ImpactModerate impact

The collective tone suggests recognition of the study’s relevance, highlighting potential practical implications for muscle and connective tissue health.

Abstract in brief

  • The study investigated how taking Shilajit, a mineral pitch from the Himalayas, affects skeletal muscle in overweight adults and found that 8 weeks of supplementation increased the activity of genes related to the extracellular matrix, which is crucial for muscle structure and repair.
  • The supplementation was safe and did not cause changes in blood sugar, lipids, or muscle damage markers, even when combined with exercise.
  • The results suggest that oral Shilajit may help muscle adaptation by enhancing genes involved in muscle elasticity, repair, and regeneration, indicating potential benefits for muscle health in overweight individuals.]
