Who should avoid taking Shilajit?
Shilajit is generally well-tolerated, but some groups should avoid it or seek medical advice first. These include pregnant and breastfeeding women, children, and those taking prescription medication for chronic conditions such as diabetes or blood pressure.
Pregnancy and Children
No clinical studies have been carried out in pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or children. For this reason, Shilajit is not recommended for these groups. Supplements should always be chosen with caution when safety data is lacking.
Medical Considerations
Shilajit may influence hormone levels, energy metabolism, and nutrient absorption. This means it could theoretically interact with medications. People taking prescription drugs should consult their doctor before starting Shilajit.
Quality and Purity
It’s important to avoid raw Shilajit resin, which can contain harmful impurities. Only purified extracts like MEET Shilajeet®, tested under GMP conditions, are suitable for safe use.
