    Default An interesting thought

    visit-red-300x50PNG
    Last

    night I was thinking about pheromones and also genetic engineering. While it would be unethical to change the

    genetic makeup of someone to produce -mones, it is perhaps possible to supplement someones -mone signature.

    At

    the moment we have microbes that can make insulin and such. But what if we can introduce a gene that makes certain

    -mones into bacteria? What about one that produces mones like oxytocin and readily releases it in the air? If it is

    possible after manipulating a microbe to produce such a chemical and if you can introduce the microbe in a certain

    way such that it integrates into your natural flora (skin). Then it is possible to generate -mones in such a order

    that you will not need to buy more mones.

    Just a crazy thought.

    Anything is possible, but think

    about this, if you're producing it, you have no control over what and how much. With applicable mones, you can

    tailor your recipe for the situation at hand.
