    Default Complimentary to Pheromones

    visit-red-300x50PNG
    I

    understand that getting the right mix to work for someone regarding pheromones is tough enough, but I wanted to

    start a thread that would provide some tips that people have picked up along the way that work well with pheromones.

    I'm thinking in terms of grooming and etc.

    I'll start this thread off by indicating the obvious, which is

    brushing your teath and keeping your mouth fresh smelling. I tend to test things a lot and found that pepermint has

    provided significantly superior results. I'll use peppermint breath mints during the day and brush twice a day

    with regular flavor Crest.

    Secondly, I've found that as I get older, my hormone production is not up to

    snuff....LOL. So I've been taking Pregnenolone with very good results.

    Third, a bit of excercise is

    essential. I would not suggest working out until you are totally exhausted but to work out so you get a good sweat

    and positively effect your muscles and etc.

    Finally, I would suggest learniing to walk and sit with your back

    straight. Tends to make you more alert and look better to other people.

    Thats it for now. Pregnenolone is

    probably for people over 35 or 40 years old and definately not for those under 30....imho....

    Best

    I've read a lot of mixed

    information about Pregnenolone, could you tell me what dose you take, do you take breaks from it and have you seen

    any side effects? Other supplements that work well are DMAE and Insoitol, Tribex helps with the testosterone levels.

    SInce I don't have a thyroid I've been taking T4 most of my life but have added T3 to it recently and my energy

    levels have really jumped. Thyroid drugs ARE NOT good for most people as they can lead to all sorts of other

    complications, some severe. Another point is to cut down on alcohol and tobacco as they age you quickly.



    Grooming is a fun topic because everybody sees it diffrently. Personally, I've never had an expensive haircut and

    trim my beard myself. Both are kept short mainly because I'm too lazy to mess with them much. My dress and attitude

    are both extremely casual The majority of the time jeans or khakis and a pull over shirt with tennis shoes. When I

    do wear a suit they are always english taylored ones. We Americans have little style compared to the English when it

    comes to formal wear.

    Attitude is the most important thing any of us can work on and it can't be an act! A good

    attitude towards otherds combined with self confidence and a good sense of humor is the best thing you can do for

    yourself. It takes years to grow it but when you have developed it people notice. Women are atracted to the guy who

    can be comfortable and relaxed in any situation, who has control of himself and who can take control when needed.

    That doesn't mean to be a dominating jerk, that means when the situation warrants it you can and do take action

    without waiting for others. Learn to be sure of yourself, develop good judgment then use it all the time. Everybody

    will respect you for it and women will love it.

    Knowledge is also a good thing to have. Expand your mind at

    every opportunity. Instead of sitting in front of the TV, try reading a book or studying something worthwhile. Keep

    up on current events and be able to discuss them.

    Exercise is important, that healthy glow it gives you is a

    fine attribute and the physical conditioning adds to your attractiveness. Some people can exercise just for the

    sakes of working out. I can't, it bores me senseless. I go to a dojo several times a week and work out there

    instead. It's more aerobic than muscle building but it adds a grace and surety to your movements that few other

    things can.

    To sum it all up, learn to have real depth in your persona. Develop every part of yourself as much

    as you can. The shallow dating ploys are fine if you are going to always be moving from one thing to the next but it

    wears thin real fast. If you want relationships, both romantic and platonic you will need a lot more than that.
    To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

    After doing a lot of research on

    Pregnenolone I decided to see if it will work for me. I'm 43 yrs. old and have slowed a bit. I won't go into the

    research stuff as its available to anyone who knows how to google and investigate. The benefits of preg is that I

    experienced a significant increase in energy and alertness. There were no side effects such as shaking or anything

    else that I've seen. I think it also has a positive effect on overall attractiveness and natural pheromone

    production as well... Its easier to maintain a positive attitude and inner calm even though I am more active. This

    is important to me as I own and run my own business and I need to keep motivated and working hard all the time...



    Bottom line is that there appears to be no downside so far and a lot of upside. A bottle of the stuff can be

    bought at the Vitamine shoppe for less than $10 bucks and you can test it for a couple months. I use 1 capsul per

    day in the morning at 30 mg. This amount may be too much, but I can't find a bottle with less active ingrediants

    in it. A word of advice is to only take the stuff in the morning...before 9am because if you take it in the

    afternoon you will likely have trouble falling asleep at night. Also, I will take a one-day break every week, there

    wasnt' a big let down doing that. By the way, I used DMAE several years ago without much noticable

    difference...

    I'm not sure if Preg is advisable for people with thyroid or other problems as its unknown how the

    body will use the stuff. Mainly, the body will break down the preg into various hormones. Researchers speculate

    that the body could concievably make too much of one hormone, which is the primary danger although there have not

    been any reports of this happening that I've read.

    Hope this helps!

    Best wishes

    Thanks, useful stuff. I had

    done a web search before asking you about it but found a lot of contradictory information.

    No thyroid problem,

    just no thyroid. According to the doctors, the absence of a thyroid doesn't qualify as a desease and I can ignore

    the related warnings.

    Almost everybody I've talked to about DMAE that was disatisfied took it in the pill form.

