What Brand of Methylene Blue Does Dr. Berg Recommend?Updated 23 days ago
Understanding Methylene Blue: Usage and Potential Benefits
While Dr. Berg doesn't have a specific product recommendation for Methylene Blue, if you're considering trying it, I suggest looking for a USP-grade, pharmaceutical-grade 1% solution. This type of solution typically provides about 0.5 mg per drop.
The suggested usage for Methylene Blue is generally between 0.5 mg to 4 mg per kilogram of body weight. For example, if someone weighs 185 lbs (approximately 84 kg), a suggested daily intake could be around 42 drops. To illustrate, if Dr. Berg were to take it, he might consume 10 drops in water four times a day.
Methylene Blue is available over the counter and has a long history in medicine. It was notable as the first fully synthetic drug, one of the first antibiotics, and even one of the first antipsychotic drugs. Historically, it was also used to treat malaria and is currently used as an antidote for both cyanide and carbon monoxide poisoning. In lower doses, Methylene Blue can act as an antioxidant.
Methylene Blue shows potential in helping with a range of conditions, including:
Septic shock
Anaphylaxis
Viruses
Fatigue
Brain fog
Memory loss
Depression
Candida
Nerve degeneration
Gout
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Inflammation
Important Note: Methylene Blue should not be taken by individuals who are on SSRI medications. Always check with your doctor before taking Methylene Blue to discuss any other potential contraindications or interactions with your current medications and health conditions.
