But it was a result of the hormone human love this one just a myth.This hormone is certainly only work on animals, especially insects that are attracted to the opposite sex. Which pemikatnya compounds called pheromones that became the trigger.
The hormone pheromone is specific compounds produced by insects, to produce a distinctive odor that can attract couples when it comes time to mate. The existence of pheromones in insects and some plant species have been scientifically proven.
While in humans, a new pheromone is known around the 1950's. At that time many scientists believed that prior to having an interest at first sight, one would first thrilled by the scent of her partner's body.
But the allegation is disputed by Richard Doty, a researcher from Penn State University's School of Medicine. Over the years, he learned the secret behind pheromones and concluding that humans are not affected by the pheromone.
In his book "The Great pheromone Myth", he says the human sense of smell is not as simple as that possessed by insects. Interpretation smells occur in the brain, whereas human behavior in choosing a mate is more influenced by the environment and current conditions fell in love.
In fact, not only humans, nearly all species of mammal or mammalian pheromones do not need to get a pair. Doty did not believe if the interpretation of odors could affect behavioral changes in mammals.
"The concept of pheromones in humans may only appeal to the perfume industry and those who want to do anything to stay young," Doty said as quoted by the Dailymail, Monday (06/12/2010).
But Doty trying to understand if many people are so convinced the concept of pheromone. He considered human beings do have a tendency to believe something that is not concrete to explain things that are beyond reason, including how the process falls in love.
