Methylene Blue and Sleep Requirements
After commencing to consume methylene blue I started needing closer to 7 hours sleep a night rather than an average of 9. I asked www.grok.com, “What would cause that?”
I received this in reply:
Methylene blue is a compound with a range of potential effects on the body, and its influence on sleep duration could stem from several mechanisms. While there’s limited direct research on methylene blue specifically reducing sleep requirements, some plausible explanations based on its known pharmacological properties include:
Mitochondrial Enhancement: Methylene blue is known to improve mitochondrial function by acting as an electron carrier in the electron transport chain, potentially increasing cellular energy production (ATP). Enhanced energy efficiency might reduce the body’s need for extended sleep to restore energy levels, allowing you to feel rested with fewer hours.
Neurotransmitter Modulation: Methylene blue inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO), which can increase levels of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. These changes could affect sleep regulation, potentially stabilizing or altering sleep architecture, leading to more efficient sleep cycles and less total sleep needed.
Circadian Rhythm Effects: By influencing cellular metabolism and oxidative stress, methylene blue might indirectly affect the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the brain’s circadian clock. Improved cellular health could lead to a more optimized circadian rhythm, reducing the time required for restorative sleep.
Reduced Oxidative Stress: Methylene blue has antioxidant properties, which may reduce oxidative stress in the brain and body. This could improve overall brain function and recovery during sleep, potentially shortening the duration needed for adequate rest.
Individual Variability: Your unique physiology, baseline health, or concurrent lifestyle factors (e.g., diet, stress, or activity levels) might interact with methylene blue’s effects, leading to a reduced sleep requirement. For example, if you were previously sleep-deprived or had suboptimal sleep quality, methylene blue’s effects might improve sleep efficiency.
Caveats and Considerations:
Dosage and Timing: The dose and timing of methylene blue consumption could influence its effects on sleep. Higher doses or taking it close to bedtime might have different impacts.
Limited Research: There’s sparse clinical data directly linking methylene blue to reduced sleep needs, so these mechanisms are speculative based on its known effects.
Side Effects: Be cautious of potential side effects, such as serotonin syndrome (especially if combined with MAO-inhibiting drugs), insomnia, or overstimulation, which could disrupt sleep if not managed properly.
If this change persists or you notice other symptoms (e.g., restlessness, mood changes), consult a healthcare provider to rule out unintended effects or interactions. They can also help assess whether the reduced sleep need is beneficial or a sign of underlying changes requiring attention.
I’m High Maintenance
I take aspirin for the headache caused by the Zyrtec I take for the hayfever I got from Relenza from the uneasy stomach from the Ritalin I take for the short attention span caused by the Scopederm Ts I take for the motion sickness I got from the Lomotil I take for the diarrhea caused by the Zenikal for the uncontrolled weight gain from the Paxil I take for the anxiety from the Zocor I take for my high cholesterol because exercise, a good diet, and regular chiropractic care are just too much trouble.
Long COVID Sufferers Are Actually mRNA Vaccine Injured & Are Suffering From V-AIDS…Vaccine Induced AIDS
Leading Scientists From The World Renowned Yale University Have Confirmed That COVID mRNA Vaccines Cause Vaccine Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
The Yale University School of Medicine found that mRNA injections alter human biology to create long term S2 spike protein production that increases over time.
The scientists warned that the COVID mRNA vaccines alter T-cell immunophenotypes which triggers VAIDS. The study was led by Bornali Bhattacharjee.
People not only collectively in essence felt forced to take an experimental vaccine or risk losing their jobs…we were lied to about it. It never stopped transmission, it never stopped contracting it & it was never safe.
The mRNA vaccines cause heart issues, blood clots, autoimmune disorders & so many more grave illnesses & death. This is the most egregious scandal in worldwide history. COVID-19 vaccines cause adverse events such as myocarditis & pericarditis, thrombosis & thrombocytopenia, Guillain–Barre syndrome, transverse myelitis & Bell’s Palsy
In addition, individuals have reported post-vaccination symptoms resembling long COVID beginning shortly after vaccination. This condition, sometimes referred to as post-vaccination syndrome (PVS) or post-acute COVID-19 vaccination syndrome (PACVS), is characterized by symptoms such as exercise intolerance, excessive fatigue, numbness, brain fog, neuropathy, insomnia, palpitations, myalgia, tinnitus, headache, burning sensations & dizziness.
