What is vegan shilajit?
Shilajit is a resin-like substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice. This Jarrow Formulas product is a purified and standardised extract containing no less than 60% fulvic acid complex. The label describes it as supporting cellular energy production, and it is made in a vegan capsule with no animal-derived ingredients listed.

Ingredients
Each capsule contains Shilajit Fulvic Acid Complex 250 mg. Other ingredients are microcrystalline cellulose, a capsule made from hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and water, maltodextrin, magnesium stearate (vegetable source) and silicon dioxide. Please check the label on your bottle if you have any allergies or dietary requirements.
Flexible serving size
The label allows 1 capsule once or twice a day, so a 60 capsule bottle lasts between 30 and 60 days depending on how you take it. Jarrow Formulas states that this extract contains high levels of combined dibenzo-a-pyrones and dibenzo-a-pyrone chromoproteins, which are compounds found in shilajit and the reason the brand calls it a fulvic acid complex. If you are unsure which amount is right for you, ask your healthcare professional.
How it can fit into your routine
Because the serving is a single capsule, you can start with one a day and see how it suits your routine, or follow the label for up to two. Taking it with a meal is a simple way to make it a habit. If you are comparing PrimaVie capsules, you might also look at Solaray Men's Shilajit, which uses the same ingredient with a different serving size. For a different style of shilajit capsule, there is also the Swanson Shilajit Extract, which is standardised to 5% fulvic acid.
Suggested use
Adults take 1 capsule 1 to 2 times a day with a meal, or as directed by your qualified healthcare professional.
