Amid a world dominated by pharmaceuticals, more people are choosing to take charge of their health naturally. Supplements like shilajit present a holistic alternative to conventional health management.

Shilajit is a time-honored adaptogenic supplement thought to support the body in handling stress and restoring balance. Its potential benefits include enhanced immune function, increased energy, and improved well-being. Polar Performance ensures that only premium-quality shilajit resin is used, placing customer health and product integrity at the forefront.

 

Getting to know Shilajit

The name "shilajit" originates from Sanskrit, meaning "conqueror of mountain." This organic mineral pitch is found in mountainous regions like the Himalayas, Russia, and Southern Peru, and is also known as mumijo, mumlayi, or mumie.

True shilajit is rare, requiring specific natural conditions and centuries of gradual decomposition of plant material, aided by microorganisms, to develop its beneficial properties. The mineral pitch is rich in compounds like fulvic acid, humic acid, and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and sodium.

 

Shilajit is available in various forms:

  • Powdered Shilajit: Often in capsule form, it’s convenient and can be mixed into drinks.
  • Shilajit Extract: A liquid form commonly used as a tincture or added to beverages.
  • Shilajit Resin: The most traditional form, this semi-liquid shilajit is usually dissolved in a drink.

Polar Performance sources its shilajit from raw mumie, processed with advanced equipment to create high-quality resin using a patented method for optimal purity and potency.

Shilajit Safe Usage & Recommended Dosage

Like any supplement, safe and effective use of shilajit is essential. Factors such as product type, age, and individual health can influence its benefits. Dosage may vary for each person, so consulting a healthcare professional is recommended for personalized guidance.

 

Dosage Considerations

    Age: The recommended dosage for adults ranges from 300 to 500 mg, taken up to twice daily. Older individuals may require a lower dose and still experience benefits. Children should use a smaller dose, typically 50 to 100 mg.

    Height/Weight: Those with a larger body mass may need a higher dose to achieve optimal effects.

    Medications & Supplements: While there’s limited evidence on potential interactions between shilajit and medications, it’s advisable to consult a healthcare provider for personalized dosage recommendations, as more research is needed to understand possible interactions and side effects.

    Health: A person’s overall health can influence the appropriate dosage. Individuals with pre-existing health conditions should speak to a healthcare professional before beginning shilajit supplementation.


    Important Dosage Information

    For questions about dosage or use, consider consulting a naturopathic doctor or an Ayurvedic medicine practitioner. A naturopathic doctor is a licensed healthcare professional trained in accredited naturopathic medical schools. They focus on diagnosing, preventing, and treating both acute and chronic conditions by supporting the body’s natural healing processes. They address barriers to health using therapies such as homeopathy, vitamins, lifestyle adjustments, dietary changes, and herbal remedies.

    If you're currently taking prescription medications or other supplements, it’s important to check with your healthcare provider before starting shilajit to ensure there are no potential interactions.

    For accurate dosing, use the Polar Performance scooping instrument instead of a regular teaspoon. A recommended dose of Primal Shilajit is roughly the size of a pea.


    HOW TO USE SHILAJIT

    • Start with a small dose, approximately the size of a grain of rice or a pea (about 100-200 mg).
    • Gradually increase the dosage as your body adapts, up to 300-500 mg daily. It's recommended to take Shilajit in cycles: 4-6 weeks of use followed by a 2-week  Break.

     

    HOW TO CONSUME

    • Straight In (PRIMAL) : Insert Spoon directly into your mouth with desired amount of shilajit.
    • With Water: Dissolve the recommended dose of Shilajit in a glass of warm water. Stir well & drink it on an empty stomach for best absorption.
    • With Milk: Mix Shilajit into a cup of warm milk, particularly beneficial in the morning or before bed to enhance energy or promote relaxation.
    • With Honey: For a sweeter taste, blend Shilajit with a teaspoon of honey. This method is great if you prefer a more palatable option.
