Shilajit, also known as Mineral Pitch or Mumijo, is a very healthy organic substance for human beings that is found in the rocky mountains of the Himalayas, Altai, Caucasus, and other mountain ranges. Shilajit is found in a sticky form, tar-like resin that oozes from the cracks of the mountains,  which was formed over centuries due to decomposition of plant and microbial matter. It consists of a wide range of minerals (around 84), including fulvic acid, humic acid, selenium, zinc, iron, and many other important minerals for human body. The exact composition of shilajit may vary depending on the source of origin.

Composition: We offer Shilajit from mountainous Himalayan range which is highly purified golden grade Shilajit mineral pitch.

Shilajit has been used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic medicine in Indian subcontinent, as well as in other traditional medical systems in the Middle East and Central Asia. It is highly recommended for its purported health benefits, and it is often considered as an adaptogen, which means it helping the body adapt to stress, anxiety and maintain overall balance.

Antioxidant effects: Shilajit has fulvic and humic acids which are known antioxidants. These help neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage.
Immune system support: Some research indicate that shilajit may have immune-modulating effects,  which supports the body’s immune response.
Anti-aging properties: The antioxidants and minerals in shilajit is believed to have a positive impact on aging-related processes, although still more research is needed in this field.
*Testosterone levels: Low testosterone level can lead men to experience a number of symptoms, including less sex drive, erectile dysfunction (ED), low energy, fatigue, and depression. These problems can be bothersome and disruptive to day to day life, but they can be improved with testosterone therapy.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study was conducted to test the effect of purified Shilajit on testosterone levels among healthy men aged 45 to 55 years. The participants were randomly assigned to receive either 250 mg of purified Shilajit twice each day or a placebo for 90 days. The treatment with Shilajit significantly increased total testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) levels, free testosterone compared to placebo, while gonadotropic hormones (LH and FSH) levels remained stable.
