What is Shilajit resin?
Shilajit is a black mineral-rich resin packed with organic compounds, traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. Also known as mumie or moomiyo, its bioactive profile makes it a unique natural supplement for a healthy lifestyle.
There are many different qualities on the market. To maintain its natural profile, resin should be pure and unadulterated.
Origin and formation
Shilajit forms in extreme mountain environments, where organic matter is trapped and transformed over time into a substance concentrated in minerals and bioactive compounds.
- High geological pressure
- Temperature variations
- Long-term sun exposure
- Decades-long maturation processes
It is mainly found in regions such as the Himalayas, Altai, Siberia, the Caucasus, and Mongolia.
Natural composition
Authentic Shilajit resin contains a natural mix of:
- Humus (approx. 60–80%) — source of organic carbon
- Benzoic and hippuric acids
- Fatty acids and plant sterols
- Fulvic and humic acids — traditionally associated with micronutrient availability
“The relevance of Shilajit is linked to its ability to interact with micronutrients at a cellular level,” according to scientific literature.
