kappydell Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the old remedy for anemia - put some iron nails into an apple for a few days, then remove and eat the apple. Supposedly some of the iron goes into the apple. Heard about it as a child, tried it. The apple tasted metallic, so it must have worked. I had less success with putting eggshells into vinegar for a calcium supplement - they were so disgusting I dared not try the liquid. Maybe I should have kept it in the refrigerator or rinsed out the shells better (ya' think???facepalm). The boiled bones did soften up nicely, and I did blend them into some soup, so that was my method of choice as a way to obtain calcium. Quote Link to comment
