“Methylene blue when we talk about the mitochondria using that mitochondrial membrane binds to cytochrome C oxidase and I think of it you know traditionally it's used when people have carbon Bon oxide poisoning they'll still use it you go in emergency your carbon monoxide poison it'll give you methylene blue and it helps your red blood cells displace the the carbon monoxide and put oxygen there and so you're it's an oxygenator.”
Main Takeaways:
- Methylene blue is used in emergency medicine for carbon monoxide poisoning.
- It helps displace carbon monoxide from red blood cells, enhancing oxygenation.

“it's 10 milligrams of methylene blue combined and you've got some other things in the cocktail version that you make take it in the morning on an empty stomach yeah I you could take it with food though again it's going to be well absorbed um it will interesting to people and I need to say it will turn your urine green or blue for how long um about 24 hours hour depending and that be kind of fun yeah well and a good caveat is if it doesn't and I've had patients then that's interesting to me as a clinician because it means that your mitochondria is not working well right like the way I see this is you should get spill over you shouldn't kind of use it all and if you're not there's something wrong there that you're using all of it and you're getting no spill over back into your bloodstream which gets filtered into your bladder your urine which you urinate out that and that's happened with a couple patients so it's like oh wow you had no green or blue urine there's a problem with your mitochondria.”
Main Takeaways:
- Methylene blue is taken in the morning, preferably on an empty stomach, but can be taken with food.
- It is well absorbed and can change the color of urine to green or blue for about 24 hours.
- Lack of color change in urine might indicate mitochondrial dysfunction.

“there's the you know a mild MAOI inhibitor which is monamine oxidase inhibitor yeah which going to allow things like serotonin to work a little bit longer in that synaptic Clift um you know and you've expounded way better than I can about serotonin and dop me and how those work but um there is a cognitive enhancement from it for sure it's very real and we have a lot of people using it and love it it also seems to be an antiviral you know you get this again that's probably through the mitochondria making your mitochondria more efficient it's a prescription drug it's a prescription drug but there's there's now and I don't totally understand it there's now strictly over-the-counter neutral supplement options that are methylene blue for sure anyone can go online and buy it for sure trust me now now there there are going to be a few and and you talked about turning your mouth blue if you take a liquid form right uh and we'll do that sometimes in the office when we're doing other treatments we'll give a big dose of methylene blue to kind of help fuel kind of quickly make a…”
Main Takeaways:
- Methylene blue acts as a mild MAOI, potentially enhancing cognitive function by allowing neurotransmitters like serotonin to remain active longer.
- It has antiviral properties and may enhance mitochondrial efficiency.
- Available both as a prescription and over-the-counter supplement.
Notes: Used in clinical settings to boost ATP production during IV treatments.
