It contains more than 20 elements, including calcium, magnesium, sodium, iron, chromium, and lead. It also contains solid paraffin hydrocarbons, proteins, carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, and alcohols. The mineral content is 15–20%, along with trace elements, including selenium.

Shilajit is rich in nutrients, such as mineral salts, amino acids, and other organic components including benzoic acid, hippuric acid, fatty acids (myristic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, petroselinic acid, linoleic acid, lauric acid, saturated fatty acids), ichthyridine, salicylic acid, resins, triterpenes, sterols, aromatic carboxylic acids, 3,4-benzocoumarins, amino groups acids, phenolic lipids, latex, albumin, sterols, tea polyphenols, phenolic lipids, dibenzo-alpha-pyrones (DBP), and dibenzo-α-pyrone chromoproteins (DCPs).

• Stress: promotes hormonal balance improving energy levels and mood. Boosts dopamine
• Anti-viral: inactivates several viruses, including the herpes virus & respiratory syncytial virus 
• Altitude sickness: actively takes part in the transportation of nutrients into deep tissues and helps to overcome tiredness, lethargy, and chronic fatigue, reduces hypoxia 
• Insomnia: acts as an anti stress, anti anxiety, antiepileptic, and adaptogenic agent
• Bone & Joint Health: calcium, magnesium, zinc, fulvic acid, nourishes the joints and reduces inflammation and pain. Potassium and magnesium have a relaxing effect on tight muscles.

Revered in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries, Shilajit is recognized for its potent benefits, particularly in endurance, stamina, and muscle recovery.

Shilajit’s unique composition sets it apart from other supplements, containing over 84 trace minerals, fulvic acid, humic acid, and a range of antioxidants that are particularly beneficial for athletes.

Several studies have proven the profound impact on athletic performance*:

• Significant increase in ATP levels and endurance
• Reduction in muscle inflammation markers post-exercise
• Increased nitric oxide levels, improved circulation
• Reduced cortisol levels, increased mental focus and resilience
• Promoted the retention of maximal muscular strength following the fatiguing protocol and decreased baseline HYP. Elicited favorable muscle and connective tissue adaptations.
• Supported balanced testosterone levels, essential for muscle growth, strength, and overall vitality
• Acts as a powerful source of electrolytes, which are crucial for maintaining water balance, muscle contractions, and metabolism during and after workouts​.

Shilajit’s ability to slow down cellular aging through its antioxidant and mitochondrial benefits helps athletes preserve their physical abilities and recover more quickly from injuries.
