A three-extract daily blend designed to support three distinct cellular systems — mineral foundation, mental clarity, and metabolic energy — in one capsule. Single, identifiable extracts at researched doses. No proprietary blend.
Three traditional extracts that pair well as a daily foundation:
Two capsules daily, morning or early afternoon, with or without food. No loading phase, no cycling.
Most people use this trio as a baseline daily supplement. It pairs naturally with our single-active products if you’d like to focus on a specific system more deeply.
Each ingredient has its own evidence base. Shilajit fulvic acid has been studied for its potential role in supporting mitochondrial function. Sea moss is a documented source of trace minerals. Lion’s Mane has been investigated for its potential role in supporting cognitive function and nerve health. We won’t make claims that go beyond what the research supports.
Every batch is tested by an independent ISO-accredited laboratory for identity, potency, heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury), microbial load, and pesticide residues. Certificates of analysis are available on request.
Food supplement. Not a medicine. Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Keep out of reach of children. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, on prescription medication, or under medical care, consult a clinician before use.

Standardisation to fulvic acid content ensures batch consistency and a reliable dose of the primary bioactive compound. Not all Shilajit products specify their fulvic acid content, making comparison between products difficult. The Lux Vita extract is standardised, tested, and consistent.
Piperine, the active alkaloid in black pepper, has been consistently shown to enhance the bioavailability of numerous compounds by inhibiting intestinal and hepatic metabolism. Its inclusion in the formula is a practical decision aimed at maximising the value of the Shilajit dose.
Sea Moss is a species of red algae harvested from Atlantic coastlines. It is a naturally rich source of iodine and a range of trace minerals, and has been used in traditional food and herbal practice for centuries. Its inclusion in this formula supports the broad-spectrum mineral profile that is central to the product's daily foundation approach.
Lion's Mane contains two categories of bioactive compounds — hericenones from the fruiting body and erinacines from the mycelium — that have been studied for their role in supporting Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) synthesis. The dual-extraction process captures both, using alcohol extraction for hericenones and hot water extraction for beta-glucans and polysaccharides. Results from Lion's Mane supplementation are cumulative and typically require consistent daily use over several weeks.
Typical Dose: 300–500mg daily
Shilajit is taken in the morning as part of the daily protocol. Its energising properties and support for mitochondrial function make it appropriate for daytime use. It pairs naturally with Creatine as part of the Performance and Recovery stack, and with NAD+ for those prioritising cellular longevity.
Fulvic acid is the primary bioactive component of Shilajit, typically comprising 15–20% of the resin by weight.
It is a small molecular weight organic acid that has demonstrated the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Research has explored its role in reducing the aggregation of tau proteins — a hallmark of neurodegenerative disease — and its capacity to act as a carrier molecule, potentially enhancing the cellular uptake of other nutrients and minerals.
A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study published in Andrologia (2015) found that men aged 45–55 taking 250mg of purified Shilajit twice daily for 90 days showed statistically significant increases in total testosterone, free testosterone, and DHEAS compared to the placebo group. These findings were replicated in a similar study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology.
A study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (2019) examined the effect of Shilajit supplementation on muscle strength and recovery in healthy men. Participants taking Shilajit demonstrated significantly greater preservation of muscle strength following a fatiguing exercise protocol, along with improved recovery markers. The authors attributed these effects in part to Shilajit's proposed role in mitochondrial energy production.
Dibenzo-Alpha-Pyrones (DBPs)
DBPs are unique to Shilajit and are not found in meaningful quantities in any other natural substance. They appear to play a role in mitochondrial electron transport chain function, specifically in supporting the regeneration of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) — a compound essential for cellular energy production. This mechanism is one proposed explanation for Shilajit's traditional association with energy and stamina.
Trace Minerals
Shilajit contains over 80 minerals in ionic form, meaning they are already broken down to a size that allows for rapid cellular absorption. This includes iron, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, and manganese, among others. Modern diets, particularly those reliant on intensively farmed produce, are often lower in trace minerals than they were historically — making a concentrated natural source of ionic minerals relevant for many adults.
It pairs naturally with Creatine as part of the Performance and Recovery stack, and with NAD+ for those prioritising cellular longevity.
Evening Recovery + Shilajit — sleep quality and recovery focus.
Also Known As: Mumijo, mineral pitch, asphaltum punjabinum
Origin: High-altitude mountain rock formations, primarily the Himalayas, Altai, and Caucasus
Category: Adaptogen / mineralised organic compound
Shilajit is a thick, resinous substance that seeps from cracks in mountain rock formations, particularly in the Himalayas and surrounding ranges. It is the result of centuries of microbial decomposition of plant matter under extreme geological pressure. The result is a dense concentrate of fulvic acid, humic acid, dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, and over 80 trace minerals in ionic form.
It has been a central compound in Ayurvedic medicine for over 3,000 years, where it is classified as a 'rasayana' — a rejuvenating substance. Modern research has begun to explore the mechanisms behind its traditional uses, with a growing body of evidence in areas including mitochondrial function, testosterone support, and cognitive health.
Animal and in vitro studies have investigated fulvic acid's potential role in reducing tau protein aggregation and beta-amyloid plaque formation — two pathological processes associated with cognitive decline. A paper published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease (2012) identified fulvic acid as a potent inhibitor of tau aggregation in cell models. Human clinical data in this area remains limited and ongoing.
Typical Dose: 300–500mg daily
The Lux Vita Shilajit uses a purified, standardised resin extract that has been processed to remove contaminants and standardised for fulvic acid content. Every batch is independently tested.
Shilajit quality varies dramatically by source and processing method. Raw or unprocessed Shilajit may contain heavy metals, mycotoxins, and microbial contaminants from its geological environment. The Lux Vita Shilajit uses a purified, standardised resin extract that has been processed to remove contaminants and standardised for fulvic acid content. Every batch is independently tested.
Every batch of Lux Vita Shilajit Capsules is independently tested for heavy metals (including lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium), microbial contamination, and active compound concentration. Certificates of analysis are available on request.
Most supplement protocols ask you to begin with a single-target product. Shilajit is unusual because its bioactive compounds principally fulvic acid, dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, and ionic trace minerals — operate across multiple systems simultaneously. Rather than stimulating one pathway, it appears to support fundamental cellular infrastructure: mitochondrial function, mineral status, and antioxidant defence. This makes it an appropriate daily foundation rather than a situational supplement.
The Lux Vita Shilajit Capsules use a purified, standardised Shilajit resin extract, delivered in a vegetarian capsule. This is the entry product in the Lux Vita range and the foundation of the Daily Protocol, chosen because of Shilajit's broad-spectrum activity across energy, recovery, hormonal health, and cognitive function, and because the evidence base supports daily use with a well-characterised safety profile.
