Our Members Asked:
Does methylene blue increase energy, slow aging, or improve memory?
Answer:
A viral video showing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. adding dark blue liquid drops to his drink on a flight had many people speculating that he may have been using methylene blue, which is sold as a supplement and promoted for anti-aging, improving memory and brain health, and increasing energy.
But does this compound, which has also been used as a dye to give blue jeans their signature color and as a medication to treat malaria and cyanide poisoning, really boost energy or aging, or improve memory, and is it safe?
