    I'm a Thai boxer and mma practitioner, the benefits I noticed after taking shilajit were :
    1- Extra energy / Endurance / Cardiovascular strength
    2- Deeper voice
    3- Mental clarity
    4- healthier skin
    5- Packed libido / more sexual drive
    6- More aggressive / I meditate to bring that down
    7- More straight forward with people / Less social anxiety
    8- Stomach feels great / earthed / cored
    Shilajit is great!

    4:27 Doctor, this was very helpful and enlightening. Thank you. My mother is 82 years old and has (like we all do as we age) shown evidence of memory loss. I also think that the anti-osteoporosis and anti-inflammatory benefits are very intriguing. Realizing the research hasn’t really been done on humans and not asking you for medical advice, my instinct is to get her on SJ gummies as part of her daily diet. However, I worry about the increased testosterone effects on women. I saw research that showed it very much increases testosterone levels in men. Again not asking for medical advice, but to the pros outweigh the cons? I would love to get something that shows the benefits like this mineral composite does, but I do worry about negative side effects due to endocrine system disruption or unbalanced

    • @JessicaNortonND
      @JessicaNortonND  Před 4 měsíci

      Oh this is a good question. I’ve not seen a negative impact in the few post menopausal women that I have taking it, but that being said they are getting hormone levels monitored regularly. Let me take a look at the research again but I don’t remember seeing anything about this in women in the studies. I think it would worth addressing it with her doc as well.

    After having that massive positive effect from Rhodiola, I have decided to also try shilajit. Perhaps those two could be rotated?

I picked a brand out of the hundreds for sale. All could vary in quality. If you want to know the name ask me. if it’s not in your budget understand, $45 for 300 servings. Gym 10 plus hours a week testosterone is up definitely I’m 65. so younger people might not feel the energy booster I’ve experienced. At first was hoping it could replace the colloidal minerals I take. It did. I’m not a salesman. I’m an adrenaline seeker who pushes for another set on the weights. Gets it for me.
