PURE. PRECISE. POWERFUL.
Methylene Blue (MB) is a fascinating compound with a history dating back to the 1800s, when it was first discovered and utilised.
Today, Methylene Blue continues to attract significant scientific interest for its relationship with cellular energy production, mitochondrial function, cognitive function, oxidative balance and neurological processes.
Our Methylene Blue is a 99.9% pure USP Grade 1% solution, prepared using pure distilled water and stored in a light-protective Miron Glass bottle.
Methylene Blue has been researched for its potential to support cellular energy production, with research exploring its relationship with mitochondrial function and ATP production. This has led to interest in areas including energy, vitality, cognitive clarity, focus, concentration, mood, healthy ageing and cellular protection.
Research has also explored its ability to modulate neurotransmitter systems and its potential neuroprotective properties.
A study published in the Journal of Affective Disorders reported improvements in depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder following Methylene Blue use.
Research published in Nature Communications has also demonstrated that Methylene Blue could restore aspects of mitochondrial function in cells harbouring mitochondrial DNA mutations.
Methylene Blue also possesses antimicrobial properties and has been researched for activity against a range of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses and parasites. Research published in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology has highlighted its ability to inhibit replication of the malaria parasite.
It is one of those remarkable compounds that sits at the intersection of chemistry, cellular energy and biological research.
CELLULAR ENERGY
One of the most interesting areas of Methylene Blue research is its relationship with the mitochondria — the structures within our cells responsible for producing energy.
Methylene Blue has been studied for its potential to support mitochondrial electron transport and cellular energy production.
This is why it has attracted interest in relation to:
Cellular energy
Mitochondrial function
Cognitive performance
Focus and concentration
Neuroprotection
Oxidative balance
Healthy ageing
Overall vitality
Methylene Blue has also been researched for its potential to help safeguard cells from oxidative damage and support healthy cellular function.
At Sacred Water, we are particularly interested in the foundations of vitality — not simply how we feel on the surface, but the processes happening beneath it.
A COMPOUND WITH HISTORY
Methylene Blue isn't a new discovery or a passing wellness trend.
It has been studied for more than a century and has been utilised across medicine, chemistry, biology and laboratory science.
It is also important to understand what Methylene Blue is — and what it isn't.
Methylene Blue is a synthetic compound. It is not a natural substance and therefore cannot meaningfully be described as organic.
We believe in being transparent about our ingredients rather than using misleading language to make a product sound more natural than it is.
Its value lies in its purity, precision and fascinating chemistry.

SUGGESTED USE
We sell Methylene Blue for research purposes.
The information below is provided as a guide for those conducting research. It is not a suggestion of how much you personally should take, nor is it personalised medical advice.
HOW TO TAKE
For research purposes, the desired amount of Methylene Blue can be added to pure water and stirred.
WHEN TO TAKE
Research protocols vary considerably.
The original research and practitioner guidance around Methylene Blue includes both low-dose and weight-based approaches, and there is considerable debate around the appropriate amount depending upon the intended research goal.
SERVING INFORMATION
1 drop of this 1% Methylene Blue Solution contains approximately 0.5mg of Methylene Blue.
AMOUNT GUIDE
Some researchers have suggested 0.5–1mg per kilogram of body weight.
Others report using much smaller amounts.
Some protocols use weight-based amounts divided throughout the day, whilst others use lower doses for longer-term research.
There is therefore considerable variation in the research and practitioner opinions surrounding Methylene Blue.
RESEARCHER GUIDANCE
Dr J Lieurance
Has discussed approximately 0.5–1mg per kg of body weight daily, 2–4 days per week, and has authored Methylene Blue & Metabolic Medicine. He has also discussed 20–60mg daily as a therapeutic amount.
Dr Berg
Has previously discussed a higher weight-based amount divided throughout the day, although this information has since been removed from his published material.
Dr Gonzalez-Lima & Dr Mercola
Both have discussed lower-dose approaches, again around 0.5–1mg per kilogram of body weight for non-acute, longer-term goals.
These are published opinions and research protocols, not Sacred Water dosing recommendations.
There is currently no single universally accepted Methylene Blue protocol, and the amount used in research varies according to the purpose.
DURATION
Some research protocols incorporate breaks from use.
Methylene Blue has a reported half-life of approximately 6 hours, meaning that approximately half of the amount present is eliminated over that period.
Because protocols vary, the duration and frequency of use depend upon the purpose of the research.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much do I need for my specific health goal?
We cannot give you a specific amount for a particular health goal or condition.
The research information available online includes different protocols for different purposes, and there is no single established protocol for all uses of Methylene Blue.
The information above reflects some of the published guidance and opinions available.
If you are considering Methylene Blue for a health condition, or if you take medication, speak to an appropriately qualified healthcare professional rather than relying on a general online protocol.
Is this pharmaceutical grade?
It is USP Grade Methylene Blue with a stated purity of 99.9%.
USP is the United States Pharmacopeia standard.
Is your Methylene Blue free from formaldehyde?
Yes.
