You tried very hard to convince your audience not to take this substance on their own. But, on purpose, you did omit the cost to be paid for your consultation...And what about those who really need it and cannot afford your fees???
Paul, is the reagent grade MB heavy metal an Internet myth? I've seen several say this, but nobody ever shows any lab data. I have not found lab data anywhere. You confirmed you looked a lot, so can you please provide evidence of metal toxicity, heavy metal content in reagent grade. Thanks! PS, please do not add to this Internet myth by not providing links to metal toxicity lab reports.
Hello, I am a retired Chemist who worked in the Pharmeceutical industry for many years. You have a good question concerning the lab data. Let me break it down for you. Drug company XYZ receives a shipment of MB (USP grade). This shipment would be accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (C of A). The United States Pharmacopia (USP) has an entire set of tests that need to performed on that material. For example, the USP limit for Arsenic contamination is 8 parts per million (ppm). Drug company XYZ may sample the material and test for Arsenic according to the USP, upon confirmation of the testing, results are often reported as "Meets Test". This is unfortunate for the consumer because they often will never see any of the lab data, for example, did the test result come back at 7 ppm or less than 0.1 ppm. You most likely will never be able to find this out, all you get is a "Meets Test" for a specification of 8 ppm. As for me I would really like to know what the Arsenic level is, but seeing USP grade is the safest compared to most other grades. Now concerning Reagent Grade, an average person might look at the label and see 99.9% pure and think wow, this is safe. When in fact the opposite is true. That 0.1% equals 1000 ppm of unknown or undisclosed impurities. I don't want to be taking in quantities of arsenic or other heavy metals that may be in the order of hundreds of ppm. Hope that helps, unfortunately this is a larger conversation that would take too much time to fully explain.
Why are you going for the lowest level of healthcare? You CAN do better . Look up Functional Medicine Doctors ( there is a society , u need to do a little research). Most of them can work remotely ( ie Zoom or similar and lab results can be emailed or FAXED to them. Easy peasy .
I've been using MB for about 7 years now based on the research and recommendations of Dr Francisco Gonzales Lima (University of Texas, Austin) Back when I started it was an exceptionally rare supplement, (my GP thinks I am very odd). I had trouble finding a MB dealer so I found a lab supplier which provides a certificate of analysis with every batch. It is actually a little more pure than the USP standards require so I'm comfortable taking it. Thanks for the video.
No doctor that I know would prescribe this stuff, so that obviously is a problem. I understand the caution however and will certainly adhere to that suggestion. Ultimately, it means I probably won't be able to get the safe stuff so I'm screwed if I want to use it.
Try Functional Medicine Doctors!!! They OFTEN work remotely, ie over Zoom etc. There is a society of functional medicine doctors , just do a search. These may be a naturopath orr and MD and additional study and certification is required. These are more holistic practitioners.
That simply means that it is as pure as the stuff that comes from the pharmaceutical companies. They're allowed to say that because it's the truth, unless of course, they're lying about it. The word pharmaceutical isn't some magic word that only certain people are allowed to say.
What is an average cost for USP certified Methylene Blue from a pharmacy? Does the USP Convention go after sellers who might falsely state that their product is USP certified? Is there a large price difference between industrial grade and pharmaceutical grade?
Thank you for the service of improving our knowledge about taking care of our health. I just found you and immediately subscribed. Now on to binge watching 🙋♀️🙏.
