When using shilajit resin, a traditional Ayurvedic supplement, consistency and method matter for effectiveness. Start with a small, pea-sized amount—roughly 100-200 mg. Precision can be tricky with resin’s sticky nature, so a tiny scoop or a flat tool like a spatula can help measure this amount. Dissolve it in warm water, milk, or plant-based milk alternative. Ensure the liquid is warm but not hot, as excessive heat might degrade the potency.
Stirring may require patience, since resin sometimes needs a moment to fully dissolve. If sticky residue remains, try warming the liquid further or breaking the resin apart with your fingers before adding it in. Adding it to smoothies is fine, but remember temperature’s affect in potency — let it cool a bit or add in as you serve to keep the benefits intact.
Dosage typically ranges between once to twice daily, based on needs. Morning intake can support energy and metabolism through the day, while evening consumption might assist in muscle soreness and recovery post-exercise. Always start with once daily and observe effects, adjusting as needed.
In Siddha-Ayurveda view, shilajit works by supporting ojas (vital energy), digestion (agni), and balancing Vata dosha, which may aid your energy and digestion issues. Effects vary, generally building over weeks. Expect energy boost, muscle recovery improvement, digestion ease over time, not instantly.
The key is integrating within lifestyle slowly, noting effects on body and mind. Avoid exceeding doses — balance and moderation are crucial in Ayurveda. If considering Shilajit long term or alongside medications, consulting a healthcare provider may be wise.