Finally, we have scientific confirmation that vaccination against COVID-19 causes a marked decrease in immunity to heterologous pathogens such as viruses, bacteria & fungi.’ A condition known as ‘VAIDS’ vaccine-induced AIDS.” COVID mRNA vaccines cause long-term symptoms by multiple mechanisms:
#1 Vaccine 80 components, the mRNA lipid nanoparticles & adenoviral vectors, trigger activation of pattern recognition receptors. Thus, unregulated stimulation of innate immunity leads to chronic inflammation.
#2 The S2 spike protein expressed following BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273 vaccination circulates in the plasma as early as one day after vaccination. Interaction with full-length S2 spike, its subunits (S1, S2), and/or peptide fragments with host molecules result in prolonged symptoms.
Recently, a subset of non-classical monocytes has been shown to harbor S2 spike protein in patients with PVS18.
Further, biodistribution studies on mRNA–LNP platforms in animal models indicate its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, and the local S2 expression results in neurocognitive symptoms.
#3 Vaccine-induced VAIDS immune responses are triggering the stimulation of autoreactive lymphocytes.
Mechanism Of Harm From The mRNA Injections
Mic Drop by Dr. Jordan Vaughn, who lays out the mechanism of harm from the mRNA injections so concisely and precisely.
Then he takes aim at the establishments that ignore the vaccine-injured.
The vaccine-injured have been “dismissed or ignored by the systems that mandated their compliance” that led to their disability.
“The spike protein’s ability to induce fibrin, resistant to breakdown, activates platelets irreversibly and damages vessels that run to every part of our body, explaining his symptoms and those of thousands. I have treated ~4,000 patients suffering from long COVID and vaccine injury. Many were young and healthy, coerced under 2021 mandates despite hesitations due to prior infection or health risk. Now disabled, they are dismissed by systems that mandated their compliance.”

Food Borne Toxins And A Brain Boosting Supplement
I just read an ad for a brain boosting supplement, a pretty good one at that. Of course it comes nowhere close to mine: https://www.healthelicious.com.au/Nutri-Blast-Memory-Blend.html
A worthy part of the ad was about food borne toxins:
1
Brain Menace number one is called MSG or monosodium glutamate.
This is a very questionable contaminant that can impact the health of your body…
It causes headaches, high blood pressure, and it can destroy brain cells.
What’s even worse is now food manufacturers are trying to hide this ingredient on the label with clever and innocent-sounding names like hydrolyzed protein, natural flavoring, autolyzed yeast extract… and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
2
That brings me to Brain Menace number two.
This brain invader masquerades as a “healthy” food because it’s low-glycemic. Yet it may be the most potent Brain Invader of them all.
It’s called Aspartame and it’s sold under the label NutraSweet or Equal.
It’s a 100% synthetic substance not found in nature that has absolutely no nutritional value.
Plus, aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA.
Many of these reactions are very serious, including seizures and, sadly, far worse conditions.(3)
Aspartame and MSG are both “excitotoxins” because they “excite” or stimulate the brain cell to its demise.
3
That brings me to the third Brain Menace, Sucralose.
Sold under the label Splenda.
It’s very important you realize that Splenda, also called sucralose, is NOT sugar, despite its marketing slogan “Made from sugar, so it tastes like sugar.” It’s actually a chlorinated artificial sweetener in line with aspartame.
What’s happening is, they take an ordinary sugar molecule and then add 3 chloride ions.
Any time chlorine is combined with carbon, it becomes an unwanted contaminant…
This is how pesticides and herbicides are created.
4
Then we have the fourth Brain Menace, Diacetyl.
Is there anything better than snuggling up on the couch to watch a movie with some warm, buttery popcorn.
There’s something about the smell and the mixture of the salty goodness with the buttery flavor that I just can’t get enough of.
Here’s the kicker: That same buttery flavor in home popcorn is actually Diacetyl.
A brain toxin that can cross the blood-brain barrier, a defense mechanism that prevents harmful substances from entering your brain.
And diacetyl is bad news for your memory, because when ingested, it often passes through the blood-brain barrier and can form plaques on the brain.
This is often the cause of devastating memory decline… again it’s NOT always age, as you may think.
You won’t see the word diacetyl on labels, but if you see “artificial butter flavor” or “natural flavors”… you should avoid it at all costs.
5
And finally there’s the fifth Brain Menace, Aluminum. I actually wrote my Master’s thesis on the role of heavy metals on memory decline.
Aluminum is a known neurotoxin. In the 1970’s, autopsies revealed that people that had a larger than normal concentration of aluminum in the brain were more likely to have serious brain issues.
