Hi, Im David T.

Ive been snooping around this site and have found a ton of very useful information. And I have some Starter questions, but they are for later i suppose. First a bit about myself.

I am a software designer, freelance, with an interest in biology and neurology. I Love reading about breakthroughs in science in every spectrum.  
On my free time i go out on the town or for loner weekends i will go hiking and outdoorsy stuff.

I am 21, 5’10 and pretty fit, I am from the bay area and am male.  
I would love to see [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) work and for those who claim that they do Awesome, I would like to see some results when i get to experimenting.

I am very friendly by the way so if anyone wants to chat about science or a philisophical question hit me up. )

The question I had might be a tough one for intro’s so I probably will post it elsewhere too, ( I know there have been threads on this but i want to see what people will say myself).  
It is, While these products smell good and do have chemicals that are definitely pheromones, unlike other products that claim to, How do you know they actually are being picked up by the VNO? I did some research myself and came upon this article, along with others, which has me questioning. [Human Pheromone Detection by the Vomeronasal Organ: Unnecessary for Mate Selection?](http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2695851/)  
give it a read and let me know what you think.

Hi David, welcome to the forum. Yup, some excellent info on this site from all types of users.  
For more of the background and scientific aspect of mones, checking out the discussion threads on Theory is a good one. Or, take a look at the messages from Michael, one of THE founder’s of Androtics Research. You can see that science in many cases is behind what we have been testing on mones for years.

I would suggest to go with some IO and IShine and you’ll see the nuances to see the mones at work! 🙂

Welcome David,

For someone interested in science I would recommend the Killer newbie kit to test all our instant lines out at a very affordable price.

What I recommend is that you read the stickies in the intro section and then the men section to get a feel in theory for our products and what we are all about before deciding.
