Studies Done on Shilajit, the herb that contains 86 of the TOTAL 92 minerals known to man!

Here are some studies that have been done regarding Shilajit, the amazing herb that has 86 of the TOTAL 92 minerals known to man on the entire planet!  So, I wouldn't be surprised if you're saying "DUH" at the end of this article because of course you get the following benefits when you put almost ALL of the minerals in the WORLD in your body!  :)

To wit:

Allergies
Ghosal, S., et al, "Mast Cell Protecting Effects of Shilajit and Its Constituents," Phytotherapy Research, 3 (6): 249-252, 1989.
Albino rats were sensitized to horse serum every day for 14 days. The test group was given processed shilajit. On the fourteenth day, the subjects were tested for mast cell degranulation. When mast cells degranulate, they release histamine, which causes inflammation, resulting in the characteristic runny nose and watery eyes of allergic reactions. The shilajit-treated subjects' mast cells had significantly less degranulation. Less histamine was released, and fewer allergic symptoms resulted. There were also no perceptible toxic effects with dosages ranging from 100 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg, equivalent to approximately 68 grams for a 150-pound person.

Anti-inflammatory
Goel, R.K., et al, "Anti-ulcerogenic and Anti-inflammatory Studies With Shilajit," Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 29: 95-103, 1990.
Albino rats were given injections of potassium carrageenan to induce inflammation in their hind paws. The paws were measured for fluid volume before and, at timed intervals, after injection. Shilajit, at a dose of 50 mg/kg, reduced chemically induced inflammation by 77 percent.

Antioxidant
Ghosal, S., et al, "Interaction of Shilajit With Biogenic Free Radicals," Department of Pharmaceutics, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India
Processed shilajit was tested for its ability to neutralize sulfite anion (SO), hydroxyl (HO), and nitric oxide (NO) free radicals. Chemical polymerization by free radicals was measured with and without processed shilajit. It provided almost complete protection of methyl methacrylate (MMA) against HO-radical-induced polymerization and significantly inhibited the polymerization of MMA by the SO free radicals. Processed shilajit efficiently trapped NO free radicals. The antioxidant effects were concentration-dependent. Higher concentrations of processed shilajit provided greater free-radical protection.
Ghosal, S., et al, "Antioxidant Defense by Native and Processed Shilajit - A Comparative Study," Indian Journal of Chemistry, 35B: 127-132, 1996.
The antioxidant potential of processed shilajit was compared to unprocessed shilajit and vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Peak levels of shilajit occurred 12 to 15 hours after ingestion and took more than 72 hours to metabolize. Processed shilajit showed significant antioxidant activity. It also exhibited the ability to regenerate ascorbic acid after it neutralized free radicals. The dihydroxybenzo-alpha-pyrones in shilajit recycled ascorbic acid. Unprocessed shilajit did not consistently exhibit antioxidant activity.

Diabetes
Bhattacharya, S.K., et al, "Shilajit Attenuates Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Mellitus and Decreases Pancreatic Islet Superoxide Dismutase Activity in Rats," Neuropharmacology Laboratory, Department of Pharmacology, Institute of Medical Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India
Diabetes mellitus was experimentally induced in albino rats by the administration of streptozotocin. The disease resulted in an increase of superoxide free radicals and free-radical damage to the pancreas. From the fourteenth day on, there was significant hyperglycemia, or high blood sugar, due to a lack of insulin. The test groups were given 50 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg. The shilajit had no effect on normal blood sugar levels. It stopped the progression of hyperglycemia with statistically significant changes among the 100 mg/kg group. There was also a decrease in superoxide-free-radical damage owing to the antioxidant effects of shilajit.

General
Ghosal, S., et al, "The Need for Formulation of Shilajit by Its Isolated Active Constants," Phytotherapy Research, 5: 211-216, 1991.
Unprocessed shilajit samples collected from India, Nepal, Pakistan, and the Soviet Union were compared to a processed shilajit extract for their respective antistress and central nervous system effects. The processed shilajit extract produced consistently better results than the unprocessed shilajit. Stress was induced by forced swimming immobility on albino rats for six minutes. The treated rats recovered more quickly than the nontreated rats, with the processed shilajit producing the best results. Albino rats given shilajit extract resisted aspirin-induced ulcers significantly better than the control group, which received no shilajit, and the group that was fed unprocessed shilajit. The therapeutic properties of shilajit vary by region. To provide a consistent level of active ingredients, processing and standardization is necessary.

