Have you heard of shilajit? It's a dark, resinous natural substance found in high mountains, also known as mumijo. German Elite Nutrition processes it into capsules providing 2000 mg of extract per daily dose. Convenient for those who want to try this traditional substance without the hassle of sticky resin. On this page, you'll discover exactly what shilajit is, how it's made, and in what forms it can be found.
Shilajit forms over hundreds, sometimes thousands of years, in mountain ranges like the Himalayas, Altai, and Caucasus. Plant remains are very slowly compressed between rocks until an organo-mineral substance remains, seeping from cracks in the summer. This substance is rich in humic substances. The two best known are fulvic acid and humic acid. Fulvic acid is a small molecule that binds minerals and thus moves easily in water. Humic acid is its older brother and behaves differently in a liquid. In addition, mumijo naturally contains dozens of trace elements and substances called dibenzo-alpha-pyrones. In short: shilajit is not a single ingredient but a complete natural complex formed in the mountains. Many people wonder where it actually comes from. The answer, therefore, lies literally in the high mountain rock.
The label indicates a 10:1 extract. This means that the manufacturer concentrates ten kilos of raw material into one kilo of extract. So you get a concentrated form, not raw resin. This shilajit extract is also standardized to 50% fulvic acid and 12% humic acid. Standardizing means that each batch contains the same amount of these substances, instead of an estimate per jar. This is valuable because you encounter the most diverse figures in stores. One brand displays 20,000 mg on the front, another 250 mg. Such numbers mean little if you don't know how much fulvic acid is in them. That's why this percentage is more meaningful than the large number on the packaging. In scientific literature, about 500 mg of purified shilajit per day is often used. The 2000 mg here is well above that. More milligrams is not automatically better, but it makes the dosage easy to follow and compare. When comparing brands, therefore, primarily look at the percentage of fulvic acid and humic acid, not the largest number on the front. A lower total number with high standardization can provide more of these substances than an impressive number without a percentage.
Four capsules together provide 2000 mg of 10:1 extract. Studies often work with approximately 500 mg per day, so this daily dose is generously sized.
Each batch contains 50% fulvic acid and 12% humic acid. This way you know exactly how much active ingredient is in your capsule, instead of an estimate per jar.
It contains 9.5 mg of piperine from black pepper extract. Piperine inhibits enzymes in the intestine that normally break down substances quickly, making more extract available.
The capsule is made of cellulose and is therefore suitable for vegans. The product is lab-tested, which is important for a natural substance extracted from rock.

Shilajit is a natural resinous substance found in high mountain ranges like the Himalayas. It forms over a long period from compressed plant matter between rocks. It naturally contains humic substances such as fulvic acid and humic acid, as well as trace elements.
The recommended daily dose is 4 capsules. Together, they provide 2000 mg of shilajit extract. Take them whole with sufficient water, possibly spread throughout the day. Adhere to the recommended dose and do not exceed it.
Resin is the pure form that you measure with a small spoon and dissolve in hot water. It's pure, but sticky and bitter. Capsules eliminate these hassles: a fixed dosage, no taste, and easy to take on the go. As for the starting material, it's the same raw material.
Yes. As shilajit comes from rock and soil, heavy metal testing is important. This product is laboratory tested. If you would like to see the analysis report, please contact our customer service.
These are the two best-known humic substances in shilajit. Fulvic acid is a small molecule that binds minerals and thus easily passes through the intestinal wall. Humic acid is larger and dissolves differently. Together, they form the fraction on which most shilajit research focuses.
Yes, mumijo and shilajit are two names for the same raw material. Mumijo is the term mainly used in Russia and Central Asia, shilajit comes from the Ayurvedic tradition. So you are buying exactly the same thing.
