Methylene blue is a valuable antioxidant that has a whole host of amazing health benefits. Apart from assisting in killing viruses, aiding in anti-aging, and even fighting cancer, recent information released by the World Health Organization (WHO) indicates that methylene blue can be further used alongside low-level laser therapy to help fight off COVID-19.
Methylene Blue and Low-Level Laser Therapy: A New Technique for COVID-19 Decontamination
In the war against the pandemic, the WHO recently added a new therapy as a Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) decontamination method— after receiving promising research study results. The updated guidelines published by the WHO state that after conducting a thorough study, Methylene Blue and Light consistently displayed the ability to kill SARS-CoV-2 when applied to respirators and masks.
Due to the success of this study, the WHO is confident that this therapy, as well as Dry Heat, may potentially be used as a new salvaging technique for decontaminating medical masks and respirators.The study was led by Drs.Thomas Lendvay and James Chen alongside their colleagues, and they are continuing to conduct research to improve the use of technology in our healthcare system.

How Does Methylene Blue and Low-Level Laser Therapy Work?
Methylene blue is used as a potent antioxidant and also as a dye for medical purposes. This biochemical also comes with the following benefits:
- Assists in killing viruses
- Boosts cellular energy production
- Increases anti-aging
- Helps fight cancer
Methylene blue is great at improving your cellular energy levels and protecting your nerves through anti-microbial function. When you pair this biochemical up with photodynamic therapy (PDT) or low-level laser therapy, it can even be used to successfully target and destroy cancer cells without harming the other tissues in your body.
Can Methylene Blue Treatments Help with Anti-Aging?
Methylene blue assists in building connective tissue and also works as an antioxidant. This allows your body to build new skin and even delay the process of cellular death so your healthy skin cells remain alive and active for longer.
Not only does this biochemical help in building and maintaining new skin, it may also increase your elastin and collagen levels by influencing the expression of proteins in your skin.
