Being all around healthy definitely helps big time. Lifting weights increases testosterone which I assume also helps increase pheromone productions. (I’ve been slacking in the lifting area lately)
(I think that this falls under category #1)
I think that I would only worry about very excessive numbers, because it somewhat resembles sex. I’m sure the first 1-3 times during the day, your body isn’t too sure that you’re doing it yourself. Plus, not having a regular release can lead to prostate cancer. . . seriously.
I don’t think that showering turns down your production, but it definitely washes away what you produced. And antiperspirant deodorant blocks it from being released efficiently.
Celery has been reported to aid in natural -none production.
I think that as long as you are having good sex, your body will appreciate it.
Stress and sleep patterns do have something to do with it. Maybe not so much the production, but definitely on your mood, which is very important anyways. (I don’t sleep well, ever =/ lol)
Eating celery - check! I can do that! had some last year… and some about 2 years before that…
other than that I drink excessively about once every 6 to 8 weeks, smoke about 60 grams of tobacco a week.
I can’t fall asleep most nights without a shag or a wank though… (my prostate must be having a blast) but then I sleep like a dream! (can only recommend it if you have trouble sleeping!)
Exercise? hmmm… I run to the train station allot so I don’t miss my train! does that count? Can do about 30 push-ups in a set…
Weights arn’t my thing, I’m more of an ectomorph - tall and skinny. Not a chance of gaining weight other than on my belly - loose too much and I look like DEATH! Last year I was jogging 14 Km a day in about an hour - slacking this year…
32 years old, but don’t feel a year over 20!
Stress… nah.. not my thing! i avoid it or work through it where possible!
Nope - no anti-persperants here, just good old Deoderant.
and some Ismiaki or CK
…had my little ladybug curled up under my arm all afternoon today! Must be doing something right.
Thanks man!
PS: wasn’t there something about pineapple juice? or does that just make your seamen taist sweet?
Sounds like you’re doing just about everything right; just a few recommendations. I’d space the drinking out more, instead of binge drinking. For example, I tend to have a few drinks about 3-4 nights a week, but barely ever drink excessively.
And I also enjoy the occasional cigar; but you might want to cut down on the smoke some. Other than that, have a celery stalk every once in a while and you’re good to go (run to the train) lol
Yep, you’re right on with that. It makes you taste sweeter, but I’ll let you in on a little secret. Cut out some smoke, and don’t drink excessively too often, and try not to consume over the daily salt value and you’re good dude.
All of the things you suggested help maintain a higher testosterone level.
Some of the most important though diet and fitness.
Being muscular helps maintain normal levels of testosterone. This is in part why when men age their testosterone levels decrease. Men begin losing muscle tone faster starting at around 30 to 40.
Eating foods high in zinc helps. Celery has natural testosterone in it but zinc helps maintains the levels better.
Oysters, whole grains and red meat are high in zinc.
Oh and I thought I would mention that wanking off wont effect your testosterone levels. It just effects the amount of testosterone in your semen and the amount of semen you produce. You still maintain normal levels in the body. So wank away if the desire hits you.
Hey I started my journal today after yesterday reading this subject, I searched and learned some about how to boost your natural phermones, since I add all the work to write it there you will forgive me but I encourage you to go read it there. Your free to negativily rep me (dont know how it works) if you dont like it and think is a waist of time. Just dont neg rep me now without reading it, its a damm long post (not all about phermones boosting) .
Let me suggest zinc magnesium asparate (ZMA) for increased testosterone production. That seems to increase natural pheromone production as a result.
I’m in late middle age so my T production declines naturally. Taking ZMA at bed time causes me to wake up with a woody 2 mornings out of three.
The recommended dosage is three capsules but I find two a night is fine. Also, I cycle it something like two weeks on one week off. The stuff is fairly cheap at health food stores in the US. The zinc helps in the conversions of general steroid into androgens at the enzyme level. The magnesium makes one drowsy but you take it before bed anyway.
Hell, I wake up with a woody* 3 mornings out of 2. (but I’m only 32)
-and I can’t fall asleep most nights without a release…
…but that brings me to my next question!
Does swallowing have an effect on HER natural pheromone production?
My thesis is YES because I feel an immediate sense of attraction.
*I remember reading somewhere that the sleeping erection is a natural protection against wetting yourself while in dream state…
