I bought some of this a while back but haven’t got around to introducing it to my husband’s stack yet. Maybe I will give it a go tomorrow!

"Shilajit is formed from organic materials found between the layers of rock making it an exceptional substance. When these materials get compressed over hundreds or thousands of years, they produce shilajit. During the summertime, you can find the biomass oozing out of the deep fissures of the rocks in the Himalayas."

MMMMMMM sounds tasty

Organic materials ? well that could be anything from moss to dead Yetis . Reminds me of the cottage I rented with the old outhouse on the top of the rock hill. That was an exceptional substance also so based on the definition that will be shilajit too someday.

These posts are getting to be a lot of fun.

This is obtained from a mountain 200 km away from my home. People here use it as a libido and energy enhancer. It also strengthen muscles. I have got a few grams but not used as yet

A major active component of shilajit is fulvic acid which has potent anti-inflammatory and radical scavenging properties along with memory boosting potential. Shilajit also contains minerals such as strontium, silicon, calcium and, manganese. I would say a bone builder among other things with over an over 80 mineral content.

Purity

Be aware that shilajit may contain impurities, depending on the country of origin, standards of health and regulations in that country, and training and professionalism of those preparing the herbal remedies. Some Ayurvedic herbs have been found to contain high levels of heavy metals, according to Health Canada and Medical News Today, warning that shilajit capsules manufactured by Dabur India Ltd. contain high amounts of lead and mercury, and in some cases, arsenic.

Shilajit should not be taken in raw or unprocessed form, warns the "International Journal of Ayurveda Research," as it may contain fungus growth such as Aspergillus niger and Trichothecium roseum. Some forms of shilajit may also contain high levels of free radicals, which could damage cells and cellular structures in the body.

You are a gem. I’ve learnt so much from these links. Driving the neurologist mad I reckon, but he loves us and has a very open mind (and an open door).

Well hubby has been taking the Jarrow one this week and seems a little better but he also has been taking l-carnosine for a couple of weeks and I’ve started him back on tru niagen too.

I’ve also knocked back his mirtazapine by a mg to 3mg.

Who knows which has had the effect, or maybe it is just because we are heading into spring.

He is getting up in the morning again, and going for a walk with the dog and he stopped doing that mid May so this is a positive change.
