it and get some relief? I'm 50 and haven't really hit menopause yet, besides 2 hot flashes during sleep about a year ago lol .. we have 20 chickens so I'll be trying this..
@@adevore1971 Actually, yes, and it has made a significant difference!
@@prayingitup3297 Great to know..thanx!
@@adevore1971 You betcha!
When I stop the sugar hot flashes are mild.
Thank you for speaking up about your views regarding many things, especially the pharmaceutical industry. I have never heard anyone speak my personal thoughts about this to the degree you do. Most people will respond with a "rolling of the eyes" attitude. I am concerned about health and eating healthy foods... moreover I am concerned with preventing and treating myself for health issues in a natural way. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Blessings to you and Patrick.
Thank you Nancy! Yes, I know the eye roll, I have many that even get angry with me because of my views as they are so steeped in their belief that big pharma is a god of sorts and can save them...*sigh*
Heidi, I would like to get your views on thyroid medication in a particular situation. I fought with doctors over the hormone replacement until the only answer they had to the "necessity " of this medication was to provide needed calcium "at my age"! (By the way I stopped) I am still on thyroid medication since 1974. I have wanted to quit for years now. Naturally doctors tell me I cannot. That my thyroid will no longer function after so many years. I don't trust that answer any more than the hormone argument. How long were you and Mr. Rain on thyroid meds before you stopped? Yes, I have watched that video but you did not mention how long you had been taking meds. PS... I am ordering some things to make wine from your Amazon link. 😉
I have several videos out, not sure if you have seen them all but we were on medications for 15 years each and have been off for almost 7 years now, I am pretty sure it was spring of 2012 that we went off of them.
You give me hope and courage to take control of my health and my life. At almost 70, I second guess my own opinion sometimes. My husband and I retired in northern California and moved to a small farm in Southwestern Missouri a year ago. Only wish I had done this 15 years ago! Work is harder at my age but i tell myself it's great exercise, which is a health benefit too. Again thank you for what you do and for taking the time to answer my questions. ❤
@@RainCountryHomestead and now look at how many ppl worship big pharma and the beast system!! New sub to your channel.. much respect!!
@Rain
I never thought about using egg shells to get calcium and magnesium. That is SO cool...
I used eggshells in homemade dog food for calcium. At about 8 weeks old he had to go on a ridiculously expensive prescription diet for the rest of his life so I made his food a lot of times. Rice, oil, boiled eggs and eggshells. It worked.
Thank you so much for sharing this ❤
Where did you find your recipe?
Love this video Heidi.. I was injured and had to get a check up..long story short the Doctor was speechless finding-out I hadn’t had any symptoms with menopause or any after moisture issues. I am however a high raw certified organic non-gmo vegetable and fruit consumer as well as juicing daily for decades now. I am in my 61st year. I am here to say I agree with your findings. 💕👍🏼
Thank you for sharing that Laura!
What struck me was the part about hormone replacement. I am now nearly two years post menopause and when I was going through it I firmly felt that women's bodies are designed to eventually reduce in estrogen. Sure, hot flashes were tough, but it is the natural way our bodies are meant to go.
And I have been hearing that the hot flashes can also be the way the body is flushing out toxins during this time of change.
My good friend, used to say liver too congested.taking antioxidants like Vit E, evening promise oil, wild yam helps the high/ low swings till extra estrogen flushes thru liver. Then reduce medications and apply detox foot patches// foot massage (reflexology) helps clear liver too.many benefits of seaweed added to diet or greens diet (fast) for 3 days may be only way to relief.helped me.
My wholistic doctor told me flashes are an indication of weak liver and adrenals. Once I supplemented to support the liver and adrenals, my flushes went away!
Such wonderful information! Thank you! I’m only 45 and have started menopause. I’ve also noticed some darkening of my teeth. I’m gonna start saving my chicken eggs.
I made the capsules of egg shells! 🎉 started taking them a few days ago so excited. I Have bad brain fog and all the menopause fun stuff going on too 🙄 thank you for this incredible information Heidi 🥰
When i am off grid, I need to find ways to get natural vitamins & minerals.....thank you for this, I've already started grinding egg shells down and placing in my veggie garden.
