Shilajit, also known as mineral pitch, is a rare natural substance found in mountainous regions of the world, particularly in the Himalayas. This tar-like substance forms naturally from decomposed plant matter over millions of years.
Shilajit is extracted from high mountain rocks during summer months. The extraction process is complex and the biomineral is collected by hand. Raw shilajit exists naturally as a sticky tar-like black-brown resin. Shilajit extract is rich in more than 85 different minerals and nutrients. Two of its key components are fulvic acid and humic acid.
Use raw shilajit according to these recommendations:
Choose premium raw shilajit from a reputable supplier. Look for shilajit that has been purified to remove any contaminants and is derived from the Himalayas.
Start with a small amount of raw shilajit, around the size of a pea. When your body adjusts to the dose, you can gradually adjust it.
Combine the raw shilajit with some warm milk or water. Avoid mixing it with boiling beverages.
Consume raw shilajit first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach or before food.
For best results, routinely consume raw shilajit. For optimal experience with raw shilajit, it is recommended to use it consistently for at least 4-6 weeks.
If you have any underlying medical conditions or are taking medication, talk to a healthcare professional before using raw shilajit.

Shilajit by Nature's Blends comes from high-altitude rocks in the Himalayan mountains. It is extracted during summer times when the Himalayan rocks heat up and the decomposed plant-mineral compound oozes out of them.
What is Shilajit?
Shilajit is a naturally-occurring substance with a sticky consistency, blackish-brown colour, and is rich in fulvic acid and humic substances. It can only be obtained from the high-altitude mountains. Shilajit is present primarily in the Himalayas, but you can also find it in Russia, Tibet, Afghanistan, and the north of Chile. Shilajit, a mineral-rich resin, is a prized product as it takes centuries to form.
What are the considerations when using Shilajit?
Shilajit should only be consumed in its purified form, free of metal ions and contaminations. If you consume it in more than the recommended dose, you may experience various effects. Consult with a healthcare professional before use. It may not be suitable for pregnant, lactating, and breastfeeding women.
My Shilajit looks like a liquid
Shilajit has high viscosity and sticky texture, but if it appears liquid or in a runny consistency, it indicates that the product is a fresh batch. It is a natural substance and can change its texture in different environments.
My Shilajit has gone hard
The main reason for Shilajit to go hard or solidify is exposure to air. You can soften your hardened Shilajit by placing it in a warm area and adding a few drops of boiling kettle water to the jar and leave it for an hour to soften.
Where does your Shilajit come from?
Nature's Blends sources Shilajit directly from Pakistan, particularly Gilgit and Chitral areas. The natives hand-collect the resin from the highest altitude rocks of the Himalayas during summertime.
Does Shilajit smell?
Yes! Pure Shilajit carries a distinctively coffee-like naturally pungent smell mixed with the accents of smoky, woody aroma and almost tar-like smells. It feels slightly earthy and herbal in character, too.
How does Shilajit taste?
Shilajit has a characteristic bitterness in its taste which is complemented with earthy, salty, and herbal hints. To compensate for its sourness, you may consume it with milk, water or coffee. You can mix it with something sweet for easier intake.
What is the best time to take Shilajit?
A suitable time to consume Shilajit is early in the morning on an empty stomach. You can also consume it in the evening in certain circumstances. Always consult your health practitioner before Shilajit consumption.
Is your Shilajit lab tested?
Yes! Each jar of every batch is thoroughly tested in 3rd party laboratories to guarantee the purity of Shilajit and to ensure that harmful contaminants are extracted or below the limits set by official authorities.
What sizes of Shilajit do you have?
Nature's Blends provides organic, pure, and raw Shilajit powder in two sizes: 25g and 50g.
Does your Shilajit contain any heavy metal?
No, our Shilajit is purified to be free of lead, arsenic, mercury, and other heavy metals. We purify it with modern processes and guarantee toxin-free products. Certification is provided as proof of our product's purity.
What % of Fulvic acid does your Shilajit contain?
Nature's Blends Shilajit raw powder contains 12%-14% fulvic acid. The content varies depending on where the test is conducted and what methodology is used.
Is your Shilajit GMO free?
Yes. Nature's Blends raw Shilajit powder is a wholly, naturally-occurring substance. From its collection to filtration and packaging, it is not mixed with any genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
What are Fulvic acid and Humic acid?
Both Humic and fulvic acids are humic substances but differ primarily in structure, level of acidity, solubility, degree of polymerisation, molecular weight, and colour. Water-soluble fulvic acid has a low molecular weight, while Humic acid has a greater molecular weight. They are both components found in Shilajit.
How have you purified your Shilajit?
We use a thorough purification method. First, we purify it with fresh spring water from the Himalayan mountains and leave it to sun-dry. Then we treat the washed and sun-dried Shilajit with additional filtration using natural salt rock filtration processes. Before packaging, we ensure that Shilajit is purified, lab tested, and safe for use.
How to Use Shilajit Effectively
1. Choose a High-Quality Product: Ensure that you're using a high-quality, authentic shilajit product from a reputable supplier certified for purity and authenticity.
2. Starting Dosage: If you're new to shilajit, begin with a small dosage and gradually adjust it over time. Start with a pea-sized amount. Follow the dosage instructions provided on the product label or consult a healthcare professional.
3. Method of Consumption: Dissolve a pea-sized portion in hot tea, milk, or plain water. If you find the taste unpleasant, you can add it to other foods. Shilajit can be consumed on an empty stomach, but it is recommended to take it with food.
4. Frequency: For maximum benefits, consume shilajit regularly. Regular consumption over an extended period is advised.
5. Storage: Store shilajit properly to maintain its potency and purity. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources. An airtight container is recommended.
6. Consultation: Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting shilajit or any other supplement.
Instructions for Storing Shilajit:
1. Upon receiving your Shilajit package, ensure to place it upright and let it rest for 12 hours before unsealing it.
2. After the 12-hour waiting period, carefully peel off the seal slowly.
3. Keep the Shilajit jar in an upright position at all times.
4. If you notice that the Shilajit has hardened, you can add one tablespoon of hot, boiling water to it and immediately close the lid. The heat and moisture will help soften the Shilajit.
