Methylene blue is gaining attention in functional and integrative medicine for its potential effects on mitochondria, brain health, metabolism, and even hormone balance. But what exactly is methylene blue, and how is it being used today?
In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr to explore the science, history, and modern clinical applications of methylene blue. We discuss how this unique compound has been used in medicine for over a century and why it is now being studied for neurological health, mitochondrial function, metabolic conditions, and more.
We also explore how methylene blue may support women during perimenopause, including symptoms like brain fog, inflammation, sleep disturbances, and cognitive fatigue. In addition, we discuss its potential effects on thyroid function, mitochondrial energy production, and chronic infections such as Epstein–Barr virus.
If you’ve been hearing about methylene blue in the biohacking or functional medicine world, this episode provides a balanced overview of the potential benefits, mechanisms, and safety considerations.

In this episode we discuss:
• What methylene blue is and how it works
• The history of methylene blue in medicine
• Mitochondrial and neurological benefits
• Brain fog, inflammation, and insomnia during perimenopause
• Metabolic syndrome and cellular energy
• Antimicrobial effects including malaria, viruses, and Epstein–Barr virus

Perimenopause has become one of the loudest and most confusing conversations in women’s health. Between fear-based messaging, outdated research, and oversimplified advice, many women are left unsure who to trust or what’s actually true. In this episode, I’m joined by Anne-Marie McQueen, health journalist and founder of Hotflash Inc., to unpack the narratives, myths, and truths around perimenopause and hormone therapy - and why nuance matters more than ever.

We explore how women’s health messaging has evolved, the lasting impact of the Women’s Health Initiative, and why estrogen is once again being discussed/pushed - including what the removal of the black box warning really means (and what it doesn’t).
We also discuss:
Some of the most damaging narratives still circulating in women’s health
Why these big name Drs are only focusing on estrogen
Why the conversation around progesterone remains overlooked or one might say "suppressed"
Anne-Marie’s personal perspective on hormone therapy
Why hormones alone are not a complete solution
Common perimenopause symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats, and the often missed mental health side of things
How important lifestyle and nutrition are, and how they can really help
The biggest challenges women in midlife face today
Emotional changes in perimenopause and learning how to feel, process, and trust your emotions
And so much more.

This conversation is REAL, thoughtful, honest, and deeply validating - especially for women who feel caught between “just take hormones” and “you don’t need hormones at all.”
So if you’re navigating perimenopause, questioning the narratives you’re hearing, or looking for a more balanced, evidence-informed conversation about hormone therapy, this episode is for you.