I had to come find you video on this again before I started ingesting myself....and convince family to take also.
I love you so much you’re a light heaven sent. I really appreciate you ❤️ GOD bless
Vitamins D3, K2, k4, K7 also helpful for Calcium transport. Helps in preventing Ca from ionizing and sticking to artery walls.
Oh wow! I think my husband is low in magnesium. He has such a hard time staying asleep and therefore doesn't get enough REM sleep, perhaps not enough deep sleep. He experiences severe brain fog daily. And now I am so thankful that I make our own bread...sourdough whole grain bread with several different kinds of seeds: whole and ground flax seed, poppy seeds, sunflower seeds, chopped up pumpkin seeds, chia and black sesame seeds. In the morning, I often have two slices of this bread toasted and spread with fresh avocado. I knew I was doing something good for myself, but didn't know why it was so good for me. Thank you for this information!
I am 61, have been free from menstruation for 10 years (yipee, the best thing that ever happened to me was menopause). Have never had a hot flash (don't hate me). I do get brain fog. I love your egg shell info.
Yeah, while hot flashes are common for many, not everyone has to deal with them. Mine are currently few and far between and really not bad when I do get them
So very true about the estrogen!! I started seeing a homeopathic doctor for my thyroid and when she found out about my hystorectomy she asked if I was on hormobe replacement. At that time I wasn't. The doctor who completed my surgery put me on an estrogen pill and I was a raving lunatic on it. I was so very MEAN!! 6 months later I quit taking it and was myself again. The doctor for my thyroid said woman that was the best thing I could have done and it would have created so many other issues! Thank God I listened to my own body and instinct!!
Thank you for sharing, I hope more people that need to read/hear true accounts of others when it comes to such issues take the time to read these and realize they need to take charge of their own health and not trust their doctors!
Rain Country totally agree on that lol drs keep you sick that’s how they make their money lololo
Thank you so much for the wonderful information on the eggshell thing about teeth. I've just had a recent extraction and anything that can save my remaining teeth I want to do. Your a great teacher and the bane of big pharma. Lots of love to you and yours.
Thank you Jennifer!
This is awesome! Intuitively I must have know years ago when I started menopause that my body needed those things. I drank a lot of soy milk at the time because I gave up dairy. It was fortified with calcium and probably magnesium as well. I did eat a lot of beans too. I may have experienced 2 or 3 hot flashes total and they were very brief. One of them may have even been a reaction to the peanut butter and wine I had at the same time. Who knows. But yes, our bodies do things for a reason like you said, Heidi. They stop producing things that are taking energy away from more important functions necessary at that point in life. Thank you for sharing!
I enjoy your videos every day. I'm always learning something new, and you have such kindness about you. Thank you for all you do to educate and inform us all. Blessings ❤️
Great video. Thank you. You are right. Our bodies
are wonderfully made.
You are truly amazing...thank you for the invaluable information, I am going to start grinding my own egg shells powder this week! I never cease to learn in your channel I am so glad that Mary guided me here...May the Lord bless you and yours.
Thank you Nicole
I just ordered your beautiful Mortar and Pestle . I live in Longciew, WA. Love watching your channel
Thank you Susan! I will get that out to you tomorrow :D
I lived in Onalaska Washington for several years back in the 90s.
My grandfather had a beautiful place there with 65 acres of second-generation Douglas fir trees and a house and barn that I was supposed to get after he passed away.
My mother in Wyoming stole all of it from me.
It was a beautiful place.
Ground eggshells are also good for plant soil amendments. I use them in my aloe vera soil and they are huge.
Yes, I have used them in my garden and thought I mentioned that here but maybe that was in a different video
Be careful on some of the green leaves though. Spinach for example, has a lot of oxalic acid. High oxalate vegetables can interfere with the absorption of calcium. I think the same might be true of Swiss chard. Not sure about beet leaves but I do know that beet leaves are very high in magnesium.
Good point, thank you!
Mary Kochan: Goutweed is pretty tasty, and might be worth checking out. If you’ve got a pain in your joints, so it might not be a bad way to go.
Your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. God bless 🙏😊
Thank you so much for this video! I agree that pharmaceutical companies would rather sell you drugs than searching for a natural solution. My sister has liver cysts and I told her about using dandelion but no, no... she has total trust in her doctor..
