What is Shilajit?

The term shilajit comes from Sanskrit and means "mountain conqueror." It is a natural mineral product that forms in mountain ranges such as the Himalayas, the Altai Mountains, and the Andes. Also known as mumijo or mumie , it originates from centuries of plant decomposition mediated by microorganisms.

Authentic Shilajit is rare and contains a unique blend of nutrients such as:

  • Fulvic and humic acids – essential for mineral absorption
  • Key minerals such as calcium, magnesium and sodium
