One of my newest morning regimes is adding Shilajit to my morning water....
For thousands of years Shilajit has been used to help support:
- Energy
- Memory
- Mood
- Absorption of vital nutrients
- Enhanced potency and effectiveness of other nutrients
- Sharp intelligence
- Balanced blood sugar
- Efficient detoxification
- Optimal oxygenation and the body’s natural antioxidant response
"Shilajit is an exudate that is pressed out from layers of rock high Himalayan Mountains. About 200 million years ago, that land was a large island off the Australian coast separated from the Eurasian continent by the Tethys Sea. The Indian continent drifted north at a rate of about 30 ft a century, meeting the Asian continent about 40 to 50 million years ago. The sea bed pushed up, eventually forming the Himalayan Mountains, which continue to rise more than 1 cm a year today. During the ancient period the mineral rich, fertile soil of the sea bed gave rise to a lush and dense tropical jungle. As the ground continued to be pushed up, the plants were trapped by layers of rock and soil and remained preserved for thousands of years, gradually transforming into a rich organic mass that is food for new plant life. Due to microbial action and the tremendous pressure from the weight of the mountains, this hummus was transformed into a dense, viscous, mineral and Fulvic Acid rich mass. This is Shilajit. On a molecular level different cells need different nutrients to do their job of keeping the immune system strong and healthy cell reproduction. If cells don't do their job right, we would experience that as a form of disease or suffering including mental problems. Fortunately, and unfortunately the immune system does protect most of the elements from going into the cells that is why you can't just eat nutrients to be healthy, the immune system will deny it as a possible threat. The trick of Shilajit comes from organic component - Fulvic Acid. Fulvic Acid literally transforms minerals and other nutrients into minute molecules. By other words, it means that the immune system naturally allows Fulvic Acid to go through and carry all that minerals within. It is not only meant that all the minerals and nutrients Shilajit has would be accepted, but other vitamins and nutrients you regularly take would be more effective."
