What Is Shilajit?
Shilajit (also spelled Salajeet in Urdu) is a natural mineral resin formed over centuries in mountain rock. It is found in the Himalayas, Karakoram, and Hindukush ranges. It forms when organic matter is compressed under rocks for hundreds of years, creating a nutrient-rich sticky substance.
