Re: Article on Health Rising site Methylene blue?

Methylene blue is a chemical that has been used for medical purposes for ....centuries.

It acts in ways to help with body healing... like possible viruses and others.

But it has unwanted side effects...dyes urine blue, etc.

And I read that it is dangerous for people who are already on certain antidepressants because MB is also an antidepressant.

Although we often knock the pharmaceutical industry, it has tried to provide us with medicines that have less unwanted side effects.

But apparently MB is being studied again because it is cheap and readily available.

The article lists a source and recommended dosages.

Glad to see something that isn't a "biologic"....I'll take blue pee over all the biologic "side effects" any day (!!)

I'm going to research a bit more about this. I'd have to stop my current anti-depressant, which I'm very happy with.

But I especially thought the people suffering from long COVID might get some return to health with this.

Watch the pharm turn it into a very expensive replica of itself.

Been taking this for more than a year....I get empty large caps and fill...Take 3 daily and no more uti....I first bought Bluzone from a company in Australia then found a good one on amazon called Earth Harmony...I started out 1 capsule daily for a week then moved up to 2 then 3...No negative side effects but be careful as this stuff stains counters fingers ect....I use a paper plate and fill over that in case of any spillage.