    There seems to be an absorbtion issue as well as trouble getting the dose right. DMAE is a caustic but can be

    combined with an acid to form a salt which is then disolved in a liquid. Absorbtion is almost 100% that way making

    it a lot easier to get the right dose.

    A small business owner too? I have a computer service company

    myself.Great fun, isn't it?

    I did computer service for

    years too, but got a little tired of pulling Monopoly houses and coins out of disk drives, trying to figure out what

    someone meant about "the black thing that plugs into the white thing," and why it was going to be difficult to

    attach a VGA monitor to their Commodore 64...

    Coulda used some -mones on myself back then... If I'd only

    known...

    Still got quite a pile of old hardware kicking around...

    I've only owned my

    company for about three years but it has grown into a great little business. Mones contributed a lot to that

    success, in my opinion. Spent a bit more than twenty years in the corporate computer world before that. I don't

    really do much with individuals but focus on small business users, no more than 15 computers on any one site.

    Post pregnenolone

    Hi.

    I'm 32

    and have been using pregnenolone for the past ten years. I got sick with some kind of intracellular bug and now my

    hypothalmus doesn't function so well and I also take thryoid hormones. (Belgareth - you might want to try time

    release T3, which is available from compounding pharmacies. The half life of the regular form is, I believe, only a

    couple of hours).

    There are certainly cognitive benefits (better alertness, calmness and recall) but, more

    relevantly for this forum, I have (just as you did) noticed a marked increase in success with women once I started

    taking pregnenolone (and my success rate goes down if I stop). I noticed a change in the smell of my sweat, and the

    correlation was what got me interested in pheromones in the first place.

    Pregnenolone is a direct precursor

    to androstadienol and androstadienone (and they are precursors to our beloved none and nol), so it's not altogether

    surprising that taking more preg should boost pheromonal output. It's also of note that (unlike many other

    hormones, eg testosterone) pregnenolone is not under the control of any feedback loop. So I suppose ingesting more

    will boost one's blood levels.

    I wonder how well pregnolone applied externally could be converted to

    pheromones by skin bacteria? It would be fun if it could, as it's cheap and easy to get hold of but I'm guessing

    not.

    I take 10-20mg daily (more than that is too much for me). I find a difference in effectiveness of

    pregnenolone from different suppliers (one in particular seems best for me) so, if it doesn't work for you

    initially, it may be worth experimenting.

    > wasnt' a big let down doing that. By the way, I used

    DMAE
    > several years ago without much noticable difference...

    Do you mean DHEA? (DHEA is one step down

    from pregnenolone ; DMAE is another 'smart drug' that stimulates awareness).

    If people are interested in

    learning more about pregnenolone, the book "Smart Drugs 2" by Dean and Morgenthaler is worth a read.

    Re

    maintaining hormone (and therefore pheromone) production as one gets older. There is a school of thought that the

    drop-off in testosterone production seen in men starting in their mid 30s ('andropause') is something that it is

    possible and desirable to treat. It's still a controversial topic but there are a few books written about it (eg

    Maximize your Vitality by Jonathan Wright) that could be worth a read. You can get levels tested by the Life

    Extension Foundation (lef.org)

    If no luck with DMAE

    itself, one might try a pharmaceutical version known as centrophenoxine or Lucidril that is metabolized by the body

    and turns into DMAE. It's available in some countries by prescription or alternatively without prescription on the

    net.

    I'm aware of the timed release

    of T3. Actually the normal T3 half life is 3-5 hours depending on a number of variables. By taking some at breakfast

    and some at lunch the hyper feeling from it has faded completely by late evening. The timed release is far more

    expensive and the slight added benefit isn't worth the cost. Most insurance companies won't cover the extra cost

    for it, which can be quite high.

    No, I meant DMAE when I was discussing it. The pill form is not well absorbed,

    which isn't all the uncomon. Converting it to a salt allows absorbtion along the salt channel which is very close

    to 100%. It gives you much better control of dosages. Going that route I get 140 mg per day reliably.

    Me too, I was talking about DMAE

    and not DHEA. I'm not a fan of DHEA. Belgareth, you got it right when you suspected that I was taking DMAE in

    pill form...that's what I did and it did not do anything for me. I don't know if I'll try it again, but if I do,

    I'll remember your advice... thank you!

    My small business involves commercial real estate appraisal. So far so

    good. The business is only six months old and I'm hope it gets a bit more busy, although I'm paying the bills.



    I'm glad to hear some feedback on preg and its possible effect on human pheromone production from the inside

    out... It seems to be doing something for me...

    I have to repeat the tooth brushing advice as I had tested

    that out extensively. I've tried a few different tooth pastes and also several different kinds of breath mints..

    Again, its traditional minty Crest that works best for me and peppermint lozenges...such as the ones sold at

    Starbucks. There is a significant difference if you use this stuff...

    Best wishes everyone!

    I have to disagree on the last

    argument that mones are for people over 30. I'm younger than that and I can really feel the difference. Sorry- too

    lazy to type my experiences and stuff. You just have to believe me when I say it works really well for me.
