There is a thin white film just under the shell of a chicken egg. This is the shell shell. It contains a lot of nutrients: calcium, magnesium, protein. As for the protein, it contains arginine, glutamic acid, methionine, histidine, cystine and proline.
Hyaluronic acid (HA), which I mentioned in the preamble to the article, gives elasticity to joints, stiffness of the spinal discs, and is very important for the eyes. Has a high water content. Scientists believe that it is this quality of HA that allows some tissues to resist compression. HA also acts as a kind of shock absorber in some parts of the body.
Since the eggshell film contains all the nutrients needed to create healthy connective tissue, scientists have developed a medicine made entirely from the shell membrane. This product is known as the Natural Eggshell Membrane (NEM®, natural egg shell). It is taken orally or as an injection to protect, lubricate, relieve pain, and hydrate certain cartilage and tissues in the treatment of arthritis.
Studies with this product have shown that people with bone and joint disorders begin to experience comfort and pain relief from movement as early as 7-10 days after the drug is used. Well, how does traditional medicine use the shell membrane?
An eggshell shell for health and beauty. Seven recipes
Break the egg and make whatever you want out of its contents: we won't need it for medicinal purposes. Then, instead of discarding the shell, peel off the thin white film and use it as a medicine.
1.Heal the wound after an unsuccessful manicure. Clipping the skin near your nails, often called a quick manicure, can be very painful, especially if the skin has been pulled or ripped off.
Take pieces of shell shell and place them wet side down on problem areas. Leave there until dry. Check the condition of the sore the next day and, if not everything has healed, repeat the treatment. Quite often, one procedure is all that is needed.
2. Use shell cover if cut or scratched. Place the wet side of the film over the cut and leave to dry. Tie it if necessary. The wound will heal quickly, and there will be no scar on the healed area.
3. Get rid of acne and clear acne. The procedure is the same as for other tips. Drying, the film will draw out all unnecessary and at the same time heal the area of \u200b\u200bthe skin damaged by acne or pimples.
4. Use a shell cover to remove a splinter or shard of glass that is difficult to remove with tweezers. It's a bit like extracting blackheads. As it dries, the film will tend to pull out the splinter, its tip will appear, and you can pull it out.
5. Treat the ingrown nail with the shell. Try wrapping the wet side of the tape over sore nails and letting it sit overnight. Use a bandage if necessary to keep the applique in place.
6. Try using a wet shell film to get rid of boils. Place pieces of film on them until you knock out the boil shaft like a splinter.
7. Use the shell of the egg for burns, including sunburn. As in other cases, it is applied with the inner, wet side to the burnt place.
The shell membrane contains antimicrobial substances. It is bactericidal: it does not allow microbes to pass through, but allows air to pass freely. This partially explains the reason for her success in healing. The timing of wound healing with the use of the shell membrane always decreases, and the scarring remains significantly less or does not remain at all.

HOW TO BOOK EGGS - ALL WAYS
Differently boiled eggs differ in the degree of hardening of the yolk.
Boiled chicken eggs (laid in cold water)
Wash the eggs and boil them in enough cold water to cover them.
Cooking time after the water boils:
soft-boiled eggs - 3 min.
eggs in a bag - 4-5 minutes (depending on size)
hard boiled eggs - 7-8 minutes.
When setting eggs in cold water, it is difficult to determine the correct cooking time. it strongly depends on the heating rate.
So you can boil hard-boiled eggs, because when laying in cold water, the shell bursts less often.
NOTE. It should be borne in mind that with a significant increase in the height of the terrain above sea level, both the atmospheric pressure and the boiling point of water decrease. In this case, the cooking time is slightly increased.
The boiling point of water can be increased by adding b about
more salt.
Boiled chicken eggs (with a lay in boiling water)
Place the eggs carefully in boiling salted water, avoiding hitting the bottom of the dish.
After boiling, cook, depending on the size of the egg:
soft-boiled - 2-4 minutes (to taste),
in a bag - 4.5-5.5 minutes,
hard boiled - 8-10 minutes.
