The science behind it
Shilajit is a complex natural mixture. It typically contains about 60 to 80 per cent humic substances, especially fulvic acid, together with dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, small peptides and a range of minerals. Its composition varies with the region, altitude and processing, which makes standardisation important.
Fulvic acid is a small, water-soluble organic molecule that can bind minerals and may help carry them across cell membranes, though this is mostly shown in laboratory work. Shilajit's dibenzo-alpha-pyrones are thought to act as antioxidants and may influence mitochondrial function, the energy-making machinery inside cells. In a small human trial (Pandit et al., Andrologia, 2016), a purified shilajit extract was associated with higher testosterone in healthy men over ninety days. Another small trial in older adults reported improved muscle strength with a purified shilajit extract. These findings are early and trials are small.
An important quality issue: raw, unpurified shilajit collected from rocks can carry heavy metals, mycotoxins and microbes. Traditional Ayurvedic practice involves a purification step known as shodhana. Choose products that state that the material is purified and tested for heavy metals. Shilajit is traditionally taken dissolved in warm water or milk.
