Answer 3

Appendicitis is due to a fecal stone, it gets lodged in your appendix and then it starts to get infected. This is when you're either not getting enough exercise (people with desk jobs are more prone to them due to sitting all day), enough water or enough fiber in your diet. The shells are probably not being digested properly so they are scraping the walls of your intestines. You really shouldn't eat them, you could end up perforating your intestine which requires immediate medical attention.
