How can one distinguish those? Don't they all have considerable amounts of eugenol?if you can find, you shouldn't try chinese or Vietnamese clove. African versions are good.

I believe he is going to include eugenol in a new product he is creating involving duogenol (don’t quote me on that for accuracy). But it is something the Russians discovered to oppose estrogen and increase the androgens. It sounds interesting and it has a track record since they used it on athletes.Also wondering the same. Georgi mentioned something about this during DR podcast the other day.
You could just use clove oil. I bought 50ml of it.I have used in the past adding it to the carrot salad. Basically some cloves finely grinded in the electric grinder, spiked over the carrot. It made it more powerful for sure. But didn't use it for too long because of the inconvenience of having to grind it, the taste, etc... Will have to give it a new try.
Please keep us posted if you feel any effects from the oil. Much more convenient indeed.You could just use clove oil. I bought 50ml of it.
It's supposedly 90% eugenol. The only thing I'm not sure of is the dosage. But I recall somebody on the forum saying he used 1 drop .
Anybody else used clove oil ?

Thanks for doing the math :)Not yet, but seems to be good for testicles in low doses while higher doses are toxic. Effective and non-toxic HED in those studies is 50 - 100 mg of eugenol.
I weighed a single drop of clove essential oil and it was 51 mg. Considering that it has around 90% of eugenol I think it would be safe to take 1-2 drops daily, dissolved in MCT oil.

Interesting !My uncle bought an antique spice cabinet back in the 50s, one of the drawers stored cloves, but he used the drawers to store nuts and bolts, etc.. That cabinet still smelled strong in cloves up into the 90s. It amazed me how the volatile oils could hang around that long. That must say something to the antioxidant and longevity effects of compounds like eugenol.
Would you mind sharing the brand of clove oil you use? Thanks in advance.For the last two days I added clove oil to my tooth paste and I have to say my teeth do feel cleaner and better . It reminds me of something from the dentist . I haven't been in 2 years ,but I think its when he does some kind of cleaning and it leaves your teeth with a layer of protection. That's how it feels with the clove oil.
I wasn't sure if my usual tooth paste (coconut oil , thyme oil , baking soda ) was enough to really clean my teeth properly , but the clove oil definitely makes them feel cleaner .
I also added a bit MCT OIL to keep the whole thing more fluid / paste like .
I also tried 3 drops topically and I did feel a small metabolic push . So I guess it does absorb. Which is not surprising as most things absorb topically .
I applied it on my arm and leg and elbow pit, where I felt a burning sensation ,afterwords the skin got red . I applied it there on purpose because this is a sensitive spot, and you can easily see how you react to it .

Well, that explains the dentist-feeling then !Would you mind sharing the brand of clove oil you use? Thanks in advance.
I got it from German Amazon:Eugenol is used IN the filling material at the dentist and in many of the disinfectants they use before a filling is placed,
I agree with you. It is more inconvenient but it probably has many other modulating/beneficinal compounds besides eugenol.I would suggest swallowing cloves whole or crushing them a bit.
Eugenol has a very strong taste. Also I imagine the cloves/whole food would have an "all day" effect due to the slow absorption of the clove vs. taking the oil which might be absorbed rapidly.
Thanks! Does it say how much eugenol per drop? I can't see it on the amazon pics.Well, that explains the dentist-feeling then !

Very important information, thanks! Do we know how much average eugenol is on each clove bud? Not the oil.Not yet, but seems to be good for testicles in low doses while higher doses are toxic. Effective and non-toxic HED in those studies is 50 - 100 mg of eugenol.

True !I agree with you. It is more inconvenient but it probably has many other modulating/beneficinal compounds besides eugenol.
An example of this would be pure CBD vs CBD extract that contains other cannabinoids.
Unfortunately not ,but I I was surprised to find out that eugenol content apparently varies between 45-90% , so it might be important to know .Thanks! Does it say how much eugenol per drop? I can't see it on the amazon pics.
