Best Shilajit in Australia: Resin, Capsules and Gummies

Shilajit now comes as a sticky resin, a measured capsule or a flavoured gummy, and the labels are hard to compare: some list raw resin, some list a concentrated extract, and very few show test results. This page ranks the shilajit products our customers buy most at Supps247, checks each one against its brand label, and explains what a heavy-metal test certificate should show before you buy. For background on what shilajit is and what the small human studies found, read our shilajit explainer first. Updated October 2026.

Our top picks at a glance

Figures are per label serve, from the brand label or brand website. Resin doses are measured by eye, so they are approximate.

1. Pure Himalayan Shilajit Gummies Gold: best gummies

BIYODE's Shilajit Gold Gummies are the shilajit product our customers buy most, by a clear margin. Each two-gummy serve contains 300 mg of a 10:1 shilajit extract, which the label presents as equivalent to 3,000 mg of resin, plus small amounts of ashwagandha (KSM-66 on the front label), ginger, black musli, gokshura, kaunch, Panax ginseng and akarkara. They are tamarind flavoured, set with pectin rather than gelatin, and suit people who do not want to measure a resin or swallow capsules.

• 2 gummies (8 g) per serve, 30 serves per 60-gummy jar
• 300 mg of 10:1 shilajit extract per serve, labelled as 3,000 mg resin equivalent
• 40 mg ashwagandha extract, plus 4 to 10 mg each of six other herbal extracts
• 0 g added sugar, 2 g total sugars and 4.64 g fibre per serve
• Labelled 100% vegan and gluten free

Worth knowing: The 3,000 mg on the front is a resin equivalent, not the weight of shilajit in each serve. It is a blend, so check every ingredient, and the ashwagandha in it carries the same cautions as any ashwagandha product, including the TGA's advice that people with current or past liver problems should avoid it. We did not see heavy-metal testing details on the label, and it is the dearest pick per serve. Our Shilajit Gold Gummies guide has more detail.

2. Shilajit by Asli Ayurveda: best resin

Asli Ayurveda's purified resin is our best-selling resin and second only to the gummies overall. It comes in a 20 g jar with a small measuring spoon, and the brand describes it as carefully purified and filtered the Ayurvedic way. Asli Ayurveda says its shilajit is lab tested for purity and potency and that each purchase comes with a lab-tested certificate, which is more than most shilajit brands offer.

• 20 g of purified shilajit resin, with no other ingredients listed
• Brand dose: a pea-sized amount of about 200 to 250 mg, dissolved in about 100 mL of warm water or milk
• Roughly 80 to 100 doses per jar at that amount
• Brand states it is lab tested and GMP certified, with a certificate included

Worth knowing: We have not seen the certificate's results ourselves, so check that it lists lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury and a batch number that matches your jar (see How to choose below). A pea-sized dose is an estimate, so the amount can vary from day to day. Our Asli Ayurveda shilajit guide covers how to take it.

3. Hillside 100% Pure Himalayan Shilajit: best clearly labelled resin

Hillside's sun-dried resin is a single-ingredient shilajit that the brand sources from the Gilgit-Baltistan region of the Himalayas. Its supplement facts give a clear 350 mg serve and 57 serves per container, and the label also says vegan, gluten free and halal certified, which makes it the easiest resin on this page to dose and check.

• 350 mg dried and sun-filtered shilajit resin per serve, 57 serves per container
• Brand directions: a piece about the size of a tea seed (roughly 300 to 500 mg) stirred into a warm, not boiling, drink once a day
• Labelled vegan, gluten free and halal certified, with no artificial ingredients
• Hillside describes a 60-day controlled sun-drying process

Worth knowing: Hillside publishes a July 2025 Eurofins report on its website with low results for lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury, which is good practice. The sample in that report is described as Honey Shilajit, a different Hillside product, so it does not show that the resin jar was tested. It costs more per serve than Asli Ayurveda or Legit.

4. Shilajit by Legit Supps: best capsule

Legit's shilajit is the simplest way to take the same amount every day. Each capsule holds 500 mg of shilajit extract standardised to 50% fulvic acid, with nothing else on the ingredient list apart from the capsule. There is no taste to deal with, and a 60-capsule bottle costs less per serve than most picks on this page.

• 1 capsule (500 mg) per serve, 60 serves per bottle
• Shilajit extract standardised to 50% fulvic acid
• 0 kJ, with no sugar, fat or sodium per serve
• Gelatin capsule, so it does not suit vegetarians

Worth knowing: We did not see heavy-metal testing or batch details on the label. A fulvic acid percentage describes one component, not overall quality or purity. Stock varies by store, so check the product page before you travel.

