Shilajit is a sticky substance found in the rocks of the Himalayas. The way it develops comes from centuries from the slow decomposition of plants. It has been commonly used in ayurvedic medicine and has been known to have a positive effect on your overall health and well being. Here are reported studies the benefits of Shilajit:

CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME

It has been known to be the ultimate supplement for energy. Which is why it has been used for chronic fatigue syndrome. In a study from 2012, researchers gave lab rats shilajit for 21 days, and then induced Chronic fatigue syndrome by forcing the rats to swim 15 mins for 21 consecutive days. The results found that shilajit helped reduce the effects of Chronic fatigue syndrome. The researches think that Shilajit helped to prevent mitochondrial dysfunction which is a disorder that occurs when structures that produce energy for a cell malfunction.

LOW TESTOSTERONE LEVELS

Testosterone is a primary male sex hormone but some men have a lower level than others, and this can for many reasons such as diet, stress, age and a wide range of things. The signs a man should take heed to of low T is a low sex drive, hair loss, loss of muscle mass, fatigue and increased body fat. In one clinical study of male volunteers btw the ages of 45 and 55, half of the participates were given a placebo and the other half were given 250 mg dose of Shilajit twice a day. After 90 consecutive days, the study found that’s participates receiving shilajit had a significant higher T level compared to the placebo group.

IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA

Iron deficiency anemia can come from a low iron diet, blood loss or an inability to absorb iron. The symptoms of this include fatigue, weakness, cold hands and feet, headaches or irregular heartbeat. Shilajit has been known to help with this tremendously. A study divided 18 rats into 3 groups of six. Researches induced anemia in the second and third group. Rats in the third group received 500 mg of shilajit after 11 days. The researchers collected blood samples from all groups of day 21. The results revealed that rats in the third group had higher levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit and red blood cells compared to rats in the second group. These are all vital components of your blood.

INFERTILITY

Shilajit has been used for this for men. A study done on a group of 60 infertile men took shilajit twice a day for 90 days after meals. At the end of the 90 day period more than 60% of the men showed an increase in total sperm count. But that’s not all. More than 12% had an increase in sperm motility which is the speed that sperm moves.

SLOWS ALZHEIMERS DISEASE

Alzheimers disease is a progressive brain disorder that causes problems with memory, behavior and the ability to think. Based on the molecular composition of shilajit some researches believe that shilajit may prevent or slow the progressive of this disease. The primary component of shilajit is fulvic acid. This powerful antioxidant contributes to cognitive health by preventing the accumulation of tau protein. Tau proteins are an important part of your nervous system. But a build up can trigger brain cell damage. Researchers think that fulvic acid in shilajit may stop the abnormal buildup of Tau protein and reduce inflammation, potentially improving Alzheimers symptoms.

AGING

As anyone who eats right and takes the best quality supplement will increase their livespan Shilajit has been known to be one of those quality supplments that help with that. Since shilajit is rich in fulvic acid, a strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, it may also protect against free radicals and cellular damage. As a result regular use of shilajit may contribute to longevity.

HEART HEALTH

Heart health is a very serious part of your daily life, exercise, diet and daily activity can make a difference to whether you have a healthy heart or not. Researchers tested the cardiac performance of shilajit on lab rats. After receiving a pretreatment of shilajit, some rats were injected with isoproterenol to induce heart injury. The study found that rats given shilajit prior to cardiac injury had fewer cardiac lesions. IF YOU HAVE HEART DISEASE YOU SHOULDN’T TAKE SHILAJIT. DON’T TAKE IT IF YOU HAVE SICKLE CELL, ANEMIA, HEMOCHROMATOSIS THIS IS TO MUCH IRON IN YOUR BLOOD. STOP TAKING IT IF YOU DEVELOP A RASH, INCREASED HEART RATE OR DIZZINESS.
