@leahshomestead: After that eggshell video hit 3 million views… I realized something. It’s not just that people disagree… it’s how strongly they react to something that used to be completely normal. I’ve had people say: “Good luck with kidney stones.” “People are going to hurt themselves doing this.” And I get it… I really do. Because we’ve been taught to trust what comes in a bottle… and question what comes from our own kitchen. But eggshells are about 95% calcium carbonate — the same base compound used in many calcium supplements. The difference? One comes from your food… the other comes with a label full of ingredients most people can’t pronounce. Now I’m not saying everyone should do this. And I’m definitely not saying ignore your body or your doctor. But I do think it’s worth asking… When did we stop trusting simple things? Eggshells have been used for generations — in gardens, for animals, and yes… even for people. Somewhere along the way, we stopped seeing that as normal… and started seeing it as risky. And that shift? That’s what I think is worth paying attention to. #homesteadlife #fromscratchliving #oldwaysarebest #traditionalwisdom #selfsufficientliving
We cannot absorb the calcium from eggshells so why even bother

You cant get kidney stones (calcium oxalates) from calcium carbonate. The person who said that has no idea what they're talking about.
