Shilajit is a natural substance that is found primarily in the Himalayan mountain range. It is a tar-like substance that is believed to have medicinal properties and is often used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. The resin is composed of humus and organic plant matter that has been compressed and heated by layers of rock over time. It is typically sold in a semi-solid or powder form and is said to have a wide range of health benefits, including increasing energy and stamina, improving mental function, and reducing inflammation. However, more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of shilajit and its potential side effects.
Some of the potential benefits of shilajit include:
- Increasing energy and stamina: According to traditional Ayurvedic medicine, shilajit can help to increase energy levels and improve overall stamina.
- Improving mental function: Some studies suggest that shilajit may be able to improve cognitive function and memory, particularly in older adults.
- Reducing inflammation: Shilajit has been found to contain compounds that may help to reduce inflammation in the body, which could be beneficial for conditions such as arthritis and asthma.
- Enhancing physical performance: Some studies suggest that shilajit may help to improve physical performance and endurance, potentially due to its ability to increase energy levels.
- Supporting the immune system: Shilajit may help to boost the immune system by increasing the production of white blood cells and other immune cells.
- Improving bone health: Studies have suggested that shilajit may help to improve bone density and strength, which could be beneficial for conditions such as osteoporosis.

Extraction method
The traditional method of extraction involves heating the shilajit to make it more pliable and then scraping it off the rocks by hand. This method is considered to be the most authentic way of extracting shilajit, as it involves minimal processing and preserves the natural composition of the substance.
Heat does not effect the quality as with other herbal products such as lions mane or he shou wu.
Traditional use: rice grain to pea size amount, put into warm milk or tea water. Stir and then drink.

My mental clarity, ability to focus and stay on task for 10-14hrs a day is stronger than ever now. Probably *tmi but I also have been meditating to balance and transmute that youthful energy and vigor into a deeper and stronger connection to source. Thank you

I’m new to taking Shilajit and I am so glad I tried this product. I put this in my morning tea and i feel so much energy without feeling stimulated like coffee. This is such an amazing product, it even takes away my migraines and basically eliminates my PMS symptoms. This is definitely a supplement that I will continue taking going forward.

This I will definitely be getting again, I wasn’t into meditation when I started getting the products on the meta center. I’m interested on how that experience will be the next time I order my super products. 5 star for me

I use this in my teas in the morning and I know it’s increased my overall health. I feel it also gives me more will power and I say this becos when I ran out of my teas and stopped using it I immediately fell back into eating and dinking those things that are unhealthy like chips, sweets, and beer 🙁 lol. I really feel the combination of the teas along with the resin has helped me stay focused and receive more clarity about my self and my health. Time to get back on track!! Thank you Metacenter!

this shelijit resin is incredible for the brain and body. it increases mentality capacity which means longer states of concentration, enhances stamina and fertility, and it has a fast turnover recovery process after vigorous workouts. the catch here is to take it as directed which is a (((rice grain size))) amount. overtime, the benefits are exponential with continue use of this product.
