Concerns about heavy metals in Shilajit have gained attention due to reports of contaminated Ayurveda products on the market. However, it’s important to understand that not all metals are harmful, and testing results should be interpreted within the proper context.

Shilajit is a natural mineral-rich substance containing over 80+ ionic minerals, making standard heavy metal tests misleading if not analyzed correctly. This article explains how to properly evaluate Shilajit purity, safety, and effectiveness based on lab results and key quality indicators.

The short answer is no. The presence of metals in Shilajit is natural and expected due to its complex mineral composition. What matters most is the type and concentration of these metals, as well as the purity and sourcing of the product.

The concerns about heavy metals originate from reports of low-quality Ayurveda products stored in aluminum containers or mixed with rancid agents. These contaminants do not reflect the true nature of properly sourced, high-grade Shilajit.

A heavy metal test alone is not an accurate measure of Shilajit’s quality. The true quality of Shilajit should be determined by:

✔ The Form & Texture – Pure Shilajit is soft and resinous, not overly dry or brittle.
✔ The Smell – High-quality Shilajit has a distinct, earthy aroma. If it smells like “cat urine”, it indicates poor storage or contamination.
✔ Lab-Verified Purity – Shilajit should be independently tested for harmful contaminants while maintaining its natural mineral profile.

We take product testing and safety seriously. Each batch of Shilajit undergoes a rigorous multi-stage testing process conducted by Sevan and his team over several years to ensure its effectiveness and purity.

Our commitment to quality includes:
✔ Third-party laboratory testing for heavy metals and microbiological contaminants.
✔ A comprehensive review of sourcing, processing, and packaging to ensure purity.
✔ Strict quality control—we would never offer a product that does not meet our high standards for safety and efficacy.

We are confident in the integrity of our Shilajit and have attached our latest third-party test results for full transparency.

Shilajit naturally contains a rich spectrum of minerals, and its heavy metal test results must be evaluated correctly. The true indicators of quality are its texture, smell, purity, and sourcing standards rather than a simple metal presence test.

Our third-party verified Shilajit has been thoroughly tested to ensure it meets the highest safety and effectiveness standards, providing you with a trusted and authentic product.
