NutroTonic (855-948-0008) has released a new guide on how to identify signs of lower-quality or fake shilajit products.
-- The company has published its latest guide in response to the growing number of counterfeit shilajit products on the market. The guide covers key indications of genuine shilajit, and it also outlines simple tests that can be performed to verify product authenticity using common household items.

Shilajit is a substance that is exuded by rocks high in the Himalayas, Altai Mountains, and other mountain ranges. It forms when organic plant matter is subjected to compression by the surrounding rocks and processed by microbial metabolites. NutroTonic’s guide says that the result is a complex organic substance that can only be harvested during the summer months, when warmer temperatures soften it enough to allow it to ooze from rock formations.
Historically, shilajit has been used in traditional Ayurvedic and Siddha medicine, where it was believed to improve vitality and longevity. Modern research indicates that it has high concentrations of fulvic acid, humic acid, and minerals, and many scientists are beginning to study its adaptogenic properties, as well as its applications in brain and immune function. However, the growing popularity of shilajit products has led to an influx of counterfeits, which NutroTonic’s guide says can be dangerous due to potentially high levels of heavy metals and other contaminants.
According to the guide, there are many indications of lower-quality products that consumers can watch for. For example, pure, authentic shilajit will be dark brown or black and sport a glossy, tar-like texture, whereas counterfeits often look dull. Consumers can also verify the authenticity of shilajit with a solubility test, as genuine shilajit will dissolve completely in water, but fake shilajit will sediment.
Additionally, NutroTonic’s guide says that shilajit must be packaged properly to preserve its potency; flimsy or see-through packaging is therefore a likely indication that the product is fake. Because pricing reflects the costs of harvesting and purifying the substance, a suspiciously low price also suggests that the shilajit is of lower quality and has not been rigorously tested. Finally, NutroTonic says that readers can sample any shilajit products they buy to test for authenticity, as genuine shilajit will have an earthy, bitter taste due to its composition - a property that simulants lack.
