Shilajit - medicinal properties and 7 recipes for beauty and health

Any healing substance, any medicine has its own characteristics of use, but each of them has a universal rule - rule of measure. Sometimes poison is useful in moderation, but even the most useful substance, as you and I know, becomes poison if used without moderation.

Shilajit has a huge list of useful properties, but, in fact, does not have any contraindications . Despite the fact that many estonians give different information, you can be sure that mumiyo in fact has no clear contraindications for use.

Composition of mummy tablets

The main component of mummy tablets is a natural mixture known as mountain resin, which contains many valuable substances. It is very important to buy a high-quality product; when choosing, you need to pay attention to the balsamic smell, strong bitter taste, the product melts in your hands after a couple of minutes and dissolves in water.

The healing properties of mumiyo are formed by its main composition:

• fulvic acids – enhance metabolic processes;
• amino acids – promote the absorption of nutrients;
• acids – work as antiseptics, remove decay products, neutralize the effects of free radicals, and are responsible for carbohydrate metabolism;
• albumins – improve plasma, cleanse the blood;
• resins, wax, gum - normalize digestion and protect the mucous membrane.

How is it formed

I have already mentioned that scientists have not yet been able to establish exactly how this substance is formed, although many have long wondered what it is and why it has such a beneficial effect on the human body.

There are no exact answers yet, but there are several plausible theories:

• biological - medicinal plants grow in the mountains, which insects feed on. They, in turn, become victims of bats living in caves. Passing through their digestive tract, useful substances are processed and fermented; the excrement of these flyers is additionally degenerated under the influence of the special microclimate of mountain voids. As a result, mumiyo is obtained. This version is supported by the fact that the product is mainly found near caves;
• mineral - under the influence of microorganisms, minerals soften and turn into resin;
• waxy - the product is formed through the efforts of wild bees and mountain climate;
• cadaveric - the substance is formed as a result of the natural mummification of animal corpses (in my opinion, the theory about bats would be more pleasant!);
• lichen - medicine is produced by lichens.

In my opinion, it doesn’t matter which version turns out to be correct, the main thing is that the product is really capable of healing, and it would be stupid not to take advantage of this.
