COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Science-backed answers to the most common questions about Shilajit and Saffron.

What is Shilajit and how does it work?
Shilajit (also known as Mumijo, Salajeet, or Purified Asphaltum) is a natural mineral resin formed over thousands of years from geological compression of ancient plant matter. Its primary active compound is fulvic acid — an ionic transporter that carries minerals and nutrients across cell membranes. Portho Nutrients Shilajit is sourced from Himalayan formations at 16,000–18,000 feet and verified at 78% fulvic acid.
Can I take Shilajit and Saffron together?
Yes — Shilajit and Kashmiri Saffron complement each other well. Shilajit addresses cellular energy, mineral nutrition, and physical performance, while saffron targets mood, cognitive function, skin health, and antioxidant protection. Many Portho Nutrients customers use both daily — Shilajit in the morning and saffron in kesar doodh at night.
How long before I see results from Shilajit?
Initial improvements in energy and sleep are typically noticed within 2–3 weeks. Physical performance and stamina benefits appear at 4–6 weeks. Testosterone support benefits are most significant at 60–90 days. Consistent daily use for 3 months is recommended for full Rasayana benefits.
How long before I see results from Kashmiri Saffron?
Saffron's mood-supporting effects are documented in trials as early as 2–4 weeks. Skin health improvements are typically visible at 4–6 weeks. For eye health and cognitive support, 8–12 weeks is the clinical benchmark. Daily use of 5–8 threads in kesar doodh is the recommended dose.
Are Portho Nutrients products lab tested?
Yes. Shilajit is lab tested for 78% fulvic acid content, heavy metal safety, and purity. Kashmiri Saffron is verified for Mongra grade purity and absence of artificial colour or adulterants. Certificates of Analysis available from our Lab Reports page.
Is Shilajit safe for women?
Yes. Portho Nutrients offers a women-specific Shilajit formula combining pure resin with Ashwagandha, Kali Musli, and Swarn Bhasma — designed for hormonal balance, iron absorption, skin health, and energy. Safe for daily use; consult a physician if pregnant or breastfeeding.
What makes Kashmiri Saffron better than other saffron?
Kashmiri Mongra saffron from Pampore has higher crocin, safranal, and picrocrocin content than Iranian or Spanish varieties — verified by ISO 3632 Category I. The unique altitude, glacial soil, and brief October harvest window produce saffron with distinctly higher active compound concentration. It also holds a Geographical Indication (GI) tag protecting its origin authenticity.
