Eggs: eggs are a great source of protein, they're full of vitamins and minerals and they taste good too. But once you crack the shell and fry up them eggs, what good is the shell but tossing in the trash. A lot more than you'd think. The next time you're making omelets, don't toss your shells. Eggshells have nearly as many uses as the eggs themselves.
Here are a few ways to get the most from your eggs.
Top 7 Uses Of Eggshells:
1.Mineral Supplement: Eggshells contains calcium carbonate, which is the main ingredient of many antacids and calcium supplements. Try grinding clean egg shells into a fine powder and adding to shakes or smoothies to get an extra boost of calcium. You can also get the benefit of added minerals in your soups and stews. By adding crushed egg shells to your stock or broth.
2.Household Cleaner: you can make an easy and non toxic abrasive cleaner by grinding some eggshells and mixing them with soapy water in clean bottle or jar. Use the concoction to scrub your dirty pots and pans or your kitchen sink.

Add clean and dry eggshell pieces to apple cider vinegar and let the shells soak in the vinegar for two or three days. Then dab the mixture on Irritated or itchy skin with a cotton ball.
4.Seedling Starters: take an eggshell, rinse, add a hole on bottom for drainage and crack the other end. Full this end with dirt and one to two seeds. Once they're ready to be planted, just crack the eggshell at the bottom and plant the young plant along with shell.
