Shilajit moomiyo is an adaptogenic herb which can be used to enhance physical and mental performance. Shilajit is believed to amplify the benefits of other herbs by enhancing their bio-availability. Shilajit is also believed to increase protein synthesis, growth rate and/or energy intake. Suitably, the nutritional composition can include a Shilajit material or extract which has been standardized to include or contain 10% humic acid and/or 10% fulvic acid. In accordance with certain other embodiments, the nutritional composition can alternatively and/or additionally contain fulvic acid, humic acid, and/or another botanical, natural, or herbal source of fulvic acid and/or humic acid. Shilajit plays an important part in boosting the energy metabolism process in the body.

Shilajit is perhaps the most potent rejuvenator and anti aging block buster ever known to mankind. Attributed with many magical properties Shilajit is found predominately in Himalayan region bordering India, China, Tibet and parts of central Asia.

The existence and use of Shilajit was a closely guarded secret of the Yogis of Himalayas for many centuries. The Indian Yogis considered Shilajit as God's gift and a nectar of longevity. Ancient Indian scriptures mention of the wonderful powers of Shilajit in tackling most of the ailments of body and mind.

Shilajit contains 85+ minerals in ionic form, Vitamins, Fulvic acid and very important phytonutrients. The fulvic acid in shilajit is in it's most natural and purest form. Fulvic acid is required to dilate the cell walls and transport the minerals deep into the cells. No amount of mineral supplements will be of any use unless they are transported into the cells. Minerals also act as catalysts in the assimilation of vitamins. Insufficient supply of minerals will also mean Vitamin deficiency. Fulvic acid alone can transport the minerals through the thick cell walls. Shilajit has 85+ minerals apart from fulvic acid and can instantly supply them to the cells. Shilajit can effectively prolong cell life and keep it healthy for a very long time. No wonder the Indian Yogis called Shilajit as Amrita or The Elixir Of Life.

Native shilajit is a blackish-brown exudation, of variable consistencies, obtained from steep rocks of different formations found in the Himalayas at altitudes between 1000-5000 m, from Arunachal Pradesh in the East, to Kashmir in the West. Shilajit also is found in other mountain ranges of the world, e.g. Afganisthan (Hindukush, Badakh-Shan), Australia (Northern Pollock Ranges), and in the former USSR (Tien-Shan, Pamir, Caucasus, Ural). Native shilajit is believed to arrest aging and also produce rejuvenation, two important attributes of an Ayurvedic rasayan medicine. Considerable controversy, however,
has existed in the literature concerning the nature and chemical character of shilajit. It has been variously described as a bitumen (asphalt), a mineral resin, a plant fossil, a substance of mixed plant and animal origin, or an inorganic substance. Generally, native shilajit contains two classes of organic compounds, namely, (a) humic substances and (b) non-humic organic metabolites. Humic substances are the major
organic constituents of native shilajit, present in an amount of about 80-85% therein, and have molecular weights ranging from several thousands for humic acids (HAs), and up to several million for polymeric humins (HMs), to only a few hundred for its fulvic acid (FAs) component. These substances also are found in soils and sediments distributed over the earth's surface, occurring in almost all terrestrial and aquatic environments. Humic substances are produced by the interactions of plants, algae, and mosses (bryophtes), with microorganisms, by a process known as humification. Humification of latex- and
resin-bearing plants is primarily responsible for the production of the water-soluble humic substances.

Methods and compositions relating to Alzheimer's disease are done by analyzing the proteins that are differentially expressed in the brain in the Alzheimer's disease state. These are very much different from the proteins in normal brain.

Dementia is one of the major public health problems of the geriatric population. But off late it seems to affecting even those in their thirties. Increasing numbers of patients with dementia are imposing a major financial burden on health systems around the world. More than half of the patients with dementia have Alzheimer's disease (AD). The prevalence and incidence of AD have been shown to increase exponentially. The prevalence for AD in Europe is 0.5% for ages 60-69 years, 4.2% for ages 70-79 years, and 13.8% for ages 80-89 years. The survival time after the onset of AD is approximately from 3 to 10 years. Death occurs as the brain cells are starved of the energy and nutrients.

Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia in older individuals, is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease for which there is no definitive cure as of now. It destroys the neurons in parts of the brain, chiefly the hippocampus, which is a region involved in coding memories. Alzheimer's disease gives rise to an irreversible progressive loss of cognitive functions and of functional autonomy. The earliest signs of AD may be mistaken for simple forgetfulness, but in those who are eventually diagnosed with the disease, these initial signs inexorably progress to more severe symptoms of mental deterioration. While the time it takes for AD to develop will vary from person to person, advanced signs include severe memory impairment, confusion, language disturbances, personality and behavior changes, and impaired judgement. Persons with AD may become non-communicative and hostile. As the disease ends its course in profound dementia, patients are unable to care for themselves and often require institutionalization or professional care in the home setting. While some patients may live for years after being diagnosed with AD, the average life expectancy after diagnosis is eight years.

In the past, AD could only be definitively diagnosed by brain biopsy or upon autopsy after a patient died. These methods, which demonstrate the presence of the characteristic plaque and tangle lesions in the brain, are still considered the gold standard for the pathological diagnoses of AD. However, in the clinical setting brain biopsy is rarely performed and diagnosis depends on a battery of neurological, psychometric and biochemical tests, including the measurement of biochemical markers such as the ApoE and tau proteins or the beta-amyloid peptide in cerebrospinal fluid and blood.

Biomarkers may possibly possess the key in the next step for diagnosing AD and other dementia. A biological marker that fulfils the requirements for the diagnostic test for AD would have several advantages. An ideal biological marker would be one that identifies AD cases at a very early stage of the disease, before there is degeneration observed in the brain imaging and neuropathological tests. A biomarker could be the first indicator for starting treatment as early as possible, and also very valuable in screening the effectiveness of new therapies, particularly those that are focused on preventing the development of neuropathological changes. A biological marker would also be useful in the follow-up of the development of the disease.

Shilajit plays an important part in boosting the energy metabolism process in the body. Anabolism is a key factor in the process of muscle growth for athletes and body builders. Anabolism is comprised of multiple metabolic pathways, constructing larger molecules from their building blocks. Energy is a necessary part of these metabolic pathways. In contrast, catabolism is the deconstruction of large molecules into smaller ones. Anabolism is fueled by both the small molecules of catabolism as well as an energy source, such as, but not limited to, adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The anabolic process and related anabolic hormones stimulate protein synthesis and muscle growth. Anabolic reactions are synthesis reactions and are endergonic, meaning that they consume more energy than they produce. Anabolism is the process of chemical reactions that combine simple molecules and monomers to form the body's complex structural and functional components. Glucose may take part in or be formed via several anabolic reactions such as, for example, synthesis of glycogen or the synthesis of new glucose molecules from byproducts of protein and lipid breakdown, i.e., gluconeogenesis. One way of promoting anabolism is through the use of a dietary supplement or drug. However, many anabolic stimulation compositions are illegal or have been banned from use by athletes in a number of professional, collegiate, and amateur sports. Additionally, anabolic stimulating products also generally tend to have undesired side effects that can be harmful to the health of an individual. Thus, there is a need and a demand for a dietary ingredient or composition which can promote anabolism without undesirable side effects and/or which is suitable for use by athletes. For the most part, anabolism is increased where there is an energy source and a way to synthesize proteins and therefore build new muscle. One energy source is ATP. Alternative energy sources include compounds or methods to increase metabolism. The ability and rate at which the body can spare and replenish energy is critical for anabolism.

Shilajit contains 85 types of minerals in the natural ionic form which are very vital for maintaining the equilibrium of energy metabolism in our body. The minerals in Shilajit are not similar to the mineral supplements available in the market. The minerals in Shilajit are in ionic form and have previously been absorbed by rich plant life and returned back to earth. So they are easily absorbed by the body cells.
FULVIC ACID the major ingredient of the Shilajit plays a vital role in penetrating the cell walls and transporting the minerals deep into the cells. This is the most important property of the Shilajit that helps in arresting and reversing the aging process. With shilajit ensuring sufficient supply of minerals and vitamins deep into the body cells the energy metabolism process in the body is well maintained.
