EP491 - What Makes a Good Lube? Expert Alexander Giebel Shares The Best Components For Intimacy Essentials

Welcome to Episode 491 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I am excited to be joined by Alexander Giebel, who speaks to me about the history of lubricants, how to choose the right lube, and why quality is important for sexual health.In this episode, Alexander shares how his interest in sexual health started during the HIV crisis of the 1990s, when condoms became a cornerstone of safer sex education. Working on those, he became fascinated with the silicone lubricant used on condoms, and eventually helped bring silicone-based personal lubricant to the broader market.Alexander Giebel is the founder and CEO of pjur group, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of premium personal lubricants. As the inventor of the first silicone-based lubricant, he established a completely new category in sexual wellness when he founded pjur in 1995. Today, pjur products are available in over 70 countries across five continents, with the company remaining proudly founder-owned. In this episode, you will hear:The History Of LubricantsSilicone-Based LubricantsLubricants And The HIV CrisisMedical-Grade Product StandardsReading Lubricant LabelsWater-Based Vs Silicone LubesAvoiding Irritation And DiscomfortChoosing Lube For Anal PlayLubricant And Toy CompatibilityGenital Skincare And Marketing ClaimsFREE Foreplay Checklisthttps://exciting-builder-8729.kit.com/2690c062c9 Book An Appointment With Dr. Nazanin Moalihttps://oasis2care.clientsecure.me  Spice Up Your Social Media Feed AND Your Sex Life: Follow Us On InstagramPodcast Produced by Vaudeo ProductionsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
