Nutritional Properties of Shilajit
Shilajit Gold® contains between 60-80% Fulvic Acid, which is a non-toxic
organic substance found in healthy soil. However changes in modern farming including the use of pesticides and herbicides means our diets are mostly depleted of this organic super-nutrient, which would otherwise provide optimum health. Thanks to mother nature the unspoilt mountains of the Himalayas have preserved this super-nutrient in the form of Shilajit. The health benefits of fulvic acid are vast and include improved brain function, improved nutrient absorption from the food we consume, correcting anaemia, improved digestive disorders such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn’s, Colitis),
Irritable Bowel Syndrome, correcting gut bacteria and yeast overgrowth.
Fulvic acid contains antioxidants acting as a detoxification agent helping eliminate free radicals, heavy metals, and toxins from within the body. Its high level of electrolytes helps to improve the life of cells within the body such as heart, muscle and brain, improving energy levels and overall health. (Levy. J, Sept 2019).
Fulvic Acids electrolytes can act as an anti-inflammatory reducing pain,
swelling, inflammation and improving circulation to bones and muscles. It has been shown to be beneficial for conditions such as chronic nerve pain, arthritic pain, headaches, musculoskeletal conditions. (Levy. J, Sept 2019).
Dibenzo-α-pyrones
the process of generating energy from nutrients
The main bioactives of Shilajit have been identified as dibenzo-α-pyrones DBPs (microscopic organisms that have some biological effect on our bodies), These bioactive compounds play a crucial role in energy metabolism (the process of generating energy from nutrients) in all animal cells including those of humans. Shilajit Gold® helps the body to absorb more of the nutrients from food, converting them into increased energy levels.
Vitamins and Minerals
helps to compensate for many essential vitamins.
More and more people now noticing the health benefits from consuming less or no meat and are turning to a plant based diet for most if not all their nutritional needs.
Shilajit Gold® is an essential supplement, especially for those on a vegan or vegetarian diet, as it helps to compensate for many essential vitamins and minerals otherwise found in meat sources.
