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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is shilajit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilajit 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat 2000 mg and 10:1 mean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlack pepper and absorption\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c!--nl__\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe formula also contains black pepper extract, with 9.5 mg of piperine per daily dose. Piperine is the substance that gives black pepper its pungency. In the body, piperine inhibits certain intestinal enzymes that normally break down substances quickly. Manufacturers therefore often add it to plant extracts. It's a classic combination found in many traditional preparations. In addition, the capsule shell is plant-based, made of cellulose instead of gelatin, and contains a small amount of anti-caking agent to keep the powder free. The formula contains no other additives. The content thus remains close to the raw material itself, supplemented only by pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCapsules or resin, what's the difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilajit is roughly available in two forms. The classic form is resin, which you dose with a small spoon and dissolve in hot water. Pure, but sticky and quite bitter in taste. The capsule form here eliminates these hassles. You swallow four capsules with a little water and you're done. Each capsule is vegetable, so it's also suitable if you're vegan. For travel or at the office, it's much more practical than carrying around a jar of resin. A jar contains 180 capsules, enough for about a month and a half at four per day. If you want to take it gradually, you can start with a smaller amount and slowly increase to four. This keeps your routine simple and clear. Store the jar in a dry and cool place and close it tightly after use, as shilajit naturally attracts moisture. For many people, this fixed dosage in capsules is precisely the reason to choose this form rather than loose resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith these mumijo capsules, you get a concentrated shilajit extract with a fixed amount of fulvic acid and humic acid, supplemented with black pepper. A simple way to get acquainted with a natural substance harvested and passed down for centuries in the mountains of Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"German Elite Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49386142105828,"sku":"gen-092","price":25.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/ShilajitMaxGEN.jpg?v=1783855918","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/gen-mumijo-shilajit-max-2000mg-180-gelules","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
