Baked Potatoes & Blue Mornings – How I Let My Body Lead
Today felt like one of those days where my body knew exactly what it needed — and for once, I actually listened. Here's how I moved through my morning, in case it inspires your own ritual.
Giving Methylene Blue the Space It Deserves
After taking my methylene blue dose this morning, I decided not to immediately pile on other supplements like I sometimes do. I’ve been learning (the hard way) that stacking too much too soon — especially mitochondrial stimulants — can overwhelm the system. Methylene blue deserves a window to work its magic without interference. So I gave it that space.
But Wait — What Is Methylene Blue?
Methylene blue isn’t your average supplement. Originally used as a medical dye and antimalarial, it’s now gaining attention as a mitochondrial enhancer — meaning it supports the tiny power plants in our cells that create energy (ATP).
When used in microdoses, it can:
- Improve mental clarity and focus
- Enhance cellular energy
- Support detox pathways
- Help improve mood and even memory
It’s powerful, and I treat it with respect. I only take it once a week, and when I do, I let it work without crowding it with too many other active ingredients.
Potato = Clean, Grounded Energy
Rather than reaching for caffeine or more supplements to boost my energy before heading out for early voting, I kept it simple: a baked potato with sour cream and bacon bits.
This meal may seem basic, but it’s brilliant — especially when paired with something like methylene blue. Why? Because while methylene blue is charging up the cells at the mitochondrial level, the potato gives the body real-world glucose fuel to ride that wave.
Here’s how this little dish carried me:
- The carbs gave me that fast ATP fuel.
- The sour cream added fat for slow-release energy and satiety.
- The bacon bits brought a dash of protein and salt to round it out.
It was warming, grounding, and gave me exactly the lift I needed without pulling energy away from what the methylene blue was already doing behind the scenes. It also just… tasted good. Soul-satisfying.
Why I Waited to Take My Multivitamin
I decided I’d take my multivitamin after my outing — and honestly, that felt right too. There’s something about movement, breath, and sunshine that preps the body for deeper nutrient absorption. Plus:
- Circulation improves after walking or running errands, helping nutrients get where they need to go.
- Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) absorb better when you’ve eaten.
- It also helps avoid that weird queasy feeling from taking a multi on an emptier stomach.
Sometimes, spacing things out isn’t just gentler — it’s smarter.
Final Thought: A Bio-Alchemy Flow That Works
So that’s what I did. I waited. I ate a simple, nourishing meal. I let my body do its thing. When I got home, I followed up with my multivitamin and more food. It wasn’t just a schedule — it was a flow. My body appreciated it, and my energy stayed balanced all day.
That’s the beauty of learning to listen and respond instead of react. This is what bio-alchemy looks like in practice — not perfection, but partnership.
