Shilajit

Enhance Everyday Wellbeing with Shilajit

Shilajit is a supplement common in Ayurvedic medicine, where it is considered to promote vitality and longevity. It develops over centuries from the slow decomposition of plants and minerals in high-altitude mountains before being purified into a resinous substance.  

Today, Shilajit is mainly taken for antioxidant and energy-boosting properties but has many other beneficial properties and is a brilliant supplement to support overall health. Shilajit is also a great option for promoting slow ageing, supporting heart health and supporting iron intake.

About Shilajit

For centuries, Shilajit has been a folk medicine across Eastern and Central Asia, where it was typically considered to aid recovery from fatigue and injury. It is formed in a mineral tar or resin and is highly viscous.  

Rich in minerals and fulvic acid, Shilajit contains more than 20 elements, including calcium and magnesium; it is an effective supplement that can support overall health and well-being. Today, Shilajit is available in powder or liquid form, boasting benefits such as aiding in iron deficiency, providing powerful antioxidants, and improving physical stamina.

With an impressive range of benefits, it is no surprise that Shilajit has become increasingly popular amongst athletes, fitness enthusiasts and people seeking to support their health and wellness naturally. 

What We Say...

"We all want to support our overall health and well-being, but finding the time to research and take multiple supplements isn’t always realistic. With its wide range of potential benefits, Shilajit is a convenient all-in-one option, making it an easy and practical addition to your daily wellness routine."

- Kimberley, Clinic & Customer Experience Manager

The Benefits of Shilajit, Explored 

Aside from contributing to overall health and well-being, Shilajit has a range of specific benefits.

Improve Cognitive Health: The primary component of Shilajit is fulvic acid, a powerful antioxidant that contributes to cognitive health. It is believed that fulvic acid can improve cognitive health with the potential to reduce inflammation.  

Iron & Energy Support: The components of Shilajit can work to increase iron levels when taken consistently. 

Supporting heart health: When used as a dietary supplement, Shilajit may also improve heart health and functioning.  

Treating infertility: Shilajit is also a safe supplement for male infertility, proven to increase sperm mobility.

Adding Shilajit To Your Wellness Routine

Taking daily: Shilajit is best taken in the form of resin, powder or capsule on an empty stomach. Typically, the supplement should be dissolved in warm water, milk or herbal tea. The recommended daily dose is 250- 500 mg. 

Taken with other supplements: Although Shilajit is a great stand-alone supplement, it can be combined with other supplements to increase its effect, such as: 

Adaptogens: Adaptogens, natural herbs or roots, are used to help you adapt and cope with stress. When combined with Adaptogens, Shilajit can give extra support for stress resilience, balance and energy. Adaptogen blends are increasingly popular. Check out Sixways Unwind + Recover Mushroom Blend, a warming cacao-based drink designed to become part of your evening routine. 

Minerals: Shilajit can be highly beneficial when taken alongside minerals, particularly when combined with magnesium, offering ATP production, muscle recovery and nervous system balance. 

Vitamins: Vitamin D can be used alongside Shilajit to complement its mineral profile and mitochondrial support. 

Who Could Benefit from Taking Shilajit?  

Active adults & athletes: Athletes and those who exercise heavily have been shown to have less post-workout fatigue after taking Shilajit.  

Men wanting to boost testosterone: Shilajit has been demonstrated to increase male fertility, boosting dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) & total testosterone levels.  

Those wanting to manage anaemia: Shilajit's fulvic acid content can also aid the body in absorbing iron, which can protect against anaemia.  

People concerned with cognitive health issues: Shilajit may be beneficial in lowering the risk of Alzheimer’s and slowing the progression of cognitive decline due to the antioxidants in Shilajit.  

Post-menopausal women: Shilajit may support post-menopausal women by helping to block signals that break down bone tissue whilst simultaneously increasing the protective proteins that strengthen bones.  

When Should You Take Shilajit and How Much?  

Shilajit is safe and can be very beneficial when taken in the correct and moderate doses. The recommended dose can range from 100 to 500mg; always check the dosage recommended on your supplements.  

Shilajit is generally most effective when taken early in the morning, ideally 30 minutes before breakfast, with warm water or milk. Taking Shilajit early in the morning enhances absorption of fulvic acid, supports energy production and can ensure benefits last throughout the day.  

For the workout benefits of Shilajit, it is recommended to take 30-45 minutes before exercise for physical endurance, muscle strength or fast recovery.
