Vedapure Premium Shilajit Extract Capsules Shilajit's origin lies in the ancient organic plant material preserved in the dark crevices of the Himalayan Mountains. As the sun warms up the mountain and melts the snow, a soft, heavy resin seeps out and is collected by local farmers. This thick resin is then dried and ground into a fine powder known as shilajit, meaning rock invincible in Sanskrit. It is high in iron with important nutrients like fulvic acid, calcium, selenium and magnesium. Vedapure Premium Shilajit powder is meticulously harvested by hand at high altitudes to ensure the purest product possible. It is then purified to remove any contaminants, low temperature dried and tested to be free of pollutants before being encapsulated in an organic, vegan-friendly capsule.
