Methylene Blue and Long Covid: Current Theories and Ongoing Research
Reading Time: 11 minutes. Methylene blue is being explored for Long COVID due to antiviral actions (spike–ACE2 blockade, Zn2+ ionophore effects, RdRp inhibition, lysosomal pH elevation) and immunomodulation (NLRP3, NF-κB, PD-1–SHP2). In vitro data show low micromolar inhibition; small acute COVID-19 trials suggest improved SpO2 and inflammatory markers without a clear mortality benefit. Its mitochondrial…
Methylene Blue and G6PD Deficiency: Why It Can Be Unsafe
Reading Time: 6 minutes. Methylene blue treats methemoglobinemia via NADPH-dependent reduction to leucomethylene blue. In G6PD deficiency, NADPH is insufficient, so the drug cannot reduce methemoglobin and instead amplifies oxidative stress. This triggers Heinz body formation, acute hemolysis, and can worsen hypoxia. FDA labelling lists G6PD deficiency as a contraindication. Warning signs include dark urine,…
Unlocking the Power of Mind-Body Harmony for Wellness
Reading Time: 7 minutes. Your mind and body form an intricate partnership that directly influences your overall wellness. Through the vagus nerve, your thoughts and emotions elicit physical responses that affect everything from heart rate to immune function. You can enhance this connection through simple daily practices, such as mindful breathing, movement meditation, and emotional…
Methylene Blue Vs DLPA: Comparing Mechanisms, Benefits, and Safety
Reading Time: 8 minutes. Methylene blue is FDA‑approved for methemoglobinemia and hospital‑supervised; DLPA is an OTC supplement. Methylene blue inhibits MAO‑A and nitric oxide synthases, supports mitochondria, and can modestly enhance memory at low doses, but risks serotonin toxicity and is contraindicated in G6PD deficiency and pregnancy. DLPA combines D- and L-phenylalanine to prolong endorphins…
Methylene Blue Vs Caffeine: Cognitive Benefits, Energy, and Key Differences
Reading Time: 6 minutes. Methylene blue enhances cognition by stabilising mitochondrial electron cycling, thereby stabilising ATP and reducing oxidative stress. Small trials suggest improved memory and processing under load, with steadier effects. Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors, increasing arousal, attention, and reaction time; however, tolerance and rebound fatigue are common, with sleep disruption occurring at higher doses.…
Unlocking the Secrets of Optimal Testosterone Health
Reading Time: 6 minutes. To reveal the secrets of ideal testosterone health, you need to understand how vital balanced levels are for your physical, emotional, and sexual well-being. Testosterone regulates libido, muscle mass, and bone density, and its decline can lead to fatigue and changes in mood. Factors such as genetics and diet influence testosterone…
Unravelling Cancer: Lifestyle, Metabolism, and Prevention
Reading Time: 7 minutes. Recent evidence suggests cancer operates primarily as a metabolic disorder, not just a genetic disease. You’ll find that lifestyle factors considerably impact your cellular metabolism and mitochondrial function, with traditional societies exhibiting remarkably lower cancer rates. Through strategic nutritional interventions, regular physical activity, and reduced exposure to environmental toxins, you can…
Methylene Blue Weight Loss: Can It Support Metabolic Health?
Reading Time: 11 minutes. Methylene blue is a redox-active dye that supports mitochondrial electron transport, improving ATP production and shifting metabolism toward fatty acid oxidation. It can transiently raise the NAD+/NADH ratio, engage Sirtuin 3, and signal via AMPK, which may enhance insulin sensitivity. Early trials in obese adults suggest short-term improvements in glucose handling;…
Ivermectin Medication Guide: Dosage, Side Effects, and Treatment Uses
Reading Time: 14 minutes. When using ivermectin, you’ll take a dosage based on your body weight, typically 0.15-0.2 mg/kg orally for parasitic infections such as onchocerciasis and strongyloidiasis. It is FDA-approved for these conditions, as well as topically for head lice and rosacea. Watch for side effects such as dizziness, diarrhoea, and allergic reactions, and…
