Live Beautiful - An Origin Story
Dedication: Rakaposhi Organics is dedicated to my late mother, Shamim Sherally Ramzi, who passed away in November 2021 after a brief but intense battle with cancer. She gave me everything, and it is through her that I know the meaning of true love.

About Me: My name is Aly Khan Ramzi, and I am the founder of Rakaposhi Organics. I am the oldest of 3 children, and I have a couple of my own. Professionally I have a background in finance, where I spent 20 years before starting this project.
While on the surface it may seem like my experience does not directly translate to starting an ecommerce brand focused on lifestyle and wellness, my time in the business world has taught me that the only way to succeed in life and in business is to have strong and honest foundations, to take care of your people (customers included) as if they were family, to add value at every step of the way, all while being deeply passionate about what you do.

Background:
Over my life, I have lived in many places. Born in Karachi, Pakistan; raised and educated in the DC Metro Area, USA; then Dubai for a decade in my 30's; and since 2019, Hong Kong. It would be fair to say I am a global citizen.
In 2021, during the coronavirus pandemic lockdown, I hadn't seen my mom for almost two years. In mid-November, I received a call urging me to "drop everything and get on an airplane" because my mother's time was limited.
I flew out 48 hours later. Upon arrival in Karachi, I rushed to Agha Khan University Hospital, where my sister warned me to compose myself before entering my mother's room. She was intubated and weak, but her eyes showed she was glad I was there.
During those final days that I spent by her bedside, the words "live, beautiful" echoed in my mind like a mantra I couldn't stop repeating. Despite our collective prayers, she passed away at 5:05 pm on November 25, 2021, 4 days before her 66th birthday.
My Mother's Legacy: My mom was an exceptional person. Born in Calcutta, India in 1954, my mother lived through a civil war and moved to Karachi in her late teens. After divorcing my father, she fought for custody and became an English teacher to support us, eventually managing to immigrate us to the US and taking up a job as an office manager, all done as a single parent.
Her lifelong passion for protecting and educating the disempowered eventually brought her back home and led her to set up a charity school in Skardu, Pakistan, where she worked until her passing.
The Birth of Rakaposhi Organics: In my grief, I found solace in a new purpose: to continue my mother's legacy of giving back. Thus, Rakaposhi Organics was born, inspired by her dedication to education and empowerment, and a profound desire to continue her Great Work.
My First Contact with Shilajit: My first experience with Shilajit was transformative. Despite its pungent taste, the immediate surge of energy and subsequent health benefits have convinced me of its potential. When I reached out to some of our relationships in the north about my idea for launching this project, the outpouring of support from members of the shilajit community was tremendous; my mom had a direct and profound impact on their children, and they were more than happy to support us.
Our Creed: At Rakaposhi Organics, we aim to help you "Live Beautiful" by offering premium products that genuinely benefit your body, mind, and soul. Inspired by my mother's dedication to bettering lives, we commit to giving back to the communities we serve. We operate transparently, ensuring fair-trade practices and sustainability.
If you ever have a question or want to speak with me about our product or our business, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly, and we can chat about what’s on your mind.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We wish you the very best in your wellness journey.
Sincerely Yours,
Aly Khan Ramzi

Let customers speak for us
from 29 reviewsHave been taking Rakaposhi Shilajit for 3 months now. It’s a quality product that gives me more energy and clarity of mind. Highly recommended
I felt an instant metabolic difference. I thought maybe it's a first day effect. But week 1 and there is a newfound physical and mental boost. I take it when I wake up, so I know my stomach is empty. Will buy again. Thanks whoever is involved in this.
It’s funny how i got into Shilajit, it was on sale in the gym , and i received a sample. At the beginning i was only noticing boost in energy for the day, and because of the taste i was a bit slow in my consumption. Then i read somewhere on the site you can mix it with hot back coffee or Tumeric.
Since i started doing that it neutralised ita organic taste . I’m so much lighter on my feet, mentally stronger, gym performance at least twice better.
My digestion is a lot improved too.
I’m now do not feel complete without Shilajit.
I have the chance to get it directly in Hong Kong, where the the main Asia distribution office is located. I’m now taking it 3/4 times per day.
As of now , it’s the only product i found in the market that is purely organic hand crafted from Himalayan mountains..
considering how nowadays difficult to get a decent raw organic testosterone booster trusted.
I’m 45 turning 46years old and it’s definitely a blessing having it. I also do a lot of ginger, garlic potions drink, but Shilajit ( this brand) is the only reliable i found so far.
One thing for sure it will definitely help.
I've been using Rakaposhi's Shilajit for over a year. Prior to that, I've tried other Shilajit brands. Rakaposhi stood out because of its consistent quality which says a lot about their standard of care. Rakaposhi has been a staple of mine in the office. It has improved my mental acuity in dealing with the demands of the day. It has also reduced my caffeine intake, so less jitters and sleepless nights! When I think of Shilajit, I look no further than Rakaposhi.
By far the best shilajit on the market. Highly recommended.
Highly recommend this unique, all natural supplement (if you can even call it that as it's so unique and nothing like I've ever taken it before). More energy, focus, and stamina with work and gym performance overall. Definitely worth the premium pricing.
After trying Rakaposhi’s Shilajit I noticed a significant boost in energy. I have recommended it to friends who have similarly experienced really positive results. It’s great for men in particular who are looking for increased performance in all aspects of life.
This product is so amazing it boost up a lot of energy to your body . I highly recommend, Rakaposhi Organics
Brilliant product. Gives you a boost of energy throughout the day and highly recommended especially if you play sports.
I'm struggling with sluggishness and low energy in the morning and usually need several cups of coffee to get going. I've been taking shilajit for 2 weeks now - first thing in the morning on empty stomach, BEFORE my coffee. And this boosts my mood and my energy levels way more than coffee - and it's much longer lasting. I will definitely keep taking it.
At first, I wasn't sure about the smell or the taste as it was a bit pungent however after using it, I actually began to enjoy the smell and taste; then one week later I began to so look forward to my cup in the morning. I feel stronger and more focused after each cup. Thank you, Aly, for bringing an incredible product to me.
I hv been taking 2 cans shilajit on daily basis already, I diluted with hot milk and turmeric, tastes gd, I found my energy level boosts especially in hectic days, and able to flight flu , trust my immune system has been enhanced, it’s becoming my daily habit of taking shilajit first thing in the morning , I am v grateful to come across the this wonderful nature treasures and will continue to take it !
This is authentic and pure shilajit, the owner takes every care into ensure high quality shilajit
I was interested in shilajit because there has been some research to confirm that real shilajit can increase testosterone for men.
I was skeptical of the cheap shilajit because real shilajit is actually very difficult to cultivate (in the high altitude of Himalayas) so I tried Rakaposhi Organics who claim they source it directly from there.
I also did bloodwork before and after taking their shilajit while keeping my routine exercise, diet and sleep fairly the same for a month to not skew the results.
The results were an increase of 43.2% (from 9.79nmol/L to 14.02nmol/L) in testosterone which I am very pleased.
Ordered my 2nd one and will conduct a 3rd test after as well.
I am impressed with the potency of Rakaposhi Organics Shilajit, especially for someone who has autoimmune syndrome, in attenuating the chronic fatigue I suffer often. I aim to continue on this product with my daily routines towards personal wellness.
