Shilajit (pronounced “shee-la-jeet”) is one of the great wonders of Ayurveda (the traditional health system of India and the sister science of yoga). It is not an herb but a special type of “mineral pitch” that seeps from cracks in the Himalayan rocks during the warm summer months. This black gummy-resin is a complex mixture of humus (prehistoric plant deposits), rock minerals and organic substances that have been combined/compressed/transformed into an extraordinary superfood known to boost testosterone.* Shilajit is said to carry the power of the Himalayas and is considered by some scholars to be “Soma” (the secret substance used by Eastern alchemists to perfect the body and mind). True authentic shilajit is hard to come by and can be quite expensive. But the real thing only requires small doses to enliven your physiology.*

Youtheory Shilajit features PrimaVie^®: a genuine shilajit that is considered the best in the marketplace. This patent-protected, clinically studied and ultra-purified form of shilajit is harvested from the high-altitude regions of the Indian Himalayas. It is carefully sourced, prepared and standardized to a minimum 50% fulvic acid to ensure maximum efficacy.

Fulvic acid (not to be confused with folic acid) is one of the most biologically-active compounds in soil. It is widely regarded (by scientists and farmers alike) as the most important element in healthy fertile topsoil. Fulvic acid is the end-product of nature’s decomposition process and is formed by microbial degradation of once-living matter, mostly plants. Fulvic acid serves numerous roles in plant science but has three primary functions: 1) to dissolve and transform rocks into “ionic” minerals that are usable by plants, animals and humans, 2) to bind and form complexes with a wide range of soil nutrients, and 3) to carry nutrients from plant surfaces into plant tissues. One molecule of fulvic acid is capable of binding over 60 trace elements at one time (including vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytochemicals and more). And due to its incredibly small size, it can easily penetrate cell walls to deliver micro-nourishment to a plant’s metabolic centers (to improve growth and development). Fulvic acid is believed to account for many of the unique health properties of shilajit.* Interestingly, fulvic acid may help explain why shilajit is traditionally categorized as an “anupana” in Ayurveda (meaning a “vehicle” or “carrier” in Ayurvedic terminology). As an “anupana,” shilajit is said to greatly enhance the absorption and bioavailability of nutrients in the body and to act as a catalytic agent to promote the energetic effect of food compounds within living cells.*
