Different Types Of Shilajit: What You Need To Know

Wait, what is Shilajit? It is an organic supplement used in Ayurvedic medicine for sexual health benefits. Shilajit is a dark-coloured, sticky liquid secreted from rocks, sourced from 16,000 feet in the Himalayas and loaded with minerals, fulvic acid and antioxidants, Shilajit has earned the name of being a “natural rejuvenator” due to its manifold health benefits. Now, with a few types available, the decision of choosing the correct type of Shilajit can be a bit daunting. This breakdown will take you through some of the types of Shilajit, their benefits, and how to pick the one that best suits your needs.

Different Types Of Shilajit

Shilajit Resin

The resin form is the most natural and potent form of Shilajit, which is a thick, sticky texture slightly processed to ensure preservation in its bioactive compounds. Since Shilajit has higher concentrations of fulvic acid in its resin form, it promotes nutrient absorption and detoxification.
- Benefits: Shilajit resin is an energizer and endurance booster that helps in vitality. It has high mineral and fulvic acid concentration, which assists in cellular regeneration and boosts the immune system.
- Use: Consume it with warm water or milk before meals because the resin form has a very strong taste and smell, but it is highly potent.
- Who It Is Best For: If you are looking for the purest form of Shilajit, pick resin.

Shilajit Solid

The other type is Shilajit solid, which is actually like resin but dried into a more solid state. This kind is easier to handle and store than the sticky resin. Though less potent, it still retains many of Shilajit's original minerals and compounds.
- Benefits: As with the resin, Shilajit solid enhances energy, stamina, and immunity. It also supports cognitive function, which helps sharpen focus and mental clarity.
- Use: In a glass of warm water or milk, add Shilajit Solid and consume it for maximum benefits.
- Who It Is Best For: Anyone who doesn't like messiness, add Shilajit Solid to your routine.


Shilajit Powder

Made by drying Shilajit, you need to blend it into a fine powder. This is for consumers who prefer taking the resin with food or as smoothies. Powdered Shilajit is processed, so this might weaken its potency a little bit.
- Benefits: Shilajit powder enhances energy, metabolic rate, and overall wellness.
- Use: It could be dissolved in beverages or food to be ingested easily. This powdered version also has a lot more flexibility when it comes to dosages.
- Who It Is Best For: This product is for the one who values convenience and does not mind a product that isn't as strong. This is also ideal for one who wants to blend Shilajit with foods or beverages.

Shilajit Supplement

The most convenient form is as a capsule or tablet. Most of them are combined with other Ayurvedic herbs to increase their potency. However, be aware that some have lower concentrations of Shilajit or added fillers.
- Benefits: Capsules and tablets contain the benefits of Shilajit such as energy, stamina and immune support.
- Use: Consume the capsule or tablet with a glass of water. It is a convenient way to include it in your daily life.
- Who It Is Best For: Capsules and tablets are the perfect product for a busy life and for those who don't like taste or smell.

Which Form Is Best Of Shilajit?

Each type of Shilajit has different benefits, so choose what suits your specific needs and preferences to know what might be best. If one seeks the highest potency, usually resin form is preferred since this contains less processing. If you are too busy or don't have extra time to prepare or clean up afterward, go for Shilajit capsules or tablets. For convenience in terms of flexibility, opt for Shilajit powder.

Conclusion

Looking to improve vigour and vitality? Shilajit is a natural supplement that can easily fit into your lifestyle. For maximum benefits, follow a balanced diet and exercise regularly.