Unfortunately, aluminum is everywhere. It’s in drinking water, supplements, antacids, anti-perspirants, cans, foil, and is commonly used in cookware.
Your best bet is to look for aluminum-free deodorants, baking powder and antacids.
And always ensure the supplements we take have been 3rd party tested for heavy metals.

Joe Rogan Reveals 470,000 USA Deaths From Covid Shot
Joe Rogan just revealed a new study estimating the COVID-19 mRNA shots have killed more Americans than WWI, WWII, and Vietnam combined.
He dropped the numbers during his conversation with Aaron Rodgers:
Rogan: “I just sent Jamie this study. VAERS adjusted data, and other derived from the MIT, Florida Department of Health study findings that yield a conservative range of 470,000 to 600,000 American deaths from the Covid-19 mRNA shots.”
Rodgers: “That’s it?”
Rogan: “Well, just that alone. That’s a lot of people, man.”
Then came the jaw-dropper: “More than World War I, World War II and Vietnam combined.”
And it gets worse: “This is Pfizer alone, so this is not even Moderna.”
“Pfizer alone likely killed over 470,000 Americans.”
“They found a 36% increase in all cause mortality among Pfizer recipients versus Moderna.”
Rodgers closed it out with pure sarcasm: “Yeah, but they saved MILLIONS!”
https://x.com/VigilantFox/status/1925586840389595188
(Tom: And that is just the US deaths, not even world wide figures, which I have seen others estimate at 17 million.
And that is just the relatively instant deaths. It does not include all those yet to come from the longer-term effects of the Spike Protein, DNA damage etc. Which is why I continue to research solutions, as you can read in yesterday’s posts.)
Before You Get OLD, Watch This!
From Dr. Gabrielle Lyon on The School of Greatness
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon tells why muscle matters so much as we age.
A great video with a ton of valuable content. Some takeaways:
“…the wider the waist line in mid-life the lower the brain volume…”
“…they didn’t have the physical or mental capacity to follow through…”
“…it is more important to build muscle than it it is to burn fat…”
“…the skeletal muscle is really the organ of longevity…”
“…it regulates everything about our metabolism. It is the primary utilizer of glucose…”
“…skeletal muscle is the amino acid reservoir…”
“…the more skeletal muscle mass the individual has, the higher their survivability…”
“…you have to prepare your body to withstand the storms of life…”
“You can’t out-exercise a bad diet but you can’t out-diet no exercise.”
“Resistance exercise has a much bigger impact than nutrition.”
Our Food Should Be Our Medicine
Can You Repair DNA Contamination From Covid Shots?
Pursuant to my questioning grok on myocarditis I further asked: “Given that DNA contamination in Covid vaccines DOES get into human cells per https://news.rebekahbarnett.com.au/p/dna-contamination-in-covid-vaccines what nutrients help the body repair damages DNA?”
Its response was:
DNA contamination in COVID vaccines, as discussed in the provided source, raises concerns about foreign DNA integrating into human cells, potentially causing DNA damage or genomic instability. While the source mentions risks like insertional mutagenesis and potential carcinogenic effects, there is no definitive evidence in the provided material confirming that such contamination directly causes widespread DNA damage in humans. However, supporting the body’s natural DNA repair mechanisms through nutrition is a well-studied approach to mitigate DNA damage from various sources, including oxidative stress, environmental toxins, or potential foreign DNA integration.
Below is a summary of nutrients and dietary compounds that have been shown to support DNA repair and protect against DNA damage, based on scientific literature. These may help enhance cellular repair mechanisms, though they are not specific to vaccine-related DNA contamination. Always consult a healthcare professional before making significant dietary or supplement changes.
Nutrients and Compounds That Support DNA Repair
1. Selenium:
– Role: Selenium, particularly in the form of selenomethionine, enhances DNA repair by supporting nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathways and reducing oxidative damage. It activates pathways like p53-dependent DNA repair and influences epigenetic modulation to promote gene expression for repair enzymes.
– Sources: Brazil nuts (one nut provides the daily recommended value), seafood (salmon, shrimp, tuna), poultry, and whole grains like brown rice.
– Evidence: Studies show selenomethionine protects against UV-induced DNA damage in human fibroblasts and prostate cancer cells, and enhances repair of oxidative damage in lymphocytes. Supplementation may reduce DNA lesions and support genome stability. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7692274/X https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7692274/X https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article-abstract/95/2/98/2912337?redirectedFrom=fulltext
2. Zinc:
– Role: Zinc is critical for DNA replication, repair, and protection against oxidative damage. It supports enzymes involved in base excision repair (BER) and maintains genomic stability. Zinc deficiency is linked to increased DNA strand breaks and cancer risk.
