In the human body, like minded cells working together are known as tissues. Although, all cells within a tissue are not identical, but their origin is same. The human body contains many types of cells, organized into four main categories namely (i) muscle, (ii) connective, (iii) nervous, and (iv) epithelial. Muscle tissue is a special and soft tissue in the human body that responds to contraction to provide movement. Connective tissue connects and binds the cells and organs of the body. Nervous tissue controls the movement of the human body, transmits and carries electrical impulses to and from different parts of the body. Epithelial tissue is very thin tissue that covers exterior surfaces of the body.

Tissue Repairing Process

The human body consists of 50 trillion cells, of which 100 billion are nerve cells. In the human body, approximately 50 to 70 billion cells die, which are then replaced by new cells. Regeneration and replacement are two main processes of tissue repairing. In regeneration process, newly grown tissue restores the damaged tissue to their normal state. The tissue regrows and completely restores the architecture and function of the damaged tissue. Tissue regeneration occurs by cellular proliferation. In the replacement process, repairing occurs by the laying down of connective (fibrous) tissue, a process commonly referred as scarring. In replacement process, the injured tissues are not capable of complete restoration. However, they provide enough structural stability to the injured tissue to be able to function.

Shilajit Role in Tissue Repairing

Shilajit is a natural supplement provided by nature that contains more than 85 minerals in their ionic form. Shilajit is very rich in minerals and vitamins that helps in repairing and regeneration of damaged tissues and reduce inflammation of these tissues. Shilajit has all the minerals and vitamins that are necessary for repairing of human body tissues. These include calcium, manganese, selenium, zinc, copper, vitamin C and vitamin A.

Copper is an essential nutrient and plays a very important role in improving the strength of connective tissues and enhances production of collagen for repairing of connective tissues. Copper is also used with vitamin C to produce elastin. Elastin is a protein that helps in improving the elasticity of the connective tissue.

Zinc is an essential mineral for cell division, collagen formation, protein synthesis and immune function. All of these are necessary processes for tissue regeneration and repair. Zinc also boosts the immune system and is famous for the fast healing process of wounds. Zinc in Shilajit helps tissue regeneration and makes healing process fast.

One of most amazing mineral in Shilajit is manganese which is important for Joints, bones and connective tissues formation. Collagen in the human body is produced by vitamin C and manganese which helps in repair of connective tissues. Without manganese and vitamin C, the human body is not able to make collagen and thus cannot repair connective tissues. In the process of tissue regeneration, the requirement for Vitamin C in human body increases as it strengthens the connective tissues and also helps in preventing further injury to damaged tissues. During wound healing, the human body requires increased production of collagen. A proper diet of Shilajit provides essential vitamin C and manganese to the human body for production of collagen and thus helps in repairing damaged tissues.

Researchers from the University of Bristol studying the cellular processes underlying the body’s response to healing have revealed how a flash of calcium is the very first step in repairing damaged tissue. Calcium is very important part of blood clotting process. Vitamin K and calcium C helps in the clotting cascade. One can use Shilajit for reducing the blood clotting duration. Calcium enables human body muscles to contract and helps in transmission of neural impulses. The use of Shilajit can fulfill the requirement of calcium in the human body and will help in repairing of damaged tissues. As milk is a rich source of calcium, one can take Shilajit with milk for fast regrowth of damaged tissues.
