Saw this study on Shilajit gummies - legit or just hype?
Hey all, saw this article about a study on Shilajit (PMID: 12345678) claiming it boosts energy and reduces fatigue. As a parent who's running on 4 hours of sleep and caffeine, I'm desperate for something that works. Has anyone tried Shilajit gummies? Is this study legit or just biased marketing?

Interesting! I looked up the study. It's a small randomized trial (n=60) published in a decent journal. The methodology seems solid—double-blind, placebo-controlled. BUT, it was funded by a supplement company, which raises some red flags for bias. The results showed moderate improvements in fatigue scores, but the effect size wasn't huge. Might be worth a try if you're curious, but don't expect miracles. Also, check if the gummies use a standardized extract—that matters for consistency.
Thanks CrystalCathy502! Ugh, funding by a supplement company does make me skeptical. Has anyone here actually felt a difference with Shilajit gummies? I'm so tired of wasting money on stuff that doesn't work. My toddler's sleep regression is killing me 😴
