As a long-time shift worker and nutritionist, I’m breaking down what methylene blue really is, how it works in the body, and whether it’s worth your attention—especially if you’re juggling night shifts, fatigue, or brain fog.

This isn’t about fearmongering or hype—it’s about understanding the science and being smart with your health. If you’re curious about methylene blue or looking for practical, evidence-backed ways to support your brain while working odd hours, this episode is for you.
