What Is Shilajit Extract?

Shilajit extract is derived from the pure natural shilajit plant and is processed by scientific extraction technology to retain its original pure properties.

Shilajit is a sticky gum-like substance that ranges in color from light brown to dark brown-black. It is a mixture of minerals traditionally used in Ayurveda and has the main biological activity of fulvic acid.

Shilajit is an exudate from various mountain rocks. It is mainly produced in India, Russia, Pakistan and China. It is common from May to July. And it comes mostly from the Himalayas and the Hindu Kush Mountains. Shilajit is a mixture of plant and mineral components. Studies have shown that it is formed when organic plant materials are compressed between heavy rocks. This substance usually grows on sunny steep rock walls at high altitudes of 1,000 to 5,000 meters above sea level. Its formation is simply incredible. Studies have also found that shilajit is likely to form in porous rock areas that are naturally rich in organic carbon.

Shilajit extract (fulvic acid) is believed to have many benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immune-enhancing, and cardiovascular health protection.

Fulvic acid has been proven to contain high-quality electrolytes, which can supplement the body to provide and replenish energy to cells and maintain the electrical potential balance of cells; on the other hand, it promotes the metabolism of living cells. It assists and catalyzes the reactions of human enzymes, the structural adjustment of hormones and the utilization of vitamins. Fulvic acid transports nutrients into cells and increases the oxygen content in the blood. Among the dissolved nutrients and elements, fulvic acid is very powerful, allowing one fulvic acid molecule to carry 70 or more minerals and trace elements into cells.

Fulvic acid makes cell membranes more permeable. Therefore, nutrients can enter cells more easily and waste can leave cells more easily. One of the strongest advantages of fulvic acid minerals is absorption, which greatly exceeds traditional tablet supplements. As with any nutrition or supplement, the only way the body can benefit is absorption, and fulvic acid enhances this process. Fulvic acid increases oxygen absorption and reduces acidity. Fulvic acid enters the body as a weak alkaline and can quickly destroy the acid in body fluids, promote acid-base balance in the body, and help increase the amount of oxygen in the blood. Hypoxia is the main cause of acidity. Excessive body acidity has been linked to nearly every degenerative disease, including osteoporosis, arthritis, kidney stones, tooth decay, sleep disorders, depression, and more.

What Are The Functions Of Shilajit Extract?

1.Helps relieve stress and stress response

For most people, facing various stresses in life and work is a very common experience. From mental health disorders to cardiovascular disease, many health-related diseases may be related to chronic or long-term stress. Shilajit may help relieve oxidative stress and reduce inflammation in the body. Shilajit is a potent antioxidant and may increase the level of other antioxidants produced by the body, such as catalase.

2.Helps to refresh

Shilajit helps with fatigue. An animal study involving a rat model of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) found that supplementing with shilajit for 3 weeks may be effective. The study also found that supplementing with shilajit may help alleviate anxiety symptoms that may be associated with chronic fatigue syndrome.

3.Helps improve sports performance

Shilajit helps resist fatigue in terms of athletic performance. In one study, 63 young men aged 21 to 23 who were active experienced less fatigue during exercise and improved their performance in strength training after supplementing with shilajit. The subjects were divided into a group that took shilajit supplements and a placebo group. After 8 weeks, the group that took shilajit supplements had more reduced fatigue symptoms compared to the placebo group.

4.Helps with wound repair

Research shows that shilajit may help speed up the wound repair process. A test tube study found that shilajit may make wounds heal faster. The study also found that this convincing wonder substance may reduce the inflammatory response associated with injuries.

In another randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, shilajit was studied for its possible effectiveness in treating fractures. The study followed 160 subjects aged 18-60 from three different hospitals who were diagnosed with tibia fractures. The subjects were divided into two groups and took either shilajit supplement or placebo for 28 days. The study evaluated the X-ray examination and found that the recovery rate was 24 days faster in the group taking shilajit supplement compared to the placebo group.