My experience is going to the doctor with a stomach ache he never asks me what I ate .. instead prescribed me pills! Which I don’t buy!
Your video comes right on point as I am 54 and my teeth are chipping on the inside..so instead of putting my eggshells in my garden I will definitely grind them. I always have eggshells in the oven to bake and dry..
Another thing is cholesterol. Whenever I have my blood drawn (one every so often) he tells me my cholesterol is too high. The thing is with cholesterol it’s a “moment take”..as a picture ...
if the night before you had steak and fries your cholesterol will be higher than if you had a salad. It’s all made for you to buy expensive drugs. I asked that question to a doctor working at a pharmaceutical company and that was the answer to my question. No need to say I didn’t get the pills prescribed but I watched my intake more.
I love your channel and a big believer in nature.
Thank you 🙏🏾 you look and are amazing!!!! Sending you light and blessings and some flowers 💐 🌸🌻
Great video Heidi. So much important information to share with others is so beneficial. Also, you look great so all the extra care you give yourself is showing well on you!
Thanks Janice :D
I enjoy making tinctures and supplements for myself, my husband, and my aging dogs. Thank you for so much for the eggshell lesson. I'm oing to dry some to powder for capsules right NOW! Yay!

My Chew-WOW-WOW (aka Chihuahua) is almost 14. I recently began giving her bone broth every day. She LOVES it mixed in with her dry food and her health is improving. Of course she also LOVES her vegetables and fruits. Did I mention peanut butter? ;)
Might you have some suggestions for her?
Thanks so much in advance.
My red wigglers get a daily supply of powdered eggshells. I hadn't thought before about giving them to my Chi. I think I'll try that, too.
Thank you so much!!! I've used for my garden but didn't think to she for myself despite my intuition telling me to look into that.... it's likje the AI wanted me to find your video...God bless!!!❤❤❤🥀
I love the idea of using egg shells for our health. What a cool idea. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for everything you do, your words are real.
Happy Easter and God bless you and your family 🙏🐇🐣🐇🐣🇨🇦❤🇺🇸
I just want to thank you for million times. You are such an amazing lady ! You are a true doctor!

You are the best you are very amazing everything you have said is absolutely the true. Keep up up with everything you are doing is best for yourself.
I'm mid thirties myself...
I appreciate your teaching me this stuff now, so I dont worry later♡♡♡
I love how you share such an important content. We & i needed to heat this, Good on you!!! I am going to implement the hair formula and the egg shells..... I THAAANN+K YOU!!! Bless You .
Great info here. Especially for people with thyroid issues. My left was removed many years ago. My right works fine, but, I have to be mindful of making sure I get enough absorbable calcium. Thank you. 😁👍🏻
**side not; No, your not a doctor, but, you do a lot of research. I do too. One of the things I like about you is that you do watch who is putting out the information. I do too. It's not just big pharm that I watch out for. I also watch out for product companies. Even with naturals. If the information is funded by anybody selling a product, I take it with a grain of salt. I search for truly independent studies. Or, my group, does one ourselves. Thank you for all you do and teach.
Amen God is good all the time. Thank you.
i love figs swiss chard and spinach almonds high in both mag and cal
Talking about menopause, I had been vegetarian my whole life, due to not wanting to participate in the big agra way of treating animals, the slaughter houses are horrific, and so I haven't eaten meat since. I haven't gone through any hot flashes etc, did experience mood swings, but it was more depression due to a vitamin D deficiency. My point is, I'm finding that possibly eating too much chemical injected meats and of course all the plastic chemicals in our bodies maybe causing longer menopause on women, I read an old book 1890s when women did get menopause but it only lasted a few months, today it lasts years from my research, not experience, since I didn't seem to go through what they call menopause, other than depression and a littledryness. Thank you for all you do😁 God bless!!!!
Yes, the modern conventional way of raising and slaughtering animals is horrible. That is why that even though I have not been vegetarian or vegan in many years, I only go for wild caught or non conventionally raised meats.
Wow just found your videos thank soo very much for sharing and you explain things so we can understand it great videos subbed now lol oh I only eat one meal a day to just me , plus I do a lot of fasting 24 s and48s .
