Skin Tags may be linked to sugar intake & increased insulin levels. Why? When you eat foods high in carbohydrates like pastries, white rice and white potatoes, your body creates insulin to remove the sugar from the food.
"Skin tags are small, soft, finger-like lesions most commonly found on the neck and under the arms. They are skin-colored and benign." Shelley Burns, Skin Deep, May/June 2010.
People with 30+ skin tags indicates increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Solution? Focus on low-glycemic foods: apples, berries, brown rice, pears, vegetables & multigrain and multi-seed breads.