Immunity
Ghosal, S., et al, "Shilajit-Induced Morphometric and Functional Changes in Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages," Department of Pharmaceutics, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India
Mice were given either a shilajit extract or a placebo. Their white blood cell activity was monitored prior to and, at intervals, after receiving the shilajit extract or placebo. The shilajit extract increased white blood cell activity, which rose in accordance with the dosage and the time that elasped after exposure.
Ghosal, S., "Chemistry of Shilajit, an Immunomodulatory Ayurvedic Rasayan," Pure and Applied Chemistry, 62 (7): 1285-1288, 1990.
The low-molecular-weight oxygenated dibenzo-alpha-pyrones and triterpenic acid (humic and fulvic acids) are the major active ingredients of shilajit. They affect the endocrine, autonomic, and central nervous systems, bringing about an immunomodulating result by increasing the activity of macrophages.
Bhatineharyn, S.K., "Effect of Shilajit on Rat Brain Monoamines," Department of Pharmacology, Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India Ghosal, S., Department of Pharmaceutics, Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-2210052, India
Male albino rats were divided into four groups:
Control
Shilajit extract (50mg/kg) one hour prior to evaluation
Shilajit extract (25mg/kg) daily five hours before evaluation
Shilajit extract (50mg/kg) daily five hours before evaluation
Neurotransmitter, serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline levels were measured and compared to the control group. The rats in the fourth group exhibited neurotransmitter changes associated with increased humoral, or immune, system response compared with that of the other groups. The rats in the third group experienced some improvement in neurotransmitter activity, but it was not as significant as the fourth group's.

Memory
Ghosal, S., et al, "Effects of Shilajit and Its Active Constituents on Learning and Memory in Rats," Pharmaceutical Chemistry Research Laboratory, Department of Pharmaceutics, Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India
Lab rats were given processed shilajit, raw shilajit, or fulvic acid (derived from shilajit). The rats were then tested in a maze and a mild electric-shock-avoidance environment. The rats that were fed the processed shilajit learned to evade electric shocks more quickly and took less time to learn the maze than the control subjects did.

Ulcer
Goel, R.K., "Anti-ulcerogenic and Anti-inflammatory Studies With Shilajit," Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 29: 95-103, 1990.
Albino rats and male guinea pigs were given aspirin to induce gastric ulcers. The subjects that were fed shilajit had fewer incidences of ulcers. When the gastric juices were analyzed, researchers found a significant increase in the carbohydrate-protein ratio, which indicates a rise in protective mucosal secretions. The subjects that consumed shilajit were protected from ulcers owing to a jump in the secretion of the stomach's protective mucous.
Ghosal, S., et al, "Anti-ulcerogenic Activity of Fulvic Acids and 4-methoxy-6-carbmethoxybiphenyl Isolated From Shilajit," Phytotherapy Research, 2 (4): 187-191, 1988.
Two organic compounds, fulvic acid (FA) and 4-methoxy-6-carbmethoxybiphenyl (MCB), were extracted from shilajit for their ability to protect against ulcers. A single administration of the extracts did not offer protection from ulcer formation. Five consecutive days of administration of FA and MCB significantly reduced the stress-ulcer index compared with that of the control group.

How in the WORLD does Facebook have Almost 840,000,000 users?!

How in the WORLD does Facebook have Almost 840,000,000 users?!

The world's total population is about to top 7,000,000,000 people, and only 2.267 billion of the world population actually have access to the internet (As of 12/31/11.  Source:  http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm). That means that the 839,000,000+ people who are on Facebook comprise about 32% of the ENTIRE WORLD population that HAS ACCESS to the INTERNET!

Total Facebook Users 839,073,380 (Source:  http://www.checkfacebook.com)

United States
Total FB users in the U.S.: 157,067,260
Percent of the US on FB: 50.04%
Total U.S. population: 311,591,900 (as of July 2011)
Canada
Total FB users in Canada: 16,761,880
Percent of Canadians on FB: 49.14
Total Canadian population: 34,108,800 (as of March 2012)

So why, and how, does FB have about 37% of the entire world population that has access to the internet (not to mention about 50% of the TOTAL population of the US and Canada)?

It's VIRAL. You join Facebook. You tell a friend or two or three to join probably after your initial "familiarization and learning curve period". After this initial period your two or three friends tell two or three of their friends so you now have potentially 12 (the first 3 plus the 9 THEY told) friends. Those 9 tell 3 of their friends each and you have potentially 39 (the first 3 plus the 9 THEY told plus the 27 the 9 told).

But it goes deeper than that. Of the 39, a few of them are already on Facebook and have 30, 60, 100+ friends in their friends list (or more). So, let's say only 5 of those 39 have the lowest number of friends (30) currently in their friends list. That's 150 people who could potentially come to you as either a friend suggestion from the person you know or just a random request because they saw you have mutual friends with them. That's only 5 out of the 39 already on FB, remember Facebook has 32% of the ENTIRE WORLD population that has access to the internet (and about 50% of the TOTAL population of the US and Canada). I only figured on 13%! See that?

What else do you know is like this?

