Shilajit is a naturally occurring exudate that originates from mountainous regions in South, Central, and West Asia, mainly the Himalayas, the Pamir Mountains, and the Altai Mountains. It is formed from microbial activity on gradually decomposing plant matter wedged between rocks, a process that can take centuries. In its raw form, it is often harvested and used as an ingredient in traditional Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Tibetan folk remedies, and due to recent research on its properties, it has gained the attention of many natural health enthusiasts around the world.
Currently, scientists have noted high levels of fulvic acid, trace minerals, antioxidants, essential acids, and amino acids present in fresh shilajit. On the other hand, many studies have also observed that raw, unprocessed material tends to contain heavy metals, including lead, mercury, and arsenic. NutroTonic’s guide says that this is because the rock formations that house shilajit deposits often have trace amounts of these metals, and worries over contamination are therefore founded.
However, the company says that consumers interested in introducing shilajit into their diet can avoid heavy metal consumption by ensuring they choose authentic products that have been purified extensively. According to the guide, low-quality or counterfeit shilajit are often not properly filtered and may indeed contain dangerous levels of contaminants, but trusted brands will use advanced nanofiltration technology to reduce heavy metal levels to negligible amounts. NutroTonic also notes that reputable vendors are transparent about testing, and many will provide the public with access to detailed lab results.
Additionally, the company’s guide says that consumers can avoid further contamination by choosing shilajit that has been harvested from remote locations and extracted via chemical-free processes. Typically, the cleanest sources are found at elevations of 17,000 feet and above, and trustworthy companies will often use water-based extraction methods to procure the ingredient.
