Our Research Team

Science Is Not Optional. It Is the Foundation.

Golden Shilajit Official was built on a principle that most supplement brands ignore: every claim we make must be verifiable by someone other than us. That requires people who understand the science — and who hold us to it every single batch.

Our team brings together expertise in food science, analytical chemistry, clinical nutrition, and nutraceutical research. They are the reason our Eurofins lab reports say what they say — and the reason we are confident enough to publish them openly.

Meet the Team

	Adeel Rahman M.Sc. Food Science & Technology Adeel leads our purification quality oversight, ensuring every batch of Shilajit resin meets our strict processing standards. His background in food science gives him a precise understanding of how temperature, filtration, and processing conditions affect the final product — particularly fulvic acid retention and contaminant removal.
	Ayesha Rahman Lab Assistant Ayesha manages the day-to-day coordination of our batch testing submissions to Eurofins Scientific. She prepares samples, tracks certificates of analysis, and maintains our testing records across every production run. Her attention to detail is what keeps our BSCG certification programme running without gaps.
	Dr. Sana Khalid Clinical Nutritionist Dr. Sana reviews the clinical and nutritional literature on Shilajit, fulvic acid, and trace mineral bioavailability to ensure our content and product claims are grounded in what the evidence actually supports. She is the reason we do not overstate what Shilajit does — and the reason what we do say is accurate.
	Dr. Hamza Nutraceutical Research Specialist Dr. Hamza focuses on the intersection of traditional Himalayan botanical knowledge and modern nutraceutical science. He advises on sourcing standards, raw material assessment, and the scientific framing of our product’s active compounds — ensuring that what we source and what we claim are always aligned.

Our Testing Partners

Eurofins Scientific

Eurofins is one of the world’s largest independent testing organisations, operating over 900 laboratories across 60 countries with ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation. Every batch of our purified Shilajit resin is tested by Eurofins for heavy metals (ICP-MS), microbial safety, pesticide residues, and fulvic acid identity verification.

BSCG (Banned Substances Control Group)

BSCG is a US-based certification programme requiring brands to test every batch against over 500 substances and submit to independent programme auditing. Our team manages this commitment on a continuous, batch-by-batch basis — not as a one-time achievement.

Our Testing Standards

Every batch is held to the following benchmarks before it reaches a customer:

• Heavy metals: California Prop 65 limits for lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium
• Microbial safety: USP standards for TAPC, yeast, mould, coliforms, E. coli, and Salmonella
• Fulvic acid content: 40–55% by dry weight, independently verified
• Pesticide residues: Below EU Maximum Residue Levels
• Solvent residues: None — our process is entirely water-based
