The Chemistry of lust


Image by: Public

You might not admit that you know that feeling of lust which releases certain chemical compounds.

 
Lust is driven by flirting and physical attraction to a – perhaps - wonderful face or a beautiful body.
 
And the chemical compounds released are the two sex hormones – estrogen and testosterone - and pheromones which you find in human sweat.
 
In the animal world you find the pheromones in sweat and urine – attracting the opposite sex.
 
We all know the sniffing (male) dog.
 
 
Lystens kemi
 
Du vil måske ikke indrømme, at du kender den lystfølelse, som stammer fra visse kemiske forbindelser, der udskilles.
 
Lyst drives af flirting og fysisk tiltrækning til et – måske- nydeligt ansigt eller en smuk krop.
 
De aktive kemiske forbindelser, som udskilles, er de to  sexhormoner – østrogen og testoteron samt og de menneskelige feromoner, som findes i bl.a. sved.
 
I dyreriget finder man feromonerne i sved og urin – de tiltrækker det modsatte køn.
 
Vi kende alle den snusende (han-)hund.
