About Us
From the pristine peaks of the Himalayas to your doorstep – a journey of purity, tradition, and trust.
Our Story
GB Harvests was founded on a simple truth: the world’s most powerful wellness secrets aren’t made in a lab – they are forged by the sun, glacial soil, and high-altitude air of the Himalayas.
Deep in Gilgit-Baltistan, nature operates on its own timeline. We created GB Harvests to bring the raw, untamed energy of the Karakoram range directly to your doorstep, replacing mass-produced alternatives with ancestral potency.
Wild-Harvested, Not Farmed
Our products grow naturally in wild groves, fed by glacial melt and mountain minerals. No pesticides, no synthetic fertilisers. Just 100% wild integrity.
The Aftabi (Sun-Dried)
We reject industrial heat. Our Shilajit purifies naturally under the sun for 45 days, and our Apricot Oil is cold-pressed at room temperature. This patient process preserves vital nutrients that boiling destroys.
Purity in Packaging
Our "Clean Harvest" promise extends to our jars. We use no artificial preservatives, stabilisers, or synthetic fragrances. What you get is raw, "living" food in its most potent state.
Our Promise to the Peaks
We believe in a fair exchange. By bypassing middlemen and working directly with the mountain communities of Gilgit-Baltistan, we ensure ethical trade for local families and the preservation of ancient harvesting traditions.

The Science: Why It's So Powerful
The secret to Salajeet’s potency lies in its unique chemical “cocktail.” It is composed of 60% to 80% Fulvic and Humic acids, along with over 84 ionic minerals.
The “Delivery Truck” (Fulvic Acid)
Think of Fulvic Acid as a microscopic delivery truck. It binds to nutrients and minerals, carrying them directly through cell walls to where they are needed most.
The Mineral Buffet
Provides trace elements such as iron, zinc, magnesium, and copper in a form the body can absorb instantly.
The Sweat of the Mountains
High in the Himalayan peaks, tucked between cracks in the rock, oozes a mysterious, tar-like resin. Known as Salajeet (or Shilajit), ancient Sanskrit texts called it the “Destroyer of Weakness.” It isn’t a herb or a stone, but a rare “mineral pitch” formed over centuries from the slow decomposition of organic plant matter.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to feel the effects?
Most people notice an increase in energy and mental clarity within 7 to 10 days of consistent use. However, for deeper benefits—like improved hormonal balance or bone health—it is typically recommended to take it for 6 to 8 weeks.
Can women take Shilajeet?
Yes, absolutely. While often marketed for male vitality, Salajeet is an "adaptogen" for everyone. For women, it can help:
- Balance hormones and regulate menstrual cycles
- Boost iron levels (common in cases of anemia)
- Improve skin health and collagen production due to high fulvic acid content
What is the best time of day to take it?
The best time is in the morning on an empty stomach. Taking it early gives you a natural energy boost for the day. Avoid taking it late in the evening, as the energy increase might make it difficult for some people to fall asleep.
Can I take it with coffee or tea?
It is best to dissolve Salajeet in warm water or milk. While you can add it to coffee, the caffeine may mask the natural energy-boosting properties of the resin. Never use boiling water, as extreme heat can degrade some of the delicate organic compounds.
Does Shilajeet have side effects?
If you use pure, purified resin, side effects are rare. However, because it is very mineral-rich, some people may experience:
- A slight "warming" sensation in the body
- Minor digestive changes as the body detoxes
- If you feel dizzy or your heart races, reduce the dose to a "grain of rice" size
Is it safe to take every day?
Yes, in traditional Ayurveda, Salajeet is a daily tonic. However, many modern practitioners suggest a "cycle" approach: take it for 5–6 days a week, or take it for 2 months and then take a 1-week break to allow your body to reset.
Why does my Shilajeet smell like "burnt rubber" or "cows"?
Don't worry—that is actually a good sign! Pure Salajeet has a very distinct, pungent aroma often described as earthy, smoky, or herbal. If it smells like perfume or has no scent, it is likely a fake or highly diluted product.
