If someone has more than 8 skin tags, their risk of developing metabolic syndrome may be 11 times greater than someone without skin tags!

Skin tags are a metabolic problem, not a skin problem. They’re associated with high insulin and elevated insulin-like growth factor 1. Skin tags often appear on the neck, under the arms, and in skin folds due to a combination of insulin-like growth factor and friction in these areas.

For topical skin tag removal, apply a drop of iodine and cover the skin tag with a bandage twice a day.

To prevent skin tags from returning, it’s essential to address the underlying cause by lowering insulin. Reducing eating frequency and lowering your carbohydrate intake can help address one of the most common skin tag causes and keep them from coming back.
