Shilajit / Mineral Pitch
Asphaltum punjabianum
Shilajit's fulvic acid and dibenzo-alpha-pyrones support mitochondrial function and ATP production — directly addressing the metabolic dysfunction that characterises cancer. Laboratory studies show shilajit induces apoptosis in colon, ovarian, and liver cancer cells. As an adaptogen, it powerfully reduces cancer-related fatigue and supports energy metabolism.
