Frequently asked questions
Everything about YO-GEE, our Shilajit, and how each product is sourced and tested.
Usage
Can I take YO-GEE products with my medication?
We can't advise on medicines — that is a question for your pharmacist or GP, who can see your full picture. Take the ingredient list with you: every product page lists exact ingredients and amounts per serve. This matters most if you take blood-thinning medicines, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a medical condition. Dietary supplement. Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Products & Ordering
What products does YO-GEE offer?
We offer three Shilajit products: Shilajit Honey Stick in Sea Buckthorn (real fruit puree), Shilajit Honey Stick in Saffron (one whole strand of GI-tagged Kashmir saffron per 8 g pack), and 5 Herbs Shilajit Resin (a classical Ayurvedic formula from the vitality category — the Rasayana class — combining Shilajit with Ashwagandha, 95% Curcumin, Golden Eye Grass, Tribulus and Kashmir saffron). All are sourced from the Kashmir Himalayas at 18,000 ft altitude and every batch is tested at an NABL-accredited laboratory, with each batch summary and its Certificate of Analysis data published at /coa.
Can I buy YO-GEE products now?
Yes. All three products are in stock and shipping in New Zealand. Delivery is free on orders over $75, anywhere in New Zealand and however many times you order; below $75 it is charged at checkout once you enter your postcode, and some rural addresses cost more to reach. Order from our shop and we dispatch from Auckland within two working days; most New Zealand orders arrive within three to five working days in total. Creating an account means members save 5 percent on every order, applied at checkout — any sale running on top of that is shown on the product pages.
Are your products available outside New Zealand?
Not yet. We ship within New Zealand only. If you are outside NZ, join our newsletter and we will let you know when we open another market.
What is GI-tagged Kashmir saffron?
A Geographical Indication (GI) tag is a legally protected origin certification — the same classification system that covers Champagne (France) and Darjeeling tea (India). Kashmir saffron carries a GI tag from the Government of India certifying authentic Kashmir Valley origin. The Saffron Honey Stick contains one whole strand of GI-tagged Kashmir saffron per 8 g pack — visible in every stick. Not extract. Not powder. Not flavouring.
What does the "76.06% fulvic acid" figure mean?
For batch HB-SRJ-IND-20250124-01, fulvic acid was measured at 76.06 g per 100 g of the material by titrimetric method (a non-NABL-scope method that may include related humic substances). We disclose this figure per batch in the Certificate of Analysis, alongside the testing method, rather than printing an undefined headline number as most commercial Shilajit does.
Your honey sticks contain honey — are they suitable for vegans?
Honey is an animal product, so our honey sticks are not vegan. We are transparent about this. Honey is used because Ayurvedic tradition uses it as the tradition’s own carrier — the Anupana — for Shilajit — a formulation principle, not merely a flavour. The 5 Herbs Shilajit Resin contains no honey and no additives.
Are your products safe?
All YO-GEE products are dietary supplements, imported and distributed in New Zealand by YO-GEE Private Limited. Our Shilajit is batch-tested at NABL-accredited laboratories for heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium) and fulvic acid content, and each batch summary and its Certificate of Analysis data are published at /coa. As with any dietary change, consult your healthcare provider before starting.
Can I take Shilajit with my current medications?
Always discuss any new food or dietary change with your healthcare provider, especially if you are on prescription medication, pregnant, or nursing. Our website provides educational information based on traditional Ayurvedic principles — it is not medical advice.
Ingredients & Education
Can YO-GEE products replace my supplements or medications?
No. YO-GEE products are dietary supplements, not medicine, and are not intended to replace any prescribed medication or supplement recommended by your healthcare provider. We provide educational information about traditional Ayurvedic ingredients. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making changes to your health routine.
Where can I learn about the ingredients in your products?
Our Ingredient Library explains every ingredient in a YO-GEE product — Shilajit, Honey, Sea Buckthorn, Kashmir Saffron, Ashwagandha, Curcumin, Golden Eye Grass and Tribulus — through both an Ayurvedic and a modern scientific lens. Find it under the Learn menu in our navigation.
What is The Lens?
The Lens reads the ingredient list from any packaged food and describes how each component is classified in Ayurveda relative to your dosha — your Ayurvedic constitution. No account required. Try it from the main navigation.
What is the dosha quiz?
The dosha quiz is based on Ayurvedic principles. It identifies your mind-body constitution (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) and offers educational guidance from traditional Ayurvedic knowledge — including which Shilajit format is traditionally associated with your constitution. You can retake it anytime.
Account & Privacy
Is my health information kept private?
Yes. Your quiz answers and any health data are stored securely and never sold or shared with third parties. We use them solely to provide your educational dosha profile. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
How do I update or delete my data?
You can request a copy of your data, corrections, or full deletion at any time. Email hello@genyogee.nz or call +64 9 243 0787 and we will action it. See our Privacy Policy for the full process.