More Information on Shilajit (found from various internet searches):

Shilajit is used in Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine. Shilajit is a rasayana herb and is an adaptogen.
Said to assist with:

*Weight Loss
*Sexual Energy
*immune System
*Diabetes
*Urinary Tract Infections
*Prevention of various Allergies
*Asthma
*Ulcers


Shilajit contains 86 minerals in Ionic form as well as humic acid and fulvic acid.

In essence Shilajit is a natural concentration of a plant found in the Himalayas of India, Nepal, Pakistan, China, Tibet and parts of Central Asia and Scandinavia. Himalayan flora is rich and varied.

Shilajit, found in high-altitudes in the Himalayas, is collected during the summer months when the ice melts, and sometimes found among a mass of porous rocks, and similar places.

Shilajit is a Sanskrit word, meaning "Conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness."

It contains 86 minerals in ionic form and the active principles fulvic acid, humic acid, hippuric acid and benzopyrones.

It aids in the treatment of diabetes and a variety of urological problems.

It is considered to be an aphrodisiac, for the treatment of impotence and infertility at the same time, men and women.

Shilajit’s active principle fulvic acid works to regenerate and extend the basic nutrients in the body’s cells. Fulvic acid restores the power balance in damaged cells and toxins and the elimination of food poisoning in a very short period of time.

Shilajit prevents the release of histamine in the blood, and contributes to the prevention of various allergies.

Shilajit provides the iron that is essential in decision-making bodies of the red blood cells (erythrocytes).

It also stimulates the immune system.

Shilajit is used to increase sexual vitality, and is usually referred to as Indian Viagra. It strengthens and reinforces the effects of nitric oxide produced by the male erection.

It is conducive to the protection of the liver's cholesterol and blood sugar balance levels.

It has beneficial effects, both to protect the liver, cholesterol and blood sugar levels in the body. As an adaptogenic agent I helps the body to cope with stress caused by the environment.

It aids in the operation of the pancreas and increases blood circulation and strengthens the digestive system.

Can also be used to treat hypothyroidism because it controls the activities of the thyroid.

Shilajit is well-known to reverse the aging process and prolong life.

Aids in the treatment of various conditions, including ulcers and asthma and rheumatism.

Clinical research shows that shilajit improves memory and cognitive abilities and reduces allergic reactions and respiratory problems; reducing stress and relieving digestive problems.

It also works as an anti-inflammatory and has antioxidants; thusly it eliminating free radicals responsible for various health issues.

Studies prove that shilajit increases immunity, physical strength and endurance.

It increased the live cell count in the male reproductive hormone system.

In short it can be said, shilajit is extremely beneficial to provide general good health, strengthen the immune system, arthritis, high blood pressure, anti-aging, controlling blood sugar levels and improve brain function, obesity, bone healing, kidney diseases, urinary tract problems and injury healing.

WOW!

MLM Industry has "Pyramid Schemes"? Best check YO'SELF!

Watch this short video! It is SOOO apropos and VERY poignant and profound! Some further comments coming up in a few minutes.

Video here: http://youtu.be/UAE85aHSRak


This is so appropriate because there are a LOT of people in this world who try to accuse MLM/Direct Sales/Network Marketing companies of being unfair or scams or unethical. Now granted, there IS a plethora of MLM companies out there that ARE unfair, unethical and can be considered scams, but for every MLM "scam" there is an equal or greater scam out there in the non-MLM world. I don't think many people consider this while unfairly vocalizing (or even thinking to themselves) their accusations of and/or objections to MLMs.

But stop and think about the profound message in this video and DON'T; in any way, shape or form APOLOGIZE for being in a MLM! EVERY business on this PLANET uses the SAME EXACT hierarchal structure that MLM companies use!

The owner is at the top of the "pyramid", the President/CEO is right under the owner, the Vice Presidents are under the President, the Directors are under the VPs, the Managers are under the Directors, the Supervisors are under the Managers and finally the Employees are under the Supervisors! And of course everyone further down in the hierarchy makes less than those above them (which is the CHIEF COMPLAINT that people have about the MLM business model/organizational structure).

What are the two big differences (among others, I'm sure), however, between the MLM world and the non-MLM world (even though the hierarchal structure is basically the same)?

First off, the NON-MLM world doesn't offer you a chance to make MORE THAN YOUR BOSS! In MLM, you can actually make MORE than those above you. Do YOU know ANYBODY who makes MORE than their boss (other than perhaps salespeople who are largely paid on commissions)

And the second big difference is that in the MLM world you can almost always (not all MLM compensation plans allow this) INFINITELY raise your INCOME according to your effort put forth!

Yes, in MLM, the sky is the limit (according to the effort you put forth). In NON-MLM, the only department you can make more than your preset salaries/wages is the sales department.
