Episode # 107: Methylene Blue: Health Benefits, Applications, and Myths

My guest this week is Dr. Scott of Troscriptions.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and I discuss methylene blue, nicotine, CBD and of course Troscriptions products as a whole. Methylene Blue is one of the most powerful mitochondrial optimizers, boosting energy levels, enhancing memory, improving focus, protecting the brain, and even works as an anti-infectious aid.

Dr. Scott dispels some of the myths going around about methylene blue and why they are bogus. We touch on dosing and why his products are designed with a particular type of delivery method making them highly absorbable and more bioavailable. The applications for methylene blue might surprise you. For instance, it’s just as effective for improving focus as it is anti-infectious. There are different ways to use methylene blue depending on your goals. Are you wanting to improve focus? Calm down at the end of the day, or need something to get you back on track post viral infection? Methylene blue can help! 

Are there contraindications? Sure. We discuss who should not take methylene blue. We also discuss side effects for particular subsets of people. If you have been following the methylene blue chatter this is one you will find very helpful to fill in the gaps of what you may or may not know already!

Berkeley Life is dedicated to supporting healthy nitric oxide levels. Nitric oxide is a vital molecule made naturally in the body, responsible for vasodilation and circulation. As we age we produce less, resulting in diminished blood flow. Berkeley Life supplements provide a dietary nitrate that the body converts into nitric oxide. This helps to maintain healthy circulation, delivering nutrients where they need to go. Nitric oxide also has topical impacts. Berkeley Life's new topical nitric oxide serum combines vitamin C and nitrite to create nitric oxide gas directly on the skin delivering oxygen and nutrients.
