How do I consume Shilajit resin?

Who should avoid Shilajit?

Pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with medical conditions, or those taking prescription medication should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Does Shilajit have side effects?

Shilajit is generally well tolerated. Some users may experience mild detox effects initially, such as digestive changes or increased energy.
