Methylene Blue
At low doses, Methylene Blue, the Cognitive and Mitochondrial enhancer. It's been shown to protect the brain from disease by acting as an electron-donor to the mitochondria which increases ATP production. ATP is the currency of life and the energy that powers humans. At ProActive IV, Methylene Blue infusions deliver essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream to induce relaxation and mitigate the effects of stress. Call the Rochester, Michigan office today to schedule your Methylene Blue infusion or use this website to book online.

Methylene Blue
What is Methylene Blue?
With years of research, Methylene Blue has shown promise to delay cellular aging and to enhance key mitochondrial biochemical pathways. At ProActive IV, we have effectively used it as a Nootropic and systemic detoxifier.
In 1891, German physician and noble prize recipient Paul Ehrlich pioneered the use of methylene blue in the treatment of malaria. Ehrlich discovered that Methylene Blue would quickly concentrate in the brain and selectively target diseased tissue in the body.
How does Methylene Blue work?
Your brain's neurons rely almost entirely on mitochondrial derived energy. Failure of mitochondrial function can affect the rest of your body, but it's particularly detrimental to your brain. This is where Methylene Blue steps in as one of the most important anti-aging and neurological disease preventing biological agents. By quickly crossing the blood brain barrier, it improves mitochondrial efficiency and respiration, acts as an antioxidant, and increases brain cell life span, resulting in improved memory and mood.
What benefits should I expect from Methylene Blue infusions?
Methylene blue improves memory by increasing brain cell respiration, or how the brain cell utilizes oxygen. It increases ATP (energy) production to provide more cellular energy for better overall brain function including cognition, mood, and memory.
At low doses, Methylene Blue has been shown to protect the brain from disease by acting as an electron-donor to the mitochondria which increases ATP production. ATP is the currency of life and the energy that powers humans. If our production of ATP declines, physical and mental performance declines. Even healthy individuals can benefit from a boost in ATP production. Methylene blue is also able to increase the amount of NAD+ produced by the mitochondria.
