Hi Everyone, This is my first post here, I've been happily lurking and learning about the benefits of CS (which I'm also happily making and drinking like mad). I'd like to add to the skin tag thread that to my knowledge, and from my research going back some years, these are due to sugar eating, and/or a higher than normal sugar level in the blood. It is said that these are a warning that diabetes could be in one's future. I believe this statement could be verified by a simple web search. I first became aware of these 20 years ago when my then husband began sprouting these little tags. At the time I had no idea what they were from. I found out from my children that their father has indeed been dxed with Type II diabetes about 4 years ago. I would add that his dietary habits are notoriously atrocious and that he is a carb fanatic! Unfortunately I also have a life long love of sweets which has been very difficult to get under control, and I have had a few of these tags crop up. Knowing that the essential oil of cinnamon has been found to have glucose lowering effects in diabetics, I rubbed that on the tags for a few days and they have dried up and fallen off. I had one other instance with a large tag, years ago, that formed where I had been badly sunburned in the past. I didn't know of the glucose connection at that time, so I used some of Dr Christopher's Black Ointment on a bandage over it, and it, too, just shriveled up and fell off---leaving no trace that it had ever been there. Needless to say, I also keep an eye on my blood glucose---just in case. I thought I'd share this in case anyone else had the same squeamish reaction that I did, upon hearing that some of you adventurous people were cutting them off! ;-) Sharon/starshar -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
