A pheromone for jet lag

[jvkohl]

Human pheromones

accelerate re-entrainment following trans-meridian travel: a novel treatment for jet lag?

T. J.

JECHURA

Will be presented at next month's Society for Neuroscience

conference.

4,16-androstadien-3-one exposure resulted in accelerated reentrainment of body temperature

rhythms following eastward jet travel across 6 times zones.

Ok, JVkohl, in lay mans terms, what is this pheromone?

as in, where can I find it? which product?

If anyone has traveled from Sydney to London, they would know the

end result is horrbile, your biological clock gets really messed up. I would drink this stuff if it helped with jet

lag.

Los angeles to London was bad enough.

is it still actually 24 hours

flying time SYD- LDN ?

I knew it!
Had heavy A1 mix

on a transatlantic flight and seemed much better afterwards, totally concious and everything and Im really sensitive

to my sleep cycle.

bronzie,

You might find that you already have

some.

4,16-androstadien-3-one =

Androstadienone.

Thanks, Oscar.
Icehawk--you

missed out on a patent

opportunity.

thanks Oscar, I think I know

which product you are refering too

jvkohl, I sense a new pheromone line up incorporating A1? maybe you should

get into the airline industry with a spray that reduces jet lag, I can tell you, you will become a overnight

millionaire if the stuff is effective

I don't think that A1 holds all that much promise.

If you examine the research reports, people are using very large amounts of this compound, when it is naturally

found in only minimal (i.e., picogram amounts). So they get an effect on behavior/mood. It's not likely to be due

to the A1. Instead it's likely to be do to an odor association with A1 (e.g., the odor of androsterone). As I

recall, some of the studies of A1 used 200mg crystalline blocks of the compound. When in any natural situation would

you ever be exposed to this much A1? Who cares if it lights up the brain, if you can't wear the amount required to

elicit any effect? Common sense applies here. But you also may benefit from an understanding of current research

study design.
