All the benefits of Shilajit. None of the taste.

Shilajit is one of the most ancient and well-documented substances in Ayurvedic medicine - used for over 3,000 years across the Himalayas, Central Asia and Tibet as what practitioners called a rasayana: a rejuvenating compound valued for longevity, vitality, and physical and mental performance. Western science has been catching up steadily, and the research base is now compelling.

These capsules from Feel Supreme deliver 400mg of Himalayan Shilajit per capsule in a convenient, taste-free format. No preparation, no earthy flavour, just the substance itself. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

What Shilajit actually is

Shilajit forms over centuries through the slow decomposition of plant and organic matter compressed between mountain rocks at high altitude. The result is a mineral-dense resin primarily composed of fulvic acid - a bioactive compound with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and nutrient-transport properties - alongside humic acid and over 80 trace minerals in ionic form, meaning they're highly bioavailable and readily absorbed by the body.

What the research shows

Cellular energy and mitochondrial function - shilajit's dibenzo-α-pyrones support ATP production at the mitochondrial level, the body's primary energy currency. This is the mechanism most associated with reduced fatigue and improved stamina, and why shilajit has historically been used by athletes and high-altitude communities for endurance.

Cognitive health and neuroprotection - fulvic acid has been shown to inhibit the aggregation of tau proteins, the mechanism closely linked to Alzheimer's disease progression. Research describes it as a promising compound for supporting long-term brain health and mental clarity.

Testosterone and male vitality - a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in men aged 45-55 found significant increases in total and free testosterone after 90 days of Shilajit supplementation compared to placebo. Sperm count and motility improvements were also recorded.

Beyond these core areas, the trace mineral profile supports immune function, bone density, mood regulation, and general recovery - making Shilajit one of the more genuinely broad-spectrum supplements available.

Capsules vs resin - which is right for you?

Both products come from Feel Supreme and deliver the same core Shilajit benefits. The key difference is source and form: these capsules use Himalayan Shilajit, while our Altai Shilajit Resin is sourced from the Altai Mountains in Mongolia - a distinct source with independently verified fulvic acid levels. The resin is the more traditional format and offers more flexibility on dosing; capsules are simpler, portable, and better for those new to Shilajit or who prefer a no-fuss daily supplement.
