Shilajit is a rare and very expensive substance in the countries where it is found. It is said that “If Shilajit is cheap, it is not Shilajit”. In USA, the market is flooded with cheap Shilajit products that may not only not contain any amount of real Shilajit, but may actually be unsafe to consume. Therefore, it is essential to know what’s in your Shilajit.

We test every batch of our Shilajit at an ISO-17025 certified third-party laboratory in the USA. A sample from each batch goes through identification test, heavy metals test, microbiological contaminants test and aluminium test before it lands in our customer’s hands.

We use California proposition 65 standards for heavy metals as specifications for our test results. These are the strictest and most rigid standards of the naturally occurring heavy metals within USA and across the globe. It should be noted that in virtually every instance, the threshold amounts of these chemicals set by Prop 65 are 1/10th to 1/15th the levels set by international organizations and the US FDA. These amounts are so low that many healthy fruits and vegetables such as yams, turnips, apples, tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, green beans, lettuce, spinach, potatoes, corn and many other fruits and vegetables would not pass the Prop 65 guidelines. Since foods are exempted from Prop 65, they do not need to carry a warning label. However once a food or herb leaves its natural state it become subject to Prop 65 for good.