– Sources: Animal foods (beef, organ meats, mussels, shrimp, eggs), lentils, beans, seeds, and nuts.
– Evidence: Zinc protects DNA in human lung cells and supports methylation processes, which regulate gene expression and repair. A high-zinc diet in animal models reduced autoimmune disease severity by enhancing DNA repair. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/B9780128045725000045) https://paleoleap.com/animal-foods-dna/X
3. Folate (Vitamin B9):
– Role: Folate is essential for nucleotide synthesis, DNA replication, and methylation, which controls gene expression. Deficiency increases DNA replication stress and genomic instability, leading to damage like strand breaks or uracil misincorporation.
– Sources: Leafy greens (spinach, kale), lentils, beans, beef liver, mussels, and fortified cereals.
– Evidence: Low folate intake is associated with reduced DNA repair capacity in human lymphocytes, while supplementation improves repair and reduces damage. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/proceedings-of-the-nutrition-society/article/dietary-and-genetic-modulation-of-dna-repair-in-healthy-human-adults/461375E0421B3970015EE2AFB8C2D2FE
4. Vitamin B12:
– Role: Works synergistically with folate in DNA synthesis and methylation, supporting genome stability and repair processes like BER.
– Sources: Animal foods (liver, shellfish, fish, eggs, dairy), nutritional yeast, and fortified plant-based milks.
– Evidence: Deficiency in B12 exacerbates DNA damage and impairs repair, increasing cancer risk. Supplementation supports cellular health and repair efficiency. ?10? https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2161831323013546
5. Vitamin C:
– Role: A potent antioxidant that reduces oxidative stress, a major cause of DNA damage. It protects DNA by neutralizing free radicals and supports repair processes indirectly.
– Sources: Citrus fruits (oranges, lemons), strawberries, broccoli, bell peppers, and leafy greens.
– Evidence: Higher plasma ascorbate levels correlate with lower 8-oxodG (a marker of oxidative DNA damage) in human leukocytes. Vitamin C supplementation reduces DNA damage from oxidative stress. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7692274/X https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33139613/X
6. Vitamin E:
– Role: An antioxidant that protects cell membranes and DNA from oxidative damage, reducing the formation of DNA lesions.
– Sources: Nuts (especially Brazil nuts), seeds, leafy greens, and fatty fish like salmon.
– Evidence: Vitamin E supplementation minimizes inflammation and DNA lesions, supporting genome stability, particularly in aging populations. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7692274/X https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33139613/X
7. Carotenoids (e.g., Beta-Carotene, Lycopene, Lutein, Astaxanthin):
– Role: These antioxidants reduce oxidative stress and enhance DNA repair by protecting against damage and supporting repair pathways like BER.
– Sources: Carrots (beta-carotene), tomatoes (lycopene), leafy greens (lutein), and algae or salmon (astaxanthin).
– Evidence: Carotenoids reduce DNA damage and enhance repair in human lymphocytes, with lycopene showing consistent protective effects against oxidative stress. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/food-health-news/7-supplements-to-save-your-dna/X https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2161831323013546)
8. Polyphenols (e.g., EGCG, Resveratrol, Proanthocyanidins):
– Role: Found in plant-based foods, polyphenols like EGCG (in green tea) and resveratrol (in grapes, berries, red wine) modulate DNA repair pathways, reduce oxidative damage, and enhance repair efficiency (e.g., NER, BER).
– Sources: Green tea (EGCG), grapes, berries, red wine (resveratrol), and grapeseed extract (proanthocyanidins).
– Evidence: EGCG reduces DNA damage in leukocytes exposed to genotoxins, and resveratrol enhances repair of double-strand breaks in non-cancerous cells. https://www.eatthis.com/foods-reverse-dna-damage/X https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7710985/X
9. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10):
– Role: An antioxidant that protects against DNA damage and enhances repair in lymphocytes, particularly in those with cardiovascular disease risk.
– Sources: Organ meats, beef, chicken, fatty fish (salmon, sardines), and supplements.
– Evidence: CoQ10 supplementation improves recovery from DNA damage and reduces strand breaks, supporting immune function and cardiovascular health. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/food-health-news/7-supplements-to-save-your-dna/X
10. Alpha-Lipoic Acid:
– Role: A powerful antioxidant that reduces DNA damage from toxins like hexavalent chromium and alcohol metabolites, supporting repair processes.
– Sources: Red meat, organ meats, spinach, broccoli, and supplements (R-lipoic acid form is most active).