Our Methylene Blue is 100% free from formaldehyde.
What time of day would you suggest taking Methylene Blue?
Timing depends upon the research purpose.
Cognitive Benefits & Energy → Morning or Early Afternoon
Methylene Blue has been researched in relation to mitochondrial function and cellular energy production. Some people therefore prefer earlier use rather than later in the day.
Anti-Inflammatory or Antioxidant Research → Flexible Timing
Where Methylene Blue is being researched for antioxidant or neuroprotective properties, timing may be more flexible.
Mood & Neuroprotection → Morning to Early Afternoon
Methylene Blue has monoamine oxidase-inhibiting activity, which can influence neurotransmitter systems. Some people therefore avoid taking it later in the day if they experience increased alertness or sleep disturbance.
Always approach use cautiously, particularly when taking medication.
Is Methylene Blue safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
There is limited information establishing safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding, speak with a qualified healthcare professional before considering Methylene Blue.
Should I use Vitamin C when taking Methylene Blue?
There are different approaches discussed within the Methylene Blue research community.
Some people mix Vitamin C with Methylene Blue and allow it to stand for several hours, whilst others simply take Vitamin C on the same day.
There is also discussion suggesting that short-term Methylene Blue research does not necessarily require Vitamin C.
For this reason, we do not recommend a specific Vitamin C protocol or require Vitamin C to be mixed into the solution.
If you choose to use Vitamin C alongside Methylene Blue, L-Ascorbate is one form discussed in this context.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Because this product is supplied for research purposes, we do not provide personalised dosing instructions.
Do not double the amount to compensate for a missed dose.
If you are following a protocol prescribed or recommended by a healthcare professional, follow their instructions.
How should Methylene Blue be stored?
Store at room temperature, away from direct light and moisture.
Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children and pets.
Because Methylene Blue is light-sensitive, keeping it protected from light is particularly important.
Is Methylene Blue tested for heavy metals?
Methylene Blue is a synthetic single-ingredient compound, rather than a naturally harvested substance.
It is manufactured as a defined chemical compound rather than being extracted from a plant or mineral source.
Where is your Methylene Blue from?
Our Methylene Blue is produced in the USA and is USP Grade.
Is Methylene Blue organic?
No.
There is no such thing as "organic Methylene Blue".
Methylene Blue is a synthetic compound created by humans. Calling it organic would be misleading.
We prefer to be completely transparent about this.
Is Methylene Blue safe to take with Glycine?
There are no well-documented or well-studied interactions between Methylene Blue and Glycine.
However, Methylene Blue affects neurotransmitter systems and Glycine is involved in neurotransmission, so combining them could theoretically influence brain chemistry.
If combining supplements, proceed cautiously and speak with a healthcare professional if you have concerns, particularly if you experience symptoms such as headaches, confusion or mood changes.
The lack of substantial research means that definitive claims about this combination cannot be made.
I am using molecular hydrogen, activated charcoal, Carbon 60, White Willow and Lion's Mane. Is Methylene Blue safe to take with these?
There are no well-established interaction studies covering every possible combination of Methylene Blue with these supplements.
Unless a combination has been properly studied, definitive claims about safety are difficult to make.
If you are combining Methylene Blue with other supplements or medicines, proceed cautiously and seek professional advice where appropriate.
Do not assume that "natural" means there is no possibility of interaction.
Can I stir my Methylene Blue in water with a metal spoon?
Yes.
A clean, non-reactive metal spoon such as stainless steel can be used to stir Methylene Blue into water.
Avoid reactive metals such as aluminium or copper.
Will it still work if I drink it through a straw?
The method of drinking a liquid does not inherently change the chemical properties of Methylene Blue.
However, because Methylene Blue is a powerful dye, using a straw may help reduce contact with the teeth and mouth.
Will the blue dye stain my mouth?
Methylene Blue can temporarily stain the mouth, tongue and teeth blue.
The colour generally fades as the dye is diluted and removed.
Rinsing with water and brushing your teeth can help reduce temporary staining.
What exactly is Methylene Blue?
Methylene Blue is a synthetic dye and chemical compound.
Its chemical formula is:
C₁₆H₁₈ClN₃S
It has been studied for more than a century and continues to be investigated across a range of scientific fields.
It says 1% solution but then it says 99.9% — which is it?
Both statements refer to different things.
99.9% refers to the purity of the Methylene Blue itself.
1% refers to the concentration of Methylene Blue in the finished aqueous solution.
The solution is prepared by dissolving the purified Methylene Blue in distilled water.
There is no separation and no filler — the solution is the liquid inside the bottle.
1% solution. 99.9% pure Methylene Blue.
What is the manufacturing process? Is plastic used?
The Methylene Blue is manufactured using non-toxic, chemical-resistant equipment and containers, before being transferred into the final light-protective Miron Glass bottle.
Methylene Blue degrades when exposed to light, which is why the final packaging is designed to protect it.
The process is designed to minimise unnecessary exposure to plastics and the finished product is stored in Miron Glass.
