What is Shilajit?
Imagine the himalayan mountains being covered in rich vegetation in the warm summer months and when winter hits being crushed down by ice and snow. This process happens for maybe 1 million years and compresses all the vibrant life force into a hard black resin. Essentially, it is the life force of the Himalayas condensed into a mineral and nutrient rich elemental.
This rare earth resin is traditionally only used by men in their culture, as it has hormonal effects that have been likened to boosting testosterone. In the United States, we are seeing testosterone levels in men and women at their all time low - half of what it was in 1950 - with that, we recommend this resin for both men and women to bring these levels up.
Shilajit is full of base nutrients and over 84 trace minerals - we need both desperately to function as our foods no longer have these elements in them due to mono-agriculture pulling them from the soil. We would need to eat 25 oranges to get the same amount of iron that we would receive from one in 1920!
Minerals are necessary for basic functions of the body - every time you drink a cup of coffee your body needs Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium to activate - if you don’t have it in abundance it pulls it from storage areas in the body - yikes!
Shilajit also contains Humic and Fulvic acid - these acids have been shown to pull many toxins out of the body including things like micro plastics, metals, some parasites and many “free radicals” that have become abundant in modern American culture.
Sourcing
We source the highest quality Shilajit from the Himalayas - it has been lightly processed and tested which is necessary to remove any heavy metals like Lead and Cadmium from the resin. BE CAREFUL sourcing this resin as you may be poisoning your body if it hasn’t been processed and tested!
