Susie Who | Shilajit

Shilajit's effectiveness stems from various mechanisms observed in both humans and animals. It boosts ATP levels, activates mitochondrial respiration, enhances calcium ion transport, and contains compounds like dibenzo-alpha-pyrones (DBPs) that protect brain tissue and increase acetylcholine levels.

ATP, known as the energy currency of cells, is crucial for various bodily functions like muscle contraction and nerve impulse propagation. Studies show that shilajit supplementation increases ATP levels in muscles, brain, and blood, improving energy production and exercise performance.

Benefits:

• It is incorporated into pharmaceutical drugs and has shown antimicrobial properties against various bacteria, reducing treatment periods for conditions like pulmonary tuberculosis.
• Shilajit promotes faster healing of injuries, burns, and bone fractures in animals and humans, and has anti-inflammatory effects in gum disease, arthritis, and ulcers.
•  Compounds in shilajit contribute to its anti-inflammatory properties.
• Shilajit stimulates lymphocyte production, improves memory and cognitive function, and may act as a painkiller and tolerance inhibitor.
• Compounds in shilajit enhance immune function and may improve the body's utilisation of nutrients.
• Studies suggest shilajit may increase sperm count, motility, and hormone levels in men.
