Shilajit is a natural mineral complex and resin-like substance that is found mainly in mountain regions such as the Himalayas. Over a long period of time, plant material breaks down under high pressure and temperature, causing a dark, tar-like mass to emerge from rock crevices. In Central Asia and Russia, shilajit is also known as “mummy” or “mumiyo”.
In traditional Ayurvedic practice, shilajit has been used for centuries as natural support for energy and recovery. Today, shilajit is mainly used worldwide as a food supplement.
High-quality shilajit is naturally rich in more than 80 minerals and trace elements, and contains high levels of fulvic and humic acids. These help to transport minerals more efficiently throughout the body so that they can be used for energy production and to support the body’s natural defences.*
Thanks to this composition, shilajit is often used for:
- supporting natural energy production*
- supporting the immune system*
- supplementing minerals and trace elements in the diet*
