I have several requests to talk about shilajit, but never found it important enough so here is a short article on this topic.
Shilajit is a sticky substance found primarily in the rocks of some mountains. It develops over centuries from the slow decomposition of plants.
I have explained how plants produce strong acids that melt a rock, they liquify it and absorb the minerals. We call them humic acids.
Supplement pushers promote them as the only way, other than eating vegetables, to load on minerals because as they explain, minerals to be able to be absorbed into the blood have to be bioactive, and this means prepared for absorption through plants.
It is easy to debunk this nonsensical theory since as soon as you ingest sea salt, you will find out that your urine has become very salty. The body does not have any problem with the absorption of sedimented minerals.
There is absolutely not any other benefit when taking humic acids other than the available mineral content, and the mineral variety is limited by the availability of the minerals in the soil the plant has absorbed.
Sea salt has a way larger mineral variety since it contains minerals from the entire planet.
Sea currents move seawater around and it mixes minerals from different regions. This is why I recommend sea salt from circulating sea and not from the closed sea like the Dead Sea or salty lake.
When we are talking about shilajit, we are talking about concentrated humic acids.
There is a decomposition of plants going on within the mountain and the concentrated humic acid/shilajit is oozing out.
On top of this, there could be a presence of toxic elements from the surrounding area, overloaded with heavy metals and decay enzymes which can be toxic to the human body.
Since shilajit contains some minerals, it will improve the ionic state of the blood but has to be used with water so that the body can properly calibrate the ionic state of the blood and raise its plasma level.
If you take enough shilajite and an adequate amount of water, you will trigger a detox of the blood causing nausea, diarrhea, and skin inflammation if the blood was very toxic, but because very few understand the blood cleansing process, a warning is issued that if such symptoms occur, stop using shilajit because you are poisoning yourself.
All kinds of benefits are attached to this supplement claiming that shilajit is beneficial in curing or improving diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Iron deficiency anemia, infertility, high altitude sickness, heart disease, reverse aging…
These are mostly lies and only sales pitches, especially when we realize that it is all based on plants and this is exactly what the supplement industry thrives on.
On top of this, if improvement in blood hydration is achieved and the body goes into a detox, people are warned to immediately stop using this expensive product because it shows symptoms of blood poisoning.
It is way better and much less expensive to use sea salt or seawater instead of shilajite and follow the SHP. At least you get to learn the truth and help your body to cleanse and heal itself.
Unless we allow the truth to sink in, we have no chance of healing ourselves.
Many people that have started to follow the SHP have abandoned it as soon as they spoke to a medical expert especially if the expert is family related. “Why would they lie to me” is what I hear.
How many well-meaning mothers had their children vaccinated?
Brainwashing creates casualties. Keep away from the indoctrinated science, observe, think, and act on the new information. You have nothing to lose and much to gain.
Experiment yourself. Only through experience do we learn the truth.
By following the SHP you will gain your experience and become empowered to help others.
Love and light to us all