Remove the finished eggs and immediately place them in cold water to make it easier to remove the shells.
To prevent the eggs from bursting during cooking, the shell can be lightly punctured with a needle at both ends.
Scrambled eggs
Place the washed eggs in boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes. You can cook them differently. Put the eggs in a saucepan and pour boiling water over them so that the water covers them.
After 10 minutes, drain the water, pour boiling water again and after 2-3 minutes remove the eggs.
The white of an egg cooked in this way does not harden, it thickens into a delicate white mass, the yolk remains semi-liquid.
Serve soft-boiled eggs only hot.
Eggs "in a bag"
Boil eggs in the same way as soft-boiled, but the duration of cooking is 5-6 minutes. After boiling, pour over them with cold water and serve hot.
Bagged eggs can be served with a variety of side dishes and sauces.
Hard boiled eggs
Dip the eggs in boiling water and cook for 10 minutes. With longer boiling, the protein becomes too hard and the bright yellow color of the yolk disappears.
Immediately immerse the boiled eggs in cold water to make it easier to remove the shell.
Serve the eggs in their shells hot or cold.
Graduation eggs
Ingredients : 2 eggs, 1 glass of bone broth (silt of skim broth, or salted water), 2 tbsp. tablespoons of wine vinegar, 2 cloves of garlic, 30 g butter, 1 tbsp. a spoonful of flour, salt, ground sweet red pepper, dill, 1/2 teaspoon of mustard, a pinch of sugar.
Preparation
Bring the broth to a boil, pour in the vinegar and salt. In a slightly boiling broth, gently release the eggs (one at a time) and cook them until the protein turns white. Then place with a slotted spoon on a heated and oiled dish.
Form a ball out of half the amount of butter and flour and dip into a boiling broth. Boil the resulting sauce, remove from heat and add salt, red pepper, mustard, garlic and dill to taste.
Heat the rest of the oil (but do not fry), color with a little red pepper (or tomato puree) and pour over the eggs.
Serve the sauce separately in a gravy boat.
Instead of sauce for eggs, you can serve whipped sour milk, seasoned to taste with garlic, dill, salt and vegetable oil (Bulgarian eggs), grated cheese, tomato juice.
Poached egg (boiled without shell)
A poached egg is an egg that is boiled without the shell in a pouch. This egg is often used in sandwiches and salads. It can also be served separately with sauce.
Ingredients
:
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tsp 6% vinegar
Preparation
The egg should be as fresh as possible, preferably no older than 1 week. In older eggs, the white spreads during cooking, and in fresh eggs it solidifies compactly near the yolk, forming a bag. (By the way, this is a way of determining the "staleness" of an egg.)
Pour 1-1.5 liters of water into a low saucepan or stewpan. Season with salt and vinegar. Bring the water to a boil. (Salt is needed to flavor the egg, but it reduces the sheen of the protein and makes it more matte. Vinegar is needed when using a not very fresh egg - it reduces the spread of the protein. If you cook the egg according to the classic recipe, then you do not need to add anything to the water. instead of water, you can use broth, milk, wine, etc.)
Poached egg in the microwave
Chicken egg - 1 pc.
Vinegar 9% - 0.5 tsp
Water (boiling water) - 150-200 ml
Pour half a teaspoon of vinegar into a microwave-safe bowl.
Add 150-200 ml of water (if you want the finished egg to be completely covered with protein, add more water).
Gently break the egg without damaging the yolk and release it into a cup of water.
Place the egg bowl in the microwave for 45 seconds at full power.
Remove the finished egg with a slotted spoon, let the water drain, put on a piece of bread.
Can be served with hollandaise sauce or sour cream.

Preparation
PreparationWe take 2.5 heads of garlic, divide it into cloves, peel.
We spread the peeled cloves in a small form in one layer, pour in dry white wine so that it only covers the bottom, cover with foil and bake in the oven at 180 gr. From about 30 minutes until soft.
Then I knead the garlic with a spoon until a paste, add 1 tbsp. l. freshly squeezed lemon juice and most importantly - what gives all the flavor of the taste - 1 teaspoon of truffle oil.
