Description
Vitamatic Shilajit Complex is a multi-herb capsule that combines shilajit and ashwagandha with rhodiola, ginseng, cordyceps mushroom, ginkgo biloba, stinging nettle and turmeric. Each vegetarian capsule provides 300 mg of 30:1 shilajit extract, and a bottle holds 120 capsules, so it works as a long-lasting, once-daily option.
What is a shilajit complex?
Shilajit is a mineral-rich resin used traditionally in Ayurvedic practice. A complex means it is blended with other herbs rather than taken on its own. In this formula, the shilajit and ashwagandha are joined by several well-known botanicals. Ashwagandha, rhodiola and ginseng are often grouped as adaptogens, a term our guide to adaptogens explains in plain language.
Key features

- 25 mg each of stinging nettle root (10:1) and turmeric (20:1)

Ingredients
Each capsule contains the extracts listed above. Other ingredients are hypromellose (cellulose capsule), rice flour, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide. The label states it is free of sugar, yeast, soy, wheat, egg, artificial colours, flavours and preservatives. 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 1 capsule daily with 8 to 12 oz of water or as directed by your healthcare provider. Because it contains several herbs, check the label amounts against any other supplements you take, especially if you already use a separate ashwagandha supplement. If you prefer a single-focus shilajit, you could compare it with Codeage Liposomal Himalayan Shilajit+, which pairs shilajit with ashwagandha and CoQ10, or a simpler capsule such as Solaray Men's Shilajit.
Suggested use
As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule daily with 8 to 12 oz of water or as directed by your healthcare provider.
