Methylene Blue, otherwise known as Methylthioninium Chloride is a synthetic blue compound that has gained interest within the sphere of integrative medicine due to its unique physiological effects.

It acts as an antioxidant, helping to combat oxidative stress in the body and protect cells from damage. This process may have a positive effect on conditions relating to oxidative stress such as neurodegenerative diseases. Additionally, Methylene Blue has been studied for its potential neuroprotective effects in conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease as it works to protect neurons from damage, improving cognitive function. Because of this, Methylene Blue is also used as a nootropic to boost mental clarity and focus.

This product has shown to have anti-inflammatory properties which may be beneficial in conditions characterised by inflammation, such as arthritis. Methylene Blue boosts mitochondrial function which is important for energy production in cells. This may be beneficial for conditions where the mitochondria is impaired such as fatigue, post viral fatigue, weakness, brain fog.
