Shilajit is a rasayana material and is an adaptogen, i.e. a material that enhances strength, stamina, and stress relief. The composition of shilajit is not well understood, but has been reported to contain at least 85 minerals in Ionic form, including triterpenes and aromatic carboxylic acid, as well as humic acid and fulvic acid.Clinical studies are being conducted to corroborate the ancient claims as to the drug’s various properties. A similar extract from the Caucasus Mountains is called Mumijo, but is not considered as strong as the Himalayan Shilajit.
