What is Methylene Blue by Biaxol?
Methylene blue works on the mitochondria, which is why it turns up in longevity and cognition stacks. It also turns your urine blue and it does not mix with antidepressants.
Also sold as methylthioninium chloride or MB.
Methylene blue acts as an electron carrier inside mitochondria, effectively giving the energy production chain an alternative route when the usual one is congested. That is the basis for the effects on mental clarity and cellular energy. It is also an antioxidant at low doses, though the relationship reverses at higher ones, which is why small doses are the point rather than a limitation.
Methylene Blue benefits
- Supports mitochondrial energy production directly
- Reported improvements in mental clarity, focus and mood
- Antioxidant activity at the low doses used here
- Sodium ascorbate included at 400mg, which keeps it in the active form
- Two capsule serving, so the dose is defined rather than measured from a solution

A full serving is two capsules, giving 10mg. Start with one and see how it suits you before taking the full serving; this is a compound where less is genuinely the point.
The sodium ascorbate is vitamin C, included to keep the methylene blue in its reduced, active form rather than as a token addition.

Who is Methylene Blue for?
People interested in the cognitive and mitochondrial end of this catalogue rather than anything to do with training. It is one of the few products here bought for the head rather than the body.
It is the wrong purchase for anyone taking an antidepressant, for reasons set out below, and that rules out more people than you might expect.
How to use Methylene Blue
Swallow with water in the morning. Start with one capsule and move to the full two-capsule serving only once you know how it suits you.
Frequently asked questions
Why can I not take it with antidepressants?
Because methylene blue inhibits monoamine oxidase, the enzyme that breaks serotonin down. Combined with an SSRI, SNRI or MAOI that can push serotonin to dangerous levels.
Serotonin syndrome is a medical emergency, not a side effect to manage. If you take any antidepressant, do not use this product.
Why is my urine blue?
Because the compound is a dye and some of it is excreted unchanged. Blue or blue-green urine is completely normal on methylene blue and harmless.
It is worth knowing in advance, because it is alarming if nobody has told you.
Why start at such a low dose?
Because methylene blue behaves differently at different doses. At low doses it acts as an antioxidant and supports mitochondrial function; at high doses that relationship reverses.
So more is not better here in a way that is unusual even in this catalogue. Small doses are the intended use.
What is the sodium ascorbate for?
It is vitamin C, and it keeps the methylene blue in its reduced form, which is the active one.
That is a functional inclusion rather than a filler, and it is why the serving is two capsules rather than one.
What does it actually feel like?
Most reports describe clearer thinking and steadier energy rather than anything resembling a stimulant. It is subtle.
If you are expecting something you can obviously feel come on, this is not that, and judging it after one dose will tell you very little.
