Shilajit has numerous potential health benefits, mainly due to its high concentration of fulvic acid and other minerals.

Potential health benefits of shilajit include:

Bone strengthening properties. Research indicates that shilajit may promote collagen production, improve bone formation and help in the healing of bone fractures.
Anti-inflammatory effects, fulvic acid is shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect on the body by reducing the release of proinflammatory markers.
Improved exercise performance. Research suggests shilajit supplementation can improve maximal muscular strength retention following a physically fatiguing task.
Cognitive health. Shilajit’s main component of fulvic acid has antioxidant properties that may enhance memory, potentially inhibiting the accumulation of excessive tau protein, a factor associated with Alzheimer’s Disease.
Shilajit is also often prescribed by holistic practitioners to treat anemia, cognitive decline associated with aging, diabetes, pain and more.
