Shilajit Adaptogen Complex
Training output is only as consistent as the physiological foundation beneath it - Shilajit Adaptogen Complex combines four concentrated botanical extracts to support sustained energy production, stress resilience, and physical drive in athletes who train across multiple sessions per week.
Shilajit extract (standardized 30:1, delivering 400mg per capsule) supplies fulvic acid and dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, compounds that facilitate mitochondrial electron transport and nutrient delivery at the cellular level. Ashwagandha root extract (30:1, 100mg) reduces cortisol output during sustained physical and cognitive stress - a mechanism with direct relevance to recovery quality and training adaptation. Tongkat Ali root extract (300:1, 100mg) supports endogenous testosterone maintenance under training-induced hormonal suppression, with evidence across active male populations for preserved physical drive and endurance capacity. Sea moss extract (20:1, 100mg) contributes iodine and naturally occurring trace minerals that support thyroid function, which governs baseline metabolic rate and energy availability.
Built for athletes managing high training loads alongside demanding daily schedules - particularly masters athletes, male runners managing hormonal decline alongside heavy mileage, and individuals in consecutive training blocks where cumulative fatigue and cortisol accumulation erode both performance and recovery.*

FAQ
Q: Does shilajit actually increase energy?
A: Shilajit's active compounds - fulvic acid and dibenzo-alpha-pyrones - have demonstrated roles in mitochondrial electron transport chain function in peer-reviewed research. This is a cellular mechanism, not a stimulant effect. The result is improved energy substrate utilisation rather than a spike-and-crash pattern. Effects are cumulative and become more pronounced after 4-6 weeks of consistent daily use at 400mg.
Q: Is ashwagandha relevant for runners, or is it mainly for stress and sleep?
A: Both. Ashwagandha's primary mechanism is cortisol reduction via HPA axis modulation - which directly affects sleep quality, recovery speed, and the body's capacity to adapt to training stress. In runners carrying high mileage loads, chronically elevated cortisol suppresses testosterone, impairs glycogen resynthesis, and extends recovery timelines. At 100mg of a 30:1 extract, this formula provides a clinically relevant dose within a multi-ingredient stack.
Q: What does Tongkat Ali do for male runners specifically?
A: High-volume endurance training is associated with transient suppression of testosterone in male athletes. Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) at concentrated extract doses supports the maintenance of testosterone within normal physiological ranges under that training stress. The outcome is preserved physical drive, maintained muscle protein synthesis, and reduced hormonal fatigue - particularly relevant for masters male runners over 40 managing age-related testosterone decline alongside heavy training.
