Unlocking the Role of Dopamine in Addiction and Recovery
Reading Time: 6 minutes. As I explore dopamine’s role in addiction and recovery, I find that it’s essential for our brain’s reward system, driving behaviours linked to pleasure and motivation. Dopamine dysregulation is central to addiction, often triggered by substances or behaviours that artificially boost its levels. Recovery involves resetting this balance, helping our brain…
Methylene Blue Mechanism of Action: How It Works in the Body
Reading Time: 11 minutes. Methylene blue is a redox-active electron shuttle. It accepts electrons from NADPH/NADH to form leucomethylene blue, which reduces Fe3+ methemoglobin to functional Fe2+ haemoglobin. In mitochondria, it bypasses impaired complexes, enhances cytochrome c oxidase efficiency, sustains ATP production, and limits superoxide production. It inhibits NO-stimulated soluble guanylyl cyclase, restoring vascular tone…
Methylene Blue and Skin Health: Anti-Ageing, Antioxidant, and Photodynamic Insights
Reading Time: 9 minutes. Methylene blue supports skin health via mitochondrial enhancement, antioxidant activity, and photodynamic benefits. It increases fibroblast oxygen consumption and ATP, reduces mitochondrial ROS, and outperforms common antioxidants. Low-dose use promotes collagen and elastin synthesis, thickens 3D skin models, and preserves extracellular matrix by limiting MMPs. It absorbs UVA/UVB rays, mitigates DNA…
Unlocking the Power of Your Subconscious Mind for Success
Reading Time: 7 minutes. Your subconscious mind greatly influences your success through deeply embedded belief systems and emotional patterns. By accessing theta brain waves (4-7 Hz) through meditation, you’ll tap into ideal states for reprogramming limiting beliefs and installing success-oriented thinking. Daily practices like morning affirmations, visualisation, and shadow work help transform your mental programming…
Is ADHD a Disability?
Reading Time: 13 minutes. Nearly 4.4% of adults worldwide live with ADHD, yet confusion persists about its classification as a disability. You’ll find that ADHD meets legal disability criteria when it substantially limits major life activities and affects an individual’s abilities to perform everyday activities. This distinction significantly affects workplace accommodations, educational support, and legal…
Methylene Blue Cancer: Research and Safety Insights
Reading Time: 10 minutes. Methylene blue shows mechanistic promise in oncology via photodynamic therapy and mitochondrial targeting, producing cytotoxic reactive oxygen species and disrupting tumour bioenergetics. Preclinical models, including TOV112D ovarian xenografts, demonstrate slowed growth and selective uptake, with minimal weight loss. It aids detection and surgical guidance, offering high sensitivity and cost-effectiveness. However, cancer…
Unlocking Health: The Power of Genetics and Lifestyle Choices
Reading Time: 7 minutes. Your genetic makeup greatly influences your mental and physical well-being through SNPs affecting neurotransmitter production and nutrient metabolism. Key genes like MTHFR and COMT impact anxiety levels, stress responses, and biochemical balance. You can enhance your health by combining genetic insights with targeted lifestyle modifications, including strategic supplementation and light exposure…
Essential Add ADHD Help Strategies for Better Focus and Well-Being
Reading Time: 19 minutes. Effective management of ADHD begins with early and timely assessments. These assessments are crucial for identifying the condition early, and the availability of ADHD services, including specialised professionals and clinics, can significantly support management strategies. To improve focus, try the Pomodoro technique (25 minutes of work, 5-minute breaks) and incorporate daily…