I wish I knew where to find a doctor who knows about this and so many other things I've learned on your podcasts. Thank you so much. I just found you and subscribed.❤
@@infiniLor Tyramine (TIE-ruh-meen) is an amino acid that helps regulate blood pressure. It occurs naturally in the body, and it's found in certain foods. Medications called monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) block monoamine oxidase, which is an enzyme that breaks down excess tyramine in the body. Blocking this enzyme helps relieve depression. If you take an MAOI and you eat high-tyramine foods, tyramine can quickly reach dangerous levels. This can cause a serious spike in blood pressure and require emergency treatment. Avoid consuming foods that are high in tyramine if you take an MAOI. You may need to continue following a low-tyramine diet for a few weeks after you stop the medication. Tyramine occurs naturally in small amounts in protein-containing foods. As these foods age, the tyramine levels increase. Tyramine amounts can vary among foods due to different processing, storage and preparation methods. You can't reduce the amount of tyramine in a food by cooking it. Examples of foods high in tyramine include: Strong or aged cheeses, such as aged cheddar, Swiss and Parmesan; blue cheeses such as Stilton and Gorgonzola; and Camembert. Cheeses made from pasteurized milk are less likely to contain high levels of tyramine - for example, American cheese, cottage cheese, ricotta, farmer cheese and cream cheese. Cured meats, which are meats treated with salt and nitrate or nitrite, such as dry-type summer sausages, pepperoni and salami. Smoked or processed meats, such as hot dogs, bologna, bacon, corned beef or smoked fish. Pickled or fermented foods, such as sauerkraut, kimchi, caviar, tofu or pickles. Sauces, such as soy sauce, shrimp sauce, fish sauce, miso and teriyaki sauce. Soybeans and soybean products. Snow peas, broad beans (fava beans) and their pods. Dried or overripe fruits, such as raisins or prunes, or overripe bananas or avocados. Meat tenderizers or meat prepared with tenderizers. Yeast-extract spreads, such as Marmite, brewer's yeast or sourdough bread. Alcoholic beverages, such as beer - especially tap or homebrewed beer - red wine, sherry and liqueurs. Combination foods that contain any of the above ingredients. Improperly stored foods or spoiled foods. While you're taking an MAOI, your doctor may recommend eating only fresh foods - not leftovers or foods past their freshness dates. Beverages with caffeine also may contain tyramine, so your doctor may recommend limits.
Please do a video on drugs and supplements that can lead to serotonin syndrome when taken with MB. I was taking sea buckthorn with it and was high as a kite. I looked through my other supplements, which included boron, and that increases serotonin too. Then I discovered that creatine, which I was also taking, also boosts serotonin. Could the serotonin effects in these supplements lead to serotonin syndrome, or is it only SSRIs? I'm avoiding it for the time being.
I use all this supps as well and since 7 days added methylene blue and just 10 drops I'm high the whole day 😂 I had this whit nadh 20mg as well may we are very sensible on this kind of stuff😮
Other doctors/researchers have said if you're taking HIGH doses of antidepressants mixing the two drugs is not a good idea. However, apparently a regimen of low-doseage serotonin uptake drug and LOW DOSE MB can be useful. But you should have a good understanding of what constitutes low/high dosages of both drugs. Do your homework. 😊
Hi im enjoying watching your videos and learning so much. I have Essential Thrombocythaemia because i have a CAL R EXON 9 gene mutation that makes my bone marrow make too many platelets. My platelets are currently 939. A friend recommended Methylene Blue. Im not sure is is safe for me to take it and im also not sure how to get a quality product?
Hello doctor. I am new here. I deal with multiple autoimmune disorders. No matter what diet, vitamins , or herbal tinctures I try, it's a losing battle. I spent thousands on supplements recommended by doctors on RU-vid. I've given up on doctors. The only medication I have left to stop is levothyroxine. My body is attacking itself. I wish doctors could find out why? I have a long list of disorders. I do have the HLA B27 marker for ankylosing spondylitis that went into remission 15 years ago. Of the list of disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and chronic pain syndrome. Not to mention, my latest scan revealed one kidney stone, gallstones, fatty liver disease, and a small cyst on my kidney. All I eat is vegetables, lots of greens,could this be toxins? I'm not a meat eater just chicken. My husband's my witness, I'm not a bad eater. I am extremely skinny. I have no muscle anymore.
Is there a source for finding a MB Practitioner? For low dose naltrexone for example, there is LDN research trust, wherr practitioners and compounding pharmacies are listed.
A urologist I saw wanted to prescribe Eurogesic Blue to take “as needed”. Well, that would mean every patient is supposed to ask the pharmacy their grade? Well, the urologist never mentioned that to me.
