Fulvic Acid
This is a major component, accounting for 60-80% of the total compound, and is believed to be responsible for many of the purported health benefits. Fulvic acid is a powerful antioxidant and has been studied for its potential anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immune-modulating properties.
Humic Acid
Including humic acids and humins, contribute to the overall organic content of Shilajit.
Dibenzo-alpha-pyrones
These are unique compounds found in Shilajit and have shown potential antioxidant and neuroprotective effects.
Essential Minerals
Shilajit contains a wide array of minerals, including copper, silver, zinc, iron, and lead, in their ionic forms. The mineral content can vary significantly depending on the source of the Shilajit.
What is Shilajit?
Shilajit is a thick, sticky substance ranging in colour from pale brown to blackish-brown found primarily in the rocks of the Himalayas. It is formed over centuries from the gradual decomposition of plants and organic matter by microorganisms. This decomposition, combined with the pressure of the mountains and exposure to the sun, results in a mineral-rich substance packed with nutrients and bioactive compounds.
The combination of biodiverse and mineral-rich environment, and harsh mountain climate of the Himalayas results in a potent substance packed with over 80 minerals, including fulvic acid, humic acid, dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, and other bioactive compounds. Shilajit has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in Ayurveda, as a rejuvenating substance and a treatment for various ailments.
Shilajit is also known by many other names, including mineral pitch, Jew's pitch, mineral wax, salajeet, brag-shun, shilajita, moomio, mumie, mumijo, mumiyo, salajit, shilajatu, and primavie.
