Himalayan mineral resin rich in fulvic acid and trace minerals

We rank Shilajit by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.

What it is

Shilajit is a mineral resin, which is a thick, sticky substance, found primarily in the Himalayan mountains. It is highly concentrated in fulvic acid, a natural organic compound that helps the body absorb nutrients, and various trace minerals, which are minerals the body needs in very small amounts.

Why it's used

It is used as a supplement to provide the body with a wide array of minerals. The presence of fulvic acid is intended to improve the way the body takes up these minerals and other nutrients from the diet.

How it's made

The raw resin is collected from mountain rocks and then purified to remove impurities and heavy metals. Once cleaned, the substance is processed into a concentrated form, which is then sold as a thick paste or dried into a powder for use in capsules.

What it typically costs

This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the raw resin must be sourced from specific high-altitude regions and requires a careful purification process to ensure it is safe for consumption.
