I am pretty sure it is fake. You want Shilajit in its original form. Look how cheap they are selling it for... Shilajit is expensive.
1.Capsules are the easiest form of mumijo to counterfeit. There is a huge problem with counterfeit shilajeet capsules. Most mumijo in capsule form is counterfeit. Its easy to fake because it is mixed in with other materials during the encapsulation process, and therefore near impossible to tell what is real and what is not. This makes it particularly easy for manufacturers to put very, very little true shilajeet in their capsules, while selling the product for a high price.
2.The shilajit dosage is impossible to manage. Since the product inside the capsule can never be accurately measured, it’s impossible to know how much you are really consuming, how many capsules you need, etc. Shilajit dosage is straight-forward when taking solid, pure shilajit medicine, but as soon as it is combined with other materials and fillers, you have no idea whether or not you’ve taken enough. If the shilajit dosage you are taking is not enough, you are basically throwing your money away!

LOL, really? Google all the scientific studies on shilajit, and look at the authors of the studies. Do you see Shibnath Ghosal a lot? Well he is the one leading the team at Natreon, who are the ones that make the shilajit we sell: Primavie.

He also wrote a book you may have heard of: https://www.amazon.com/Shilajit-Perspective-S-Ghosal/dp/184265313X
Not to mention being one of the top researchers on shilajit anywhere in the world.

You mean we don't price gouge our customers, and that is evidence that we are selling fake products? I can raise the price if it makes you feel better...
Capsules are the easiest form of mumijo to counterfeit.
Good thing we sell it in powder form as well...
The shilajit dosage is impossible to manage.

What does this even mean?!? There is 250mg of Primavie in each capsule. If you really don't get how capsules work, then just take the powder...
And the most important reason never to take shilajit capsules, they are filled with filler, fake material.
Do you know how every single encapsulated product is made? Anyone not listing other ingredients is just lying to you. Unless you can size the capsule exactly right for the amount of powder you are filling, and the powder can flow over the encapsulation machinery perfectly without anything added, then you need to formulate your capsules with things to help. The whole "No fillers and excipients" bullshit is just that, bullshit. Most places just leave them off the label, and lie to people about it. 99% of the capsules out there have some filler or excipient in them. That's how machine encapsulation works. Regardless, if you are really concerned about it, you can just use the powder...
This makes me ask, so what other supplements is fake from them?
We don't sell fake products. PERIOD. We go so far above and beyond the industry standard for quality control, it's laughable to even suggest we sell fake product.
