What is Nutricost Shilajit?
Shilajit, listed on the label as asphaltum, is a mineral-rich ingredient traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice. Nutricost describes this product as high potency, with a concentrated dose of the traditional ingredient and naturally occurring fulvic acid. It is made and quality tested in the UK with globally sourced ingredients. If you are comparing shilajit capsules by value, 120 capsules and 60 servings per bottle give you plenty to work with.

Other ingredients are a hypromellose (cellulose) capsule, dicalcium phosphate, magnesium stearate (vegetable source) and silica. Please check the label on your bottle if you have any allergies or dietary requirements.
How it can fit into your routine
The suggested use is 2 capsules daily with 8 to 12 oz of water, or as directed by your healthcare professional. A set time each day, such as with breakfast, helps the habit stick. At that amount, one bottle lasts around two months. For a similar 1,000 mg serving, you can compare Primaforce Shilajit and Bio Nutrition Shilajit. Checking the extract ratio and fulvic acid percentage on each label is the easiest way to compare strength fairly.
Suggested use
As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules daily with 8 to 12 oz of water or as directed by your healthcare professional.
