Shilajit and Ayurvedic Applications
Shilajit is a black, tar-like substance that is found in the mountains of the Himalayas and other parts of Asia. It is composed of plant matter that has been subjected to extreme pressure and heat over millions of years, and is believed to have a range of medicinal properties. In Ayurveda, a traditional system of medicine that originated in India, shilajit is used to treat a variety of health conditions and is considered a "rasayana," or rejuvenating substance.
