ModerateGBS: 73 (Moderate-High Risk)toxicity

Methylene Blue Protocol

Developer: Various researchers, emerging use

Ongoing use for mitochondrial support, acute use for infections

Protocol Overview

Low-dose methylene blue as mitochondrial enhancer and cognitive booster. Electron cycler that improves mitochondrial respiration. Pharmaceutical-grade USP required.

Conditions Treated

Cognitive enhancement

mitochondrial support

antiviral

methemoglobinemia treatment

Protocol Steps

Source: USP pharmaceutical grade methylene blue only (not fish tank or industrial grade)

Low-dose protocol: 0.5-4mg/kg body weight (typical 50-200mg for adults)

Dosing: Once daily, usually morning (can cause blue-tinged urine and insomnia if taken late)

Form: Capsules or liquid (dilute in water, stains teeth - use straw)

Cognitive enhancement: 0.5-1mg/kg for nootropic effects

Antiviral: 2-4mg/kg during infection (COVID, flu)

Contraindications: G6PD deficiency (absolutely contraindicated), SSRIs/MAOIs (serotonin syndrome risk)

Monitoring: Methemoglobin levels if using higher doses long-term

Cycle: Some cycle (5 days on, 2 off) to prevent tolerance, others use daily

Side effects: Blue/green urine (normal), nausea if too high dose, headache

Key Resources

Research by Francisco Gonzalez-Lima, Hemo-15 studies, COVID antiviral research, mitochondrial medicine literature

Contraindications & Risks

G6PD deficiency (causes hemolysis), pregnancy/nursing, SSRIs/MAOIs, serotonin syndrome risk, can interfere with pulse oximetry readings

Important Notes

FDA-approved for methemoglobinemia. Emerging research for cognitive enhancement, mitochondrial support, neuroprotection. Antiviral properties (inhibits virus replication). Used by biohackers. Must use pharmaceutical USP grade. Very cheap (~$20/year). Blue urine is expected. Promising but more research needed for off-label uses.

Also Effective For

Chronic Fatigue / Fibromyalgia Chronic EBV / Mono Reactivation

Critical Safety Warning

This protocol is documented for educational purposes only. The Gabriel Bullshit Score (GBS) of 73 reflects significant institutional response and controversy. Some alternative health protocols have resulted in serious harm or death.

Always consult with qualified healthcare professionals before beginning any treatment. Do not delay or forego proven medical care.

About GBS Score

The Gabriel Bullshit Score reflects the magnitude of institutional response, controversy, and documented concerns. Higher scores indicate greater institutional pushback, not necessarily inefficacy. This is a research tool, not medical advice.
