Inside the mitochondria, the parts of your cells that produce energy, it can act as an alternative electron carrier, passing electrons along the chain that makes ATP. Most of this research comes from laboratory and animal studies, and human research at supplement doses is still limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy quality matters with methylene blue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMethylene blue is sold in industrial, laboratory and aquarium grades that aren't made for people to take. This product is USP grade, the purity standard set by the United States Pharmacopeia. Every batch is tested by an independent lab for identity, purity, potency, heavy metals, microbes and residual solvents, and a QR code on each bottle links to the Certificate of Analysis for that batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy these strengths\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMethylene blue works within a narrow window. In laboratory research, low concentrations support electron flow in the mitochondria, while much higher concentrations do the opposite. The human brain-imaging studies people often cite used single doses of about 4 mg\/kg (roughly 280 mg), far above any capsule here. The 8, 12.5 and 20 mg strengths are low-dose formats. If you're new to methylene blue, the 8 mg strength is the most conservative place to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat methylene blue may support*\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNormal mitochondrial function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCellular energy production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmount per serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e8 mg, 12.5 mg or 20 mg methylene blue (USP grade), depending on strength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e1 capsule\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottle sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e8 mg: 60 capsules. 12.5 mg and 20 mg: 30 or 60 capsules\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003eMicrocrystalline cellulose, hypromellose capsule (vegetarian), magnesium stearate (vegetable source)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTesting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003eThird-party tested every batch; QR code on the bottle links to the batch COA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px;\"\u003eUSA, in a cGMP-registered facility.
