Shilajit

Raw shilajit resin or powder is sold by weight, and its label gives an amount per daily dose. Capsules state an amount per portion of one or more capsules, which can be an extract or a fulvic acid complex. Gummies state an amount per portion of gummies. An extract and a raw resin are not the same material, so compare the printed milligrams together with the form named on the label.

Take the amount printed per portion, multiply it by the number of portions in the pack, and divide the pack price by that total expressed in units of 500 mg. For example, 90 capsules with 1,500 mg per three capsules contain 45,000 mg of the printed amount, which is 90 units of 500 mg. Check the net weight or capsule count and the portion on the label, because pack sizes differ between brands.

Check the product name, the form, the net weight or capsule count, the amount per portion, the directions and the warnings. Do not exceed the stated daily dose, and ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, under 18 or take medicines.
