They feel the stress levels coming down and they hardly have any difficulty in getting deep peaceful sleep and wake up being fully charged with energy.  Most feel a strong immunity to diseases with shilajit. Incidentally a leading Medical Research Centre established under the guidance of by Louis Pasteur in India has conclusively proven that Shilajit in combination with another herb is a effective treatment for HIV positive patients. This combination has been found to be more effective than the anti retroviral drugs used today to treat HIV patients. If such a potent infectious disease can be managed with shilajit one can very well imagine the level of immunity that shilajit can help build.

Ayurvedic medicine is much older than Chinese medicine. They have known about shilajit since thousands of years. Now shilajit is the number one energy medicine in the world. Shilajit’s power comes from it’s potent mineral content and Fulvic acid. Minerals are everything in building up our body. Minerals are needed to build tissues, organs, bones, brain and for that matter the entire body. –You can take any amount of vitamins but without minerals in the body it is not of any use. The place where shilajit comes from is unique.

Himalayan region millions of years ago was home to thousands of different plant life. These plants grow in prolific manner. When they die they decompose during winter they get frozen and in summer time they form a thick black mineral pitch. In Russia shilajit is called as Mumiyo.

Shilajit is an amazing substance made of decomposed plant material oozing out of rocks in Himalayan Mountains. Natives found about Shilajit hundreds of years ago after observing the monkeys in Himalayan mountains. They observed the monkeys climbing up the rocks and eating a substance oozing out of the rocks. The natives also observed that the monkeys there had a very long life, full of energy and lot of offspring. They realized that this was actually due the substance from the rocks that the monkeys were eating. Shilajit is the mineral pitch. It’s very name in Sanskrit means “rock like”. Shilajit is estimated to be millions of years old. It is the decomposed organic matter from the rich vegetation in Himalayan Mountains which are compressed in the rocks over these millions of years. It has been now found scientifically that this process of compression of plant vegetation in the altitude and climatic conditions of Himalayan Mountains produced a truly magnificent substance.

Shilajit contains some 85 minerals in organic bio available form. It is important that minerals are in ionic and bio available form. The mineral supplements that we normally get are the colloidal minerals. The inorganic minerals are ground, made into fine powder and extruded as tablets, filled in capsules are mixed in syrups and sold over the counter. These minerals are not easily absorbed by the body cells and most of it is deposited in organs and tissues causing more harm in the long run. This is the major difference between the minerals found in shilajit and the ones found ion conventional minerals supplements.  More importantly shilait also contains a type of humic acid known as fulvic acid which is formed due this millions of years of compression. Fulvic acid is one of the most powerful electrolytes in the planet and is increasing being recognized as a miracle supplement. Fulvic acid in shilajit makes your cells more permeable to minerals.

Shilajit by itself has 85 plus minerals in highly available ionic form and it also has fulvic acid in it. Thus benefits of shilajit are compounded several times. Shilajit ensures complete absorption of vital minerals deep into the cells. Fulvic acid also makes the cell walls more permeable and flushes out all the toxins and heavy metals from deep within the cells. Shilajit effectively re mineralizes your body. In Ayurveda the traditional Indian medical system Shilajit is known as the “amrit” or  the elixir that extends life. Ayurveda considers Shilajit as a potent adaptogen and a destroyer of weakness.

Basically the power of shilajit comes from its ability to re mineralize the body. It’s power to supply the body cells of all the essential minerals which is normally not possible due to the thick cell walls. Most of the body imbalances and ailments can be traced to mineral deficiency. This mineral deficiency cannot be treated by taking other mineral supplements or even by taking mineral rich food.

Shilajit is traditionally taken in India along with cow’s milk as this is the main source of protein and fat in the predominantly vegetarian Indian diet. But for westerners who have wide range of source of proteins and fats this can be taken with water juice if milk is not tolerated. Soya milk and fat free milk too are good options. Shilajit can be taken on a daily basis. Shilajit is an adaptogen and will help fight stress continuously. It will rejuvenate and rebuild the body on a level that one could previously only dream, of.

Shilajit means destroyer of weakness. It comes from Ayurvedic system of medicine of india and it is estimated that shilajit is continually being used by humans for well over 10,000 years. It is in fact and perhaps the very basis of Ayurvedic system of medicine. It is a mineral pitch found in Himalayan mountains trapped in the rocks. Thousands of years ago great yogis and sages of Himalayan Mountains India found animals eating shilajit and leading a very healthy and prolonged life. So the yogis thought that there is something magical about shilajit and followed it in their diet.  Shilait is rich in minerals and by some estimation contains over 85 trace minerals and fulvic acid. Fulvic acid is a neutralizer of toxins. It is a neutralizer of pesticides and bad estrogens.

Fulvic acid is one of the powerful internal cleansers and is naturally present in shilajit. Humic acid is also present in this susbtance which help in detoxification. These help in the assimilation of minerals that is consumed as a part of normal diet as well the minerals found in shilajit itself. Shilajit has a smooth flavor and hence can be mixed with any food items and beverages. Mixing shilajit with soya milk, cow’s milk , chocolate or juice is very ideal. Shilajit is not really a herb and not completely a supplement. It is somewhat in between. It is a natural mineral pitch that is found in natural cracks of rocks in the high altitudes of Himalayan Mountains. Shilajit is something you should take and see if it works for you.  Many who have been hesitant in the past about this wonder substance have become lifelong votaries and proponents of shilajit.
