HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mountain Manna Himalayan Shilajat Extract by Raw Forest Foods

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: Himalayan Shilajit Extract. Shilajit is a mineral-rich substance found in high mountain regions, traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine.

The capsules also contain methylcellulose as an inactive ingredient (a binder that holds the capsule together).

Does it work?

No specific claim
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
General wellness

This Shilajit product is marketed for general wellness, not a specific health condition, so there's no single claim to grade — see Shilajit's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“general vitality and energy support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

The evidence we hold on shilajit for most uses — including Alzheimer's disease, sexual function, athletic performance, prostate health, and bone density — is insufficient to rate. This means the existing research doesn't yet establish whether it works for these purposes.

If you're considering it for a specific health goal, it's worth talking with your pharmacist about what the current science shows.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Shilajit

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Shilajit is generally well tolerated at the doses studied, though a rare case of headache has been reported. One important caution: unpurified products may contain heavy metals or other contaminants, so you'll want to use only purified, tested brands.

Very rarely, allergic reactions — including anaphylaxis (a severe, life-threatening reaction) — have been reported with shilajit, particularly when combined with physical activity. During pregnancy, the safety data advises against use due to contamination risk and limited safety information.

Breastfeeding safety is unknown, so it's best avoided while nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Shilajit

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Shilajit.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take any antidiabetes medications, check them with the tool below — shilajit can lower your blood sugar and increase the risk of going too low (hypoglycemia) when combined with these drugs.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a single-ingredient supplement that may help with blood sugar, but the biggest takeaway is checking your diabetes medications first. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, skip it — the data isn't there to say it's safe.

Make sure you're buying a purified, tested brand to avoid contamination. Talk to your pharmacist before you start, especially if you're on any prescription drugs.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking shilajit with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Most human and animal research shows that shilajit can decrease fasting plasma glucose levels. In an animal model, shilajit 100 mg per kg daily enhanced the glucose-lowering ability of both glibenclamide and metformin when given in combination over a 4 week period. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

Mountain Manna Himalayan Shilajat Extract by Raw Forest Foods: Common Questions

Does Mountain Manna Himalayan Shilajat Extract by Raw Forest Foods interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Mountain Manna Himalayan Shilajat Extract has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Mountain Manna Himalayan Shilajat Extract contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is this safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No. The safety data advises against using shilajit in pregnancy due to contamination risk and limited safety information. While breastfeeding, safety is unknown, so it's best avoided as well. Talk to your OB or midwife about what's right for you.
What should I watch for if I take this with diabetes medication?
The main risk is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Shilajit can lower your blood sugar on its own, and when you add diabetes drugs like metformin on top of that, the drop can be steeper. Watch for shakiness, sweating, confusion, or dizziness — and check your blood sugar if you have a meter. Run your specific medications through the checker on this page.
Can I be allergic to shilajit?
Yes, though it's rare. Most people tolerate it well, but allergic reactions — including severe ones — have been reported, especially when shilajit is taken alongside physical activity. If you develop hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling after taking it, stop and get medical help right away.
Does this really work for what it claims?
The evidence we hold isn't strong enough to say. For uses like Alzheimer's disease, sexual function, athletic performance, prostate health, and bone density, the research is currently insufficient to rate whether it works. If you're considering it for a specific reason, ask your pharmacist what the current science says.
How do I know if I'm buying a safe, pure product?
Look for brands that are purified and third-party tested — the product facts emphasize this because unpurified shilajit can contain heavy metals and other contaminants. Don't assume any brand is clean; verify it's been tested.
