About Shilajit

Shilajit

Shilajit, which can also be considered the greatest gift of the nature to the humanity. It is one of the medicinal mineral that comes with innumerable properties. Shilajit, precisely a mineral substance that is extracted from the Himalayan regions has been in use from the time immemorial as a cure of many ailments.

Shilajit is originally a rock extract which is also known as ‘mineral oil’, ‘stone oil’ or ‘rock sweet’. After extraction of it from the rocks, the thing that we get is black-brown paste like substance. Shilajit constitutes various minerals and amino acids.

Due to its vast usage and properties, Shilajit is available in the market in medicinal form. Because of its increasing demand, Shilajit is sold by various manufacturers but there have been time when the consumers have complained about the non-effectiveness of the product. In many cases, the suppliers have been selling the degraded material.

One must know that Shilajit is one rarest mineral in the world and finding a pure form of Shilajit requires a lot more information about it. But there is no need to worry, for there are some ways by which we can find we can find out the authenticity of Shilajit.

Here are some purity tests, following which you can differentiate real ones from the adulterated one:

  1. Pure Shilajit even if its low grade one melts on hand and becomes really sticky. Similarly, if you place it in the refrigerator, it gets hard and shattered when struck with hammer.
  2. It is a very soluble mineral, it’s easily gets dissolved in warm water or milk and creates and created golden black or reddish liquid.
  3. Shilajit is inflammable. It does not burn with fire. Try to heat Shilajit with a mini blow torch and it will produce ash.
  4. Companies that sell Shilajit in total powered form should be doubted in first place. Most of the Shilajit products that are available in the market are present in the powered form.

Having said all these, there are people who can trick you even with the entire above characteristics. I wish that next time you end up purchasing pure Shilajit otherwise this article is there to your rescue.
