Shilajit has been known and used as a rejuvenator and anti-aging compound by Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. It is used to increase levels of testosterone in men, and helps to regulate the menstrual cycle in women. It has overall reproductive health benefits for men and women by oxygenating the reproductive organs while removing chemicals and toxins from the blood that can lead to increasing good cholesterol while reducing triglycerides and bad cholesterol. Shilajit is also known as a catalyst and is said to greatly enhance the absorption and bioavailability of nutrients in the body.* This assists the body in essential functions like carbohydrate metabolism, calcium absorption, blood sugar regulation as well as assists with brain and nerve function.
Shilajit is legendary in the East and extensively mentioned in the Kama Sutra and other classical Indian texts. Shilajit is perhaps best known for its ability to boost testosterone and promote male reproductive health.* While it contains no hormones itself, it possesses a broad range of nutrients that target the male endocrine (hormone) system to bring about positively powerful change.* Modern scientific research has validated this millennia-old claim.
+ In one 90-day clinical trial, 200 mg of PrimaVie® shilajit was shown to increase male sperm count by 61.4% and serum testosterone levels by 23.5%.* (Biswas et al. 2009)
+ In another 90-day, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, 500 mg of PrimaVie® shilajit was shown to increase total testosterone by 20% and free testosterone by 19%.* (Pandit et al. 2015)
Youtheory Mens Shilajit features PrimaVie®: a genuine shilajit that is considered the best in the marketplace. This patent-protected, clinically studied and ultra-purified form of shilajit is harvested from the high-altitude regions of the Indian Himalayas. It is carefully sourced, prepared and standardized to a minimum 50% fulvic acid to ensure maximum efficacy. Fulvic acid (not to be confused with folic acid) is one of the most biologically-active compounds in soil. It is widely regarded (by scientists and farmers alike) as the most important element in healthy fertile topsoil. Fulvic acid is the end-product of nature's decomposition process and is formed by microbial degradation of once-living matter, mostly plants. Fulvic acid serves numerous roles in plant science but has three primary functions: 1) to dissolve and transform rocks into "ionic" minerals that are usable by plants, animals and humans 2) to bind and form complexes with a wide range of soil nutrients 3) to carry nutrients from plant surfaces into plant tissues. One molecule of fulvic acid is capable of binding over 60 trace elements at one time (including vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytochemicals and more). And due to its incredibly small size, it can easily penetrate cell walls to deliver micro-nourishment to a plant's metabolic centers (to improve growth and development). Fulvic acid is believed to account for many of the unique health properties of shilajit. Interestingly, fulvic acid may help explain why shilajit is traditionally categorized as an "anupana" in Ayurveda (meaning a "vehicle" or "carrier" in Ayurvedic terminology). As an †œanupana,† shilajit is said to greatly enhance the absorption and bioavailability of nutrients in the body and to act as a catalytic agent to promote the energetic effect of food compounds within living cells.
