Within the EU I don’t think there is currently much practical restriction of supplements although there is a trend towards restriction. You might not be able to buy everything in a store, but I haven’t heard stories of people being fined or going to jail for making personal imports. I think the regime for personal importation of prescription drugs is also more liberal within the EU than current implementation of FDA policy. (And of course the emerging world in Asia, FSU and Africa doesn’t tend to have very strict rules at all).
(So you have one less reason not to move to the UK, haha)
But nowhere seems to have as sophisticated and reasonably priced a market as the US. (I import pretty much every supplement I need).
What is better? Armani Code or Sexual by Michel Germain?
I find Armani Code to be cooler and a little less sweet. Sexual smelled like candy flowers. it seems very feminine. I hope they didnt spray the female one on me because its giving me a headache… ugh
Armani Code smells terrible to me, I wouldn’t even compare it to Germain’s. But I have a very sensitive nose, anything that smells wrong, cheap, salty, the list goes on… has got to go. There is a un-gendered, female, and male one for Sexual. Could have been the wrong one…
Well i have armani code and i have sexual. Now the thing is, i get compliments wearing code. I dont get compliments wearing Sexual. This one girl buries her nose into my neck every day to see what scent i was wearing. Nothing for Sexual. Nothing. She usually says I smell good too with my stock of:
Aqua di Gio
David Beckham
Sexual
Armani Code Neroli scented Pheros
and Pherlure
also, have any of you tried indium?
(Indium is the 7th rarest trace mineral. Indium increases gland mineral absorption for anti-aging recovery. Increases mineral abpsorption by 697%)
Hey Thomas,
Curious about this Indium stuff.. Can you tell me more about it? Like, which company do you order it from, how much you take, and how long you took it before noticing any difference? Much appreciated! I hope you get you wonderful cologne soon! Also, any advice you have for a lady to lose 10 lbs?
HM
PS I totally agree with you about all that FDA stuff. Take it, you read that Kevin Trudeau stuff, eh? It’s amazing that you are so young, and so knowledgable already. I wish I was this smart when I was 18! We need more people like you around..
I’ve studied nutrition a long time, please don’t do the atkins diet. My mother has been a doctor of 40 years and has seen terrible health effects from the atkins “diet”. I normally give info by mouth and by showing so I don’t know what diet out there you’d actually want but atkins is downright terrible.
I prefer what is called Volumetrics eating plan. “Low calorie density” food like soups (but watch the sodium), fresh veggies, fruits, etc. Think “wet” foods vs “dry” (like bread). Most everything in moderation.
(I’m forgetting my conversions but isn’t 5 stone close to 90 to 100 US pounds? Notable accomplishment.)
Yeah, Sexual from Germain is very very very good. I’ve heard it call sex in a bottle, along with a dozen other fragrances. Other good ones that seem to get compliments from women are Aqua Di Gio (that’s why so many men wear it), Angel Men by Thierry Mugler, Le Male by Jean Paul Gauthier, Rochas Male, Issey Miyake, Haeni Mori & Egoiste Platinum. They are all in my collection, for obvious reasons, to get closer to women. Angel Men, Rochas Male & Haeni Mori all seem to be very choclatey and warm (good winter colognes), and as we all know, women love chocolate. Aqua Di Gio, Le Male, Issey Miyake, Egoiste Platinum and Sexual all are pretty sweet and make good summer colognes. I also have Desire by Dunhill, which I like a lot, and have received compliments. That’s just my opinion.
Thomas, too bad you don’t live in New York City, I got Germain’s Sexual for $32 American. Prett good deal.
Indium is one of the last supplements you should try because there are tens of thousands of nutritional compounds you should take long before it.
To lose 10 pounds, i would go with carnitine, it’s an amino acide that transports fat to your cells to be burnt for energy. Carnitin is contained in meats, mainly beef.
I’m blood type O, so my body loves beef. Beef always makes me become super viril and in shape.
You should browse through this list: NOW Foods - DIET/WEIGHT LOSS
now foods is one of my favorite companies, the prices are great, quality is VER VERY good, eco friendly and all…
I personally eat a diet very high in good fats and plants accompanied by tons of protein. No grains, only kamut or splet. Massive quantities of supplements and plant powders. I eat about 8000 calories everyday, IMO, calories have little to do with weight gain unless your body is deficient in many compunds so it will be unable to maintain a healthy weight and will store the energy into fat.
A vast majority of those diet pills don’t do a thing. I’ve experimented with some. Done nothing for me. A healthy regular diet, activity/excersise, and some good basic suppliments/vitamins usually do better.
Carnitine didn’t do anything for me last time I tried it, but will be revisiting it again. I’m already a beef fan (and Type O). It may be that I need to modify my overall diet some more for the stuff to really work. I have lost a bunch of weight over the past couple of years but I can’t attribute it to any specific suppliment. Mostly due to overall dietary changes, activity changes, and removal of a bad gallbladder IMO.
