If cells are unable to generate enough energy to carry the processes of health homeostasis, they may become dysfunctional because of imbalanced cell bioenergetics leading to a state of dis-ease. Methylene blue may aid the flow of electrons through the electron transport chain thereby promoting the generation of ATP.

By protecting against oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage, MB may provide a range of health benefits, including improved energy production, better cognitive function, and enhanced longevity.

MB targets free radicals and reactive oxygen species where they are generated, inside the mitochondria.  My preventing oxidative damage inside the mitochondria, it protects telomeres and neutralizes obstacles to healing at their source.

Methylene blue helps to improve cellular respiration by increasing oxygen consumption, which is necessary for the efficient production of ATP; the primary source of energy for cells which is essential for many of the processes that keep cells healthy and functioning properly.

Methylene blue has been found to have potential benefits for cognitive function, particularly regarding memory. Methylene blue may also have potential benefits for other aspects of cognitive function, such as attention and processing speed by increasing mitochondrial bioenergetics in the brain thus enhancing neural activity, and potentially protecting against some of the neurodegenerative damage associated with brain dis-ease.

Studies suggest that methylene blue may have potential as a treatment for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Researchers have begun to explore the potential of methylene blue for anti-aging effects due to its ability to improve cognitive function and enhance brain energy metabolism, known as nootropics.

Findings suggest that promoting mitochondrial biogenesis may be a potential strategy for improving functional recovery after spinal cord injury.

Methylene blue can promote autophagy, which is the process of removing damaged cells and debris, and inhibit microglial activation, which are immune cells of the brain that contribute to inflammation. These effects may help protect the brain from the damaging sequelae of traumatic brain injury.

By reducing inflammation in the brain, methylene blue may have potential uses for a range of neurological disorders. While more research is needed, the existing evidence suggests that it may be a promising option for those looking to improve their memory, sharpness, focus, and overall cognitive function.

Mitochondrial biogenesis can improve cell regeneration.  In this process, healthy mitochondria come along side damaged sick mitochondria and donate healthy factors needed to repair them.  An example is improvement in cardiovascular function by increasing the production of energy within heart cells, enhancing cardiac muscle function, thus improving overall cardiac health.

A support for people diagnosed with certain types of neoplastic dis-eases.

Mitochondrial biogenesis has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, which can help manage healthy blood sugar levels.

Cyanide poisoning, carbon monoxide exposure, urinary tract infections, constipation, and more.

Paul Ehrlich discovers methylene blue inhibits certain enzymes in the parasite which causes malaria.

Ehrlich coins the term “magic bullet” in describing medicinal uses for methylene blue and wins the 1908 Nobel Prize for his accomplishments in the field of immunology.

Methylene blue was found to be effective in treating a rare blood disorder called methemoglobinemia.

Because of it’s blood-repairing action, methylthionine chloride is found in every emergency room in America as an antidote to cyanide, carbon monoxide and other types of poisoning.