Thank you Mrs. Rain Country
I LOVE your channel. Thank you so much for sharing🇺🇸
Thank you Carolyn!
Thank you so much. This helped so much. I am going through menopause and the hot flashes are every half hour and horrible. I have a lot of health issues I’m trying to find ways to help myself without medicine that I had a bad reaction to. Also I am so happy to say I’ve received my seed order from you. Thank you so much again!💗
Eggcelent info. All kidding aside, thank you for sharing the all natural options. Your wisdom is greatly appreciated by many.
Thank you!
Thanks so much for talking about calcium + magnesium. Now I'll add cashews of brazil nuts to my sesame seed smoothie. God bless you for all the information you bring us.
This video is exactly what I was looking for and what I needed…
I am going to try the things that you suggested …
I have absolutely no problem eating egg shells LOL …
I was raised on a farm so I’m all good with that issue and I will try all the other stuff that you suggested ,thank you so much for being there for all of us females…
I do everything naturally except for taking the estrogen cream because I did not know what to do in its place ,and now I know …
so I will try everything you said and in a couple of weeks I will know very easily if I need to stop using the estrogen cream…
Thank you thank you thank you you’re a blessing…
Blessed Be
You are absolutely one of the best, what a gift!!! Thank you a million times over , you've been a blessing to me!!
Thank you Gloria!
Eggsellent Video! Ha. Really a great video! I share your feelings on all that you discussed although i havent tried egg shells yet, im going to tomorrow. I bet they could be easily hidden in a smoothie for those that couldnt take them straight up. Im gonna try them both ways. Thank You Sooo Much! God Bless!
Haha! Thank you Jennifer :D
I bet it wouldn't be hard to grind them in a coffee grinder to a powder consistency and use it in many capacities.

I have a second hand (is there any other kind?) blender that I use exclusively for egg shells. I make a fine powder of them for my worms.
Wow i taught i could talk/text long😁but at last have come across some long talking/texting friends 😁 yea we just have to say whats on our minds and sometimes its alot of writing these are some of the longest i have see. Great advice thanks alot. Have a great day you all.
Great info! I love that you just eat the whole shell! Awesome! You go girl!💪😊👍
Heidi, i appreciate you sharing such great wisdom with us. I cant get enough of your channel.
Thank you for this, these kind of comments keep me encouraged and motivated to keep plugging along :)
Heidi,
Very good information! Thank you so much for sharing what you do as well.
Thank you Wendy :D
Thank you, I really needed this video.
Thank you, very useful info for everyone
Excellent video, Heidi! I so agree...with everything. And l learnt a few new things, too. Thankyou! God bless. ❤
You are a dear. Lots of wonderful insight Heidi! TKS for the info. Will try to create this myself. Big hug, and many thanks!
Really great info here. Also your vid on getting off thyroid meds has helped me a lot. Thank you so much!
Thank you Joy! Patrick and I just shot another video on getting off the thyroid meds, thought it would be good to put out a new one because we are getting so many questions on how we did it :)
thank you for adding this link in your video today.Blessing
You always have such great information and love that you can go hard core! Me too and I saw that someone suggested adding the egg powder to whey to create a continuous ferment that’s even more easily absorbed so I’ve started that now. Thank you once again!
Thank you so much for your videos, very informative and helpful. I really appreciate that you do what you do to share your information. Thanks to both you and your husband because I've seen him too. I've just recently came across your videos. God bless you both!
Thank you so much for your time, research put into this and info for women and menopausal women and for saying take calcium with magnesium. Something my own Dr didn't tell me and I had deterioration in my neck. And speaking on almond which I love. Also, Paula Abdul spoke of putting egg shells in her drinks and all for helping her with her lupus. You can grind the egg shells into a powder. I use it in my face masks as well
I LOVE your health and herbal videos!
Thank you so much for this video...I think I really need to do it...been wondering what is wrong with me...
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video! I recently had a lumpectomy and now taking an RX (until I can learn how to reduce estrogen without it). One of the side affects is bone loss and muscle pain. I’m going to start eating egg shells in hopes that it will counter act those effects. 🤷🏼♀️
Thank you! Great info I needed but hadn't found yet.
