The Search for Genuine Shilajit

At Sulaiman Aftabi, we’ve been crafting authentic Himalayan Shilajit since 1970. With over five decades of experience, we pride ourselves on providing our customers with pure, handcrafted Shilajit that delivers on its promises. To help you make an informed decision, we’re sharing what we’ve learned about identifying genuine Shilajit and why it matters for your health.

1. Himalayan Shilajit Stands Above the Rest

Not all Shilajit is created equal. Himalayan Shilajit is far superior to its Mexican Mumijo or Siberian/Russian counterparts. The altitude where Shilajit forms plays a significant role in its potency. Himalayan regions, with their pristine ecosystems and high altitudes, provide the ideal conditions for producing the most nutrient-dense Shilajit.

2. The Crafting Process Matters

At Sulaiman Aftabi, we stay true to the traditional methods that have been passed down for generations. Genuine Shilajit undergoes multiple filtration levels (15-20 times) using specific techniques to ensure purity. We then sun-dry it over 45-60 days, preserving its delicate balance of trace minerals and bioactive compounds. Many commercial brands skip these steps, compromising quality and potency.

3. Resin is the Most Potent Form

If you’re looking for the best form of Shilajit, opt for resin. Pure Shilajit resin changes consistency with the weather—hardening in winter and softening in warmer months. To restore its pliability, just add a few drops of water. Powder or capsule forms often include fillers or additives, which dilute its natural potency. At Sulaiman Aftabi, we offer only pure, handcrafted resin.

4. Beware of Misleading Fulvic Acid Claims

Authentic Shilajit does not boast exaggerated claims of 50-90% Fulvic Acid. Remember, Shilajit is extracted from rock formations, and each batch naturally varies in its composition. Brands claiming such high percentages often add synthetic Fulvic Acid or other fillers. If it’s 90% Fulvic Acid, what happens to the other trace minerals? The math simply doesn’t add up.

5. Sun-Dried Shilajit Retains Its Potency

Large-scale commercial brands often heat-dry or vacuum-dry their Shilajit to speed up production. Unfortunately, these methods can destroy the delicate trace minerals that make Shilajit so powerful. At Sulaiman Aftabi, we stick to sun-drying—a process that ensures the potency of every jar we sell.

6. Price Reflects Quality

Quality Shilajit is never cheap. If you find a product priced below $50 an ounce, it’s likely unfiltered, contains additives, or worse, heavy metals. Investing in authentic Shilajit ensures you’re getting the purest, most effective product. Our Shilajit is competitively priced to reflect its exceptional quality.

7. Always Check Lab Reports

At Sulaiman Aftabi, transparency is key. We provide the latest lab reports for every batch of Shilajit we produce. Focus on the levels of arsenic, lead, cadmium, and mercury—excessive amounts indicate a poorly processed product. With us, you can trust that your Shilajit is safe, pure, and lab-tested.

8. Reverse Image Search

Here’s a trick: conduct a reverse image search on product photos. Many synthetic or low-quality Shilajit products can be found listed on wholesale platforms like Alibaba, revealing their true origins. At Sulaiman Aftabi, we produce our Shilajit in-house, ensuring complete control over quality.

9. Long-Term Benefits, Not a Quick Fix

Shilajit isn’t a magic bullet, but its benefits are profound and long-lasting. While you may experience an immediate energy boost for workouts, runs, or intimacy, its true value lies in consistent use. Shilajit supports balanced hormones, mental health, reduced stress and anxiety, improved heart health, muscle and joint relief, and even blood pressure regulation. As a natural vasodilator, it’s a powerhouse for overall well-being.
