Description

Distribution :
Salajit Chitrali, often referred to as Shilajit, is a potent and revered natural substance primarily found in the high-altitude mountain ranges of the Hindu Kush and Himalayan regions, particularly in Chitral (a district in Pakistan). It is a sticky, tar-like resin that exudes from cracks in the rocks, especially during the warmer months when the heat causes it to ooze out from the stones.

Characteristics:
Color: Salajit Chitrali is typically dark brown or black, and sometimes it can appear glossy or shiny.
Texture: It has a thick, tar-like consistency when fresh but can become more solid when cooled.
Taste: It is known to have a bitter and earthy taste.
Aroma: The resin has a strong, pungent smell, often described as a mixture of earth and minerals.
Composition:
Salajit Chitrali is rich in minerals, fulvic acid, and humic acid. It contains over 85 essential minerals and trace elements, including iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and copper, which contribute to its therapeutic properties. The resin is also believed to contain bioactive compounds such as dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, which are said to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Boosting energy levels: It is believed to enhance stamina, reduce fatigue, and increase overall vitality.
Improving cognitive function: Shilajit is thought to support brain health, improve memory, and aid in concentration.
Enhancing sexual health: It has been traditionally used as a natural aphrodisiac and to treat male infertility and low libido.
