Methylene Blue IV Therapy
What is Methylene Blue?
Methylene blue is an inexpensive blue dye that was developed by scientists in the 1800s for the textile industry but was found to have profound medical benefits. It is still used today in hospital settings for certain medical procedures, in laboratories to stain tissues for microscopy, and as the only cure for carbon monoxide and cyanide poisonings.
Over 90% of diseases that exist today are caused by dysfunction in our cell’s mitochondria. When our cells are unable to use oxygen to produce energy, methylene blue can act like the missing enzyme to quickly restore normal mitochondrial respiration, oxygen consumption, and energy production. Methylene blue is a potent antimicrobial capable of killing fungal, viral, and bacterial infections. It is a powerful preventive medication and treatment for malaria. It is a potent antidote for chemical poisonings and overdoses. Methylene blue has neuroprotective properties to aid stroke and traumatic brain injury patients and is an effective anti-anxiety and anti-depressive medication.
Contraindications & Side Effects Linked to Methylene Blue
- Methylene Blues is not intended for patients who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, breast feeding, or G6PD deficient.
- Some patients may experience a Herxheimer (HERX) reaction. A HERX reaction may cause fatigue, nausea, headache or muscle pain due to accumulated toxins leaving the body.
- If you experience a HERX reaction, stop the protocol for 48 hours and then resume slowly again.
How Does Methylene Blue Work?
Any stress on the body can result in inflammation which signals the production of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators. This inflammatory response reduces energy production in the mitochondria. The fastest replicating cells in our bodies are the immune cells and the neurological cells. When mitochondrial energy production goes down, our immune and neurological systems are often first to show signs of dysfunction (chronic infections, autoimmune issues, dementia and Parkinson’s symptoms).
Methylene blue selectively targets the cells most in need of healing first. So the sicker a person is, the more profound methylene blue effects can be. Methylene blue quickly concentrates in the brain and can be used to reverse metabolic dysfunction in the brain and neurological system that lead to symptoms of dementia and Parkinson’s disease.
