Ok

chaps listen up, I\'ve got an idea and I need your help.

First of all I\'ll share the info I\'ve

already got.

I came up with this idea after being madly in love with someone for about 4 years, particularly

obsessed for a month.
On one particular day I went into town for some clothes shopping. I was totally love

sick, kept going the wrong way, bought the wrong size jeans. I noticed that I was sweating in a different way to

usual. Next time this happens to you you\'ll understand what I mean; hot flush. Your body\'s kicking out

\'mones like crazy, you\'re sweating but instead of the usual urea-salt-water mix it feels different, more

liquid, less heat. You start sweating immediately even though you haven\'t moved for example. I originally thought

this sort of thing only really happens in the heat of a moment, not all day long.

Throughout that days

shopping I got 3 or 4 Deer-in-headlights-looks from all sorts of women. Unfortunately I didn\'t care as a result

of being somewhat love-ill. I probably got more attention but didn\'t notice.

Now. If only I could

recapture what happened that day when I\'m in my right mind.

\'mones are in sweat but that doesn\'t

necessarily going down the gym will cut it. Really what we need is to find someone we really like. The body will

only respond if it sees someone it really likes. I don\'t know about you but for some reason this hasn\'t

happened to me in years ...I could do with finding a different circle of friends. Possibily however, I\'ve grown

up and no longer happy with dumb blondes.

How can we get the body to start producing \'mones at a level

akin to the hot-flush?

There has been efforts to aid \'mone production. I\'ve seen supplements

available on trashy websites but I serious doubt they work. I haven\'t found any scientific backup for the idea

...yet.

But I have found something that could be very promising. The idea is simple:

- sweat like

crazy and stop the bacteria that causes the BO.

Here are some links to product to do this and I\'ll be

trying them out if something similar is available in UK-Boots:


mineral based (\"http://www.mypharmacist.co.uk/asps/extra10.asp\")


bbc article (\"http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/1998616.stm\")

I\'ll report back with any

results. Some work by blocking iron; needed by the bacteria. Ideally I\'ll try it in the summer with a shirt

drenched in the stuff and dried out. I\'m quite hopeful as there\'s nothing complicated about it, I\'m just

hoping they actually stop the bacteria rather than the sweat itself. (It\'s kind of a shame to waste

anti-bacterials on this if everyone used - the use of this kind of thing in soaps, floor cleaner and the like is

reducing thier usefulness and producing `super-bugs`)

In the mean-time what other approaches are

there?

Farmers use \'mones a heck of a lot. I originally thought that they just used spray-on \'mones to

(for example) encourage a bull to mate. But I think there may be more to it?
I have access to this scientific

database:
Web of science (\"http://wos.mimas.ac.uk/\")
so I can search for info for you if you

like. The trouble I\'m finding at the moment is that the majority of research is either directed at agriculture,

often flies and cattle, or kept behind closed doors.

We do a course we at my Uni called \"Perfumery\",

only one of its kind in the world. Have you guys got any questions for the guy that runs it? I met him on a

marketing course but he says he was originally a chemist who originally formulated smells for various perfume

companies etc.

- Do any of you guys know farmers who feed anything special to thier livestock to encourage

mating? Or sprays?
- Any thoughts on how to encourage the body to produce \'mones?
- any links to similar

bacteria stopping compounds? Or alternative methods? I know you can embed socks with anti BO, perhaps there are

other clothes available?
- If you can could you post any scientific quality research, or overviews of \'mone

production. I\'m having trouble searching
- got any questions for the Perfume expert I know? I\'m not sure I

can still get in contact but I\'ll try.
- know of any relevent journals to \'mones?
- why does Musk work?

Do other animal \'mones work and why? Why aren\'t women attracted to Deer??
- have we had a poll on most

effective mix? Would be interested to see a collective view rather than one guy saying \"it worked for

me\".

- any other suggestions

Be sure to post back on any info you find. Thanks for any pointers.

Good luck trying out the sweat option too.

Welcome to the forum.

I think you\'ll find the answers to most of your questions if you take

some time to research the info available around here. If you\'re having trouble w/ the search function, you\'ll

get the hang of it w/ a little practice. A couple of tips: Use the \"and\" and/or \"or\" option vs. the

\"entire phrase\" option...Also, adjust the \"time\" option, that is \"all posts\" or \"newer than 1 year\"

vs. \"within 1 week\". If you don\'t make these adjustments, then the search will automatically use the default

modes.

ok, I try searching for \"production\" in this forum.

Really I meant searching scientific journals.

If you

got links to the relevent threads I\'ll try to pull the info into a central location.

Jago:
I have used that rock crystal thing when I was a little kid.

It may work good, but from what I have

seen, having some bacteria is good for you.

Now there is a type of bacteria that does convert pheromones and one

that doesn\'t:

\"The metabolism of 16-androstenes was studied in vitro in the presence of two aerobic

coryneform bacteria, previously shown to metabolize testosterone as well as being capable of producing odour from

extracts of axillary sweat in an odour-generation test. Although both coryneforms caused complex metabolic

reactions and were capable of oxidation or reduction at C-3 and C-4, the overall direction favoured reduction. For

example, large quantities of the more odorous 5 alpha-androstenone and 3 alpha-androstenol were formed from

androstadienol and androstadienone. In contrast, strains of corynebacteria, unable to produce odour and incapable of

metabolizing testosterone, were also unable to metabolize 16-androstenes.\"

I think the bacteria that is unable

to metabolize testosterone cannot convert pheromones, but may be able to control the bacteria that will.

I\'d

like to try and find out how to get a high ratio of the stuff that does not convert pheromones than the stuff tha

does in my personal chemistry, rather than trying to eliminate it all.

jago-

You\'ll find links to research scattered throughout the forum and in the reference section.

James Kohl also has links to research on his web site. Other than the research articles, there is a ton of

experiential info to glean from the forum members posts.

There\'s two kinds of sweat - eccrine and apocrine. Eccrine is the watery sweat produced all over your body to

cool when you are overheated. Apocrine is concentrated in your armpits and groin, and produced from separate glands

than the eccrine. You can think of apocrine glands as scent glands, and they produce the pheros.

The apocrine

and eccrine glands are \'wired\' differently to the nervous system - he apocrine glands are ennervated by the

sympathetic nervous system. That\'s why working up a sweat in the gym won\'t necessarily produce much apocrine

sweat (or pheros) - eccrine sweat serves a cooling purpose (although it can help spread around the apocrine

sweat).

It\'s interesting that you noticed a different type of sweat when you were emotional over a woman.

It\'s quite possible your body was releasing apocrine secretions (sex lures)while you were fixated and longing for

your loved one.

Nice post, Irish. I do seem to recall there is phero release in both kinds of sweating, but that the

pheros are somewhat different. I could be wrong. Anyway, your point remains sound.

I\'m kinda in the belief that the body pheros that are emitted from me when sweating are attractive to women. It

also seems that the pheros I wear soon after a workout work better also. I seem to get more smiles and DIHL looks

on those days I\'ve worked out and worn.

that´s because body heat helps /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif try wearing them while you work

out, refresh with a nice scent/deo so you don´t stink of BO when you cool off! They blend in better with your

natural b chem too /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
