Ginger and honey: an ancestral duo
More than a flavour: ginger and honey have been used together for centuries. Why did we choose them?

Morning infusion, grandmother's remedy for a chill… The ginger-honey duo is one of the oldest pairings in traditional remedies, from Asia to the Middle East.
Ginger, one of the most studied plants
The rhizome of Zingiber officinale owes its pungent taste to gingerols and shogaols. A systematic review of 109 randomised trials published in 2020 in Nutrients (Anh et al.) examined its effects, notably on digestive comfort and nausea.
In athletes, a study published in 2010 in The Journal of Pain (Black et al.) found that daily ginger intake reduced muscle pain after eccentric exercise.
Honey, natural energy
Honey provides readily available carbohydrates and antioxidant compounds (polyphenols, flavonoids). It naturally sweetens our formula and lets us avoid artificial flavourings.
Why in our gummies?
Pure Shilajit has a strong, earthy taste. Ginger and honey balance it for a warm, sweet, slightly spicy flavour — while bringing their own benefits.
Our belief: a supplement you enjoy taking is a supplement you take consistently. And consistency is everything.
