Benefits of Methylene Blue
Cognitive Support and Memory: Preliminary research suggests that methylene blue may support cognitive function, improve memory, and protect against age-related cognitive decline due to its effects on brain mitochondrial efficiency.
Anti-Aging Effects: Due to the compound’s ability to combat oxidative stress, it is being investigated for healthier skin and reduced visible signs of aging. Methylene blue's unique influence at the cellular level has led to its popularity in anti-aging skincare and wellness routines.
Energy and Stamina: By augmenting ATP creation, methylene blue may help maintain energy levels and fight fatigue. Supplemental methylene blue, such as methylene blue drops, have not been approved by the FDA for this use.
Antimicrobial and FDA-Approved Uses: Methylene blue is recognized for use in the treatment of methemoglobinemia and is being explored for its antiviral and antibacterial potential.
