Shilajit Use
Hi Doc, I have started taking Himalaya Company's Shilajit Capsules 1-1 tablet twice daily from last 1 month. I feel that I have trouble falling asleep at night and takes around 3-4PM for me to fall asleep. Is this any kind of side effect? Also I feel a bit of palpitations. Please suggest.

Hello Sir, taking shilajit makes you feel energetic and if you are taking Shilajit you should do proper workout and should try to exercise daily or you can decrease the dose to single capsule a day.

Share your BP and pulse rate. Second shilajit has not any such side effect. We need more history.