How we chose

We ranked shilajit products by units sold at Supps247 over the last six months, then checked each one against its brand label or brand website in October 2026. We left out products whose format or amount per serve we could not confirm from a label, blends where shilajit is a minor ingredient, and products that are sold out. Value tiers come from price per label serve at the time of writing: $ is lower than most picks here, $$ is in the middle and $$$ is premium. Resin doses are measured by eye, so resin values are approximate. Brands do not pay for placement.

How to choose shilajit: resin, capsules or gummies

Pick the format you will actually use. Resin is the traditional form: you dissolve a small piece in a warm drink, and the dose is an estimate. Capsules give the same measured amount every day. Gummies are the easiest to take but are usually blends with other herbs and a little sugar or fibre. Our shilajit explainer covers the formats in more depth.

Read what the milligrams mean. Labels list different things: raw resin weight (Hillside, 350 mg), a concentrated extract (Legit, 500 mg), or an extract converted to a resin equivalent (BIYODE, 300 mg of a 10:1 extract shown as 3,000 mg). These figures are not directly comparable. When ConsumerLab tested eight shilajit supplements in 2024, fulvic acid ranged from 6.9 mg to 2,206 mg per serving, fulvic acid amounts were usually not on the label, and resins contained far less fulvic acid than extracts in capsules.

Ask for heavy-metal results, not just the word "tested". Shilajit is a natural, mineral-rich material, so heavy metals are the main quality question. The US National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health notes that some Ayurvedic preparations have been found to contain lead, mercury or arsenic, and Victoria's Department of Health has linked imported Ayurvedic medicines to lead poisoning. The reassuring part: ConsumerLab found lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury beneath levels of concern in all eight products it tested at one serve a day, although its review notes some would exceed strict lead limits if taken more than once a day. Those were US products, not the ones on this page.

What a useful certificate shows. Look for a batch or lot number that matches your product, the name of an independent, accredited laboratory, the test date, and results for lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury with units. Hillside's published Eurofins report is a good example of the format, listing lead below 0.05 mg/kg, although it covers a different Hillside product. Of our picks, Asli Ayurveda says a certificate comes with each purchase and Hillside publishes reports online. We did not see testing details for the BIYODE gummies or Legit capsules, so ask the brand before you buy.

Stick to one serve a day. Following the label dose keeps your intake of any trace contaminants low, and there is no established, evidence-based shilajit dose. The few human trials are small and mostly used one branded, purified extract at 250 to 500 mg a day (Pandit and colleagues, 2016; Keller and colleagues, 2019), so their results may not apply to a different product.

Check with a professional first if it applies to you. There is little safety evidence for shilajit in pregnancy or breastfeeding, with medicines, or with medical conditions, so talk to your GP or pharmacist before using it. If you are drug tested in your sport, none of our picks shows HASTA or Informed Sport certification; our guide to supplements for drug-tested athletes explains what to look for.

FAQs

What is the best shilajit in Australia?

There is no single best shilajit for everyone. On this page, BIYODE's Shilajit Gold Gummies rank first because they are our best seller, Asli Ayurveda is our best-selling resin, Hillside has the clearest resin label, with a stated 350 mg serve, and Legit suits people who want a measured capsule. Whichever you choose, check how the label states the dose and ask for heavy-metal results for your batch.

What is the best shilajit resin?

Of the resins we stock, Asli Ayurveda sells the most and says a lab-tested certificate comes with each purchase. Hillside gives the clearest label, with a 350 mg serve and 57 serves per jar, and is labelled vegan and halal certified. Both are single-ingredient resins that you dissolve in a warm drink. Choose the one whose testing information you can actually check for your jar.

Are shilajit gummies as good as resin?

They are different products. The BIYODE gummies contain 300 mg of a 10:1 extract per two gummies, shown on the front as a 3,000 mg resin equivalent, plus ashwagandha and six other herbs. A resin is shilajit on its own. We know of no study comparing gummies with resin, so choose gummies for convenience and taste, and resin or capsules if you want shilajit alone.

Does shilajit contain heavy metals?

Raw shilajit is a natural mineral-rich material, so heavy metals are possible, which is why purification and testing matter. In ConsumerLab's 2024 tests of eight shilajit supplements, lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury were beneath levels of concern at one serve a day, but some would exceed strict lead limits at more than one serve a day. Ask for a batch certificate and stick to the label dose.

How much shilajit should I take?

Follow the label for your product, because doses are stated differently: Hillside lists 350 mg, Asli Ayurveda a pea-sized 200 to 250 mg, Legit one 500 mg capsule and BIYODE two gummies. There is no established evidence-based dose, and the small human trials used 250 to 500 mg a day of one branded extract. Do not take more than one serve a day.

Who should not take shilajit?

Talk to your GP or pharmacist first if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take medication or have a medical condition; Hillside specifically mentions kidney, liver and blood pressure conditions. The BIYODE gummies are labelled not for anyone under 18. Because the gummies also contain ashwagandha, people with current or past liver problems should avoid them, following the TGA's ashwagandha safety advice.
