Shilajit is a natural substance that is found in the rocks of the Himalayas and other mountain ranges. It is rich in fulvic acid and minerals, and has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. Some of the benefits of shilajit are:
- improve brain function and prevent or slow Alzheimer's disease by preventing the buildup of tau protein and reducing inflammation in the brain.
- increase testosterone levels and fertility in men by stimulating the production and activity of hormones and sperm.
- help treat chronic fatigue syndrome by restoring energy and preventing mitochondrial dysfunction.
- anti-aging effects by acting as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, and protecting the cells from damage and stress.
- help treat anemia by providing iron and humic acid, which are essential for the formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin.
- antiviral properties and fight off various viruses, including some herpes viruses.
- improve heart health by lowering blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides, and preventing oxidative damage to the heart tissue.
- enhance bone density and prevent osteoporosis, especially in women, by increasing the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the bones.
