The Mitochondrial Triad Presentation, Pt. 2 (Methylene Blue)

In today's episode, we will pick up where we left off last week during my "podcast" presentation of The Mitochondrial Triad lecture I gave last month in Rome. Undoubtedly, you are getting more nuggets of wisdom in this podcast version, as I am able to go down various rabbit holes and dig deeper into the details since there are no time constraints. For example, today's episode that is entirely on the topic of methylene blue is longer in duration than my entire presentation at the symposium in Rome. Last week, I covered the first two topics of my talk: mitochondria (i.e., why they are important for health and why mitochondrial dysfunction is the bane of wellness and healthspan) and red light therapy. This week, again, we will cover the topic of methylene blue (MB) in great depth; including the history of MB, the mechanisms of MB, the health benefits and correlative research on MB, and considerations surrounding MB for those deliberating the potential use of MB for their health and wellness goals. ​​With that being said, make sure your brain is full of flowing electrons and buckle up for an information-packed episode!
