Beans or beads? Either way, I have never heard of those. Don\'t think they will be useful anyway.

Never heard of em, anyone else sounds like they are just a gimmick, actually you can get dehydroandrosterone as a supplement (otherwise poplualry known as the supplement DHEA) - surprise surprise.

This might actually be a good idea. We\'ve noticed that natural skin chemistry and bacteria have an effect on the pheromones we apply to ourselves. Some experimenters have explicitly noted that the \'mones they use in their tests are not applied to the subjects\' skin but are in \"necklaces\" or somesuch.

Using a porous ceramic bead or medallon on a neck strap might serve as a delayed release substrate for pheromones, slowing or levelizing the rate of emissions while protecting the pheromones from skin and bacterial degradation. I\'ve been thinking about a bundle of capillary tubes that can be dipped in pheromone/alcohol solution. The rate of release would then be limited by the exposed surface area of the ends of the capillaries and should be fairly constant.

But, so far, haven\'t seen a commercial product like beads except for aromatherapy emitters.
