Premium Shilajit Powder
In Ayurveda, shilajit is prized for its rejuvenating properties and has long been valued as a traditional restorative. In Sanskrit, its name means ‘invincible rock’, reflecting the traditional belief in its restorative qualities. In English, it is also known as mineral pitch.
Research and analysis show that shilajit contains triterpenes, fulvic acid and humic acids, as well as 85 different minerals and vitamins preserved in their ionic form. In ionic form, these minerals become readily active and available for use in the body on consumption. This product has a fulvic acid content of 1.25%.

Important information
Because shilajit contains a wide range of naturally occurring minerals and compounds, there is the potential for excessive intake of certain minerals, such as iron, particularly if you are already taking a daily supplement containing the same minerals. The iron content in this shilajit powder is 202mg/kg. Excessive iron intake can pose serious health risks. Always consult a healthcare professional before use and do not exceed the suggested dose.
Suggested use of Shilajit Powder:
Add to water, juice or a smoothie. Start with a small amount and increase gradually. Do not exceed the suggested daily dose.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is shilajit powder and how does it differ from shilajit resin?
Shilajit powder is processed from the raw resin, combined with a small amount of maltodextrin to prevent caking. Detox Trading’s powder contains a minimum of 80% shilajit, 1.25% fulvic acid and 85 ionic minerals. Shilajit pure resin is the raw, unprocessed form with a significantly higher fulvic acid content of 77.37%. The powder is easier to measure and mix into drinks; the resin is more concentrated and traditionally dissolved in warm water or milk.
What does shilajit powder contain?
Shilajit contains triterpenes, fulvic acid and humic acids, along with 85 minerals and vitamins preserved in their ionic form. Ionic minerals are readily bioavailable, becoming active in the body on consumption. This powder has a fulvic acid content of 1.25% and a naturally high iron content of 202mg/kg, which is important to be aware of if you are already supplementing with iron or a multivitamin.
Is shilajit powder suitable for everyone?
Not for everyone. Because shilajit contains many minerals, there is potential for toxic overload, particularly on iron, if taken alongside a supplement with overlapping mineral content. Always consult a medical professional before use. A nutrition consultation with the Detox Trading nutritionist is available for personalised guidance.
Which is the best form of shilajit to take?
The right format depends on your preference and goals. Shilajit powder is the most flexible, add it to water, juice or a smoothie. Shilajit pure resin is the raw, unprocessed form with a fulvic acid content of 77.37%, traditionally dissolved in warm water or milk. Shilajit capsules are the most convenient daily format, particularly for people who find the flavour difficult. Shilajit gummies combine shilajit with chaga, ashwagandha, vitamin D2 and B12 in a vegan, pectin-based format.
