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 other herbal products such as lions mane or he shou wu.
Traditional use: 1 Tablet, 1-2x daily.

I didn’t want to write a review till I was sure. Now I am. Best brain food I’ve ever used. To test the results because I was feeling so different I took the tablets for 3 weeks and then took a brain enhancing test like, math,reading, writing and my score was off the charts.
I got off the tablets for like three weeks took the test again and my scores were average at best. I don’t know what it is but for me the tablets made me think faster and more in-depth. Gonna keep at it . Thank you meta center for making such an powerful and needed product so affordable and accessible.
Cheers 🙂

One of my favorites and must have! I went back school to get my bachelor degree while working a full time job . Accelerated program so quizzes and test was every other week. I noticed right away the stamina and alertness I had after taking shilajit. I took shilajit about 20 min before every quiz or test. To my surprise I graduated Valedictorian and Magna Cum Laude. SHILAJIT!

This stuff works, I bust 12-14 hour shifts at my job site and shilajit keeps me on point. I can be tired and know I got to go in to work so I put a tab under my tongue and get going. Off top shilajit helps me foucus and stay super alert. Also knowing the rest of the great benefits of shilajit puts my mind in an awesome place.