– Evidence: Supplementation reduces DNA damage and supports cellular health, particularly in cases of chemical exposure. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/food-health-news/7-supplements-to-save-your-dna/X
11. Phytochemicals (e.g., Indole-3-Carbinol, Genistein):
– Role: Found in cruciferous vegetables and soy, these compounds boost DNA repair by increasing levels of repair proteins like BRCA1 and BRCA2.
– Sources: Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage (indole-3-carbinol), and soy products (genistein).
– Evidence: Indole-3-carbinol and genistein increase BRCA protein production in breast and prostate cancer cells, potentially preventing cancer development. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/02/060209185153.htm)
12. Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
– Role: Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, indirectly supporting DNA repair by minimizing damage in vascular cells.
– Sources: Fatty fish (salmon, sardines), walnuts, flaxseeds, and fish oil supplements.
– Evidence: Omega-3s reduce DNA damage in vascular cells and support overall cellular health. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/general-health/11-genius-science-backed-ways-to-save-your-dna/X
Specific Foods That Boost DNA Repair
Certain foods are particularly effective at providing these nutrients and supporting DNA repair:
– Fruits: Berries (blueberries, strawberries), lemons, persimmons, apples, oranges, mangoes, and watermelon. These are rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and phytochemicals that reduce DNA damage by up to a third in some studies. https://nutritionfacts.org/blog/how-to-boost-dna-repair-with-produce/X https://nutritionfacts.org/video/fruits-vegetables-boost-dna-repair/X
– Vegetables: Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts), spinach, tomatoes, watercress, and leafy greens. These provide sulforaphane, carotenoids, and folate, which reduce oxidative damage and enhance repair. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/general-health/11-genius-science-backed-ways-to-save-your-dna/X https://wildwoodhealth.com/cancer-prevention-strategies-dna-repair/X
– Superfoods: Chlorella (a micro-algae) supports detoxification and provides nutrients that aid DNA repair. https://thehealthsciencesacademy.org/health-tips/superfoods/X
– Beverages: Green tea (rich in EGCG) and polyphenol-rich fruit juices (e.g., apple, mango, orange with berries) reduce DNA damage, even in high-risk groups like smokers. https://www.eatthis.com/foods-reverse-dna-damage/X
Lifestyle Factors to Complement Nutrition
– Exercise: Regular moderate exercise (e.g., 20-minute workouts) increases antioxidant capacity and DNA repair, reducing strand breaks. Strenuous exercise, however, may cause oxidative damage. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/general-health/11-genius-science-backed-ways-to-save-your-dna/X https://wildwoodhealth.com/cancer-prevention-strategies-dna-repair/X
– Sleep: Adequate sleep supports DNA repair in the brain, as sleep deficiency disrupts over 700 genes involved in repair. https://wildwoodhealth.com/cancer-prevention-strategies-dna-repair/X
– Avoid Toxins: Minimize exposure to DNA-damaging agents like UV radiation, tobacco smoke, and processed foods to reduce repair burden. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/general-health/11-genius-science-backed-ways-to-save-your-dna/X https://wildwoodhealth.com/cancer-prevention-strategies-dna-repair/X
Notes on Application
– Dietary Balance: A diverse, whole-food diet rich in these nutrients is ideal. Over-supplementation (e.g., high doses of beta-carotene) may have mixed effects, so focus on food sources where possible. https://www.cleaneatingmag.com/clean-diet/food-health-news/7-supplements-to-save-your-dna/X
– Individual Variation: DNA repair capacity varies due to genetics and lifestyle. Nutrients like folate and selenium may have greater effects in those with deficiencies or high oxidative stress. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/proceedings-of-the-nutrition-society/article/dietary-and-genetic-modulation-of-dna-repair-in-healthy-human-adults/461375E0421B3970015EE2AFB8C2D2FE
– No Specific Vaccine Context: There’s no direct evidence linking these nutrients to repairing DNA damage specifically from vaccine-related DNA contamination. Their benefits are general to oxidative stress and DNA repair.
Conclusion
To support DNA repair, focus on a diet rich in selenium (Brazil nuts, seafood), zinc (animal foods, lentils), folate (leafy greens, liver), vitamin B12 (animal foods), vitamins C and E (citrus, nuts), carotenoids (carrots, tomatoes), and polyphenols (green tea, berries). Incorporate superfoods like chlorella and cruciferous vegetables, and complement with moderate exercise and adequate sleep. For concerns about vaccine-related DNA contamination, consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice, as this area remains under investigation.
