Do be sure to request fasting insulin, though -- that is not a standard test that is typically run, so if you want to have it, you have to specify that you want it.

Might be best to see a doctor if you're concerned, just to rule out anything problematic. (Has anything at all changed in your diet lately? Anything about your physical environment?)

The old typical skin tags disappeared - but recently multiple (10+) smaller new ones appeared in new spots.

Good to have time to ponder and reflect on this topic. It certainly has applied to my own situation, as I've had skin tags and always wondered how to get rid of them. Following low carb/keto for a year now, and seeing much clearer skin, and shrinking skin tags, which makes me happy. I am 71, and wish I'd known about the insulin situation 20 years ago, but better late than never :) ... <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04297081489242479007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833628955058077617.post-56116111419305736172019-10-07T18:38:29.265-04:002019-10-07T18:38:29.265-04:00This is some interesting stuff!

Personally it lends weight to my belief that my problem is insulin insufficiency - the only thing on your list that I suffered from is a small patch of psoriasis on one elbow and occasionally on the other one.<br /><br />All my skin problems resulted from high glucose - skin, eye, sinus, gum and fungal infections, and I caught every cold, flu and "food poisoning" bug going as the glucose killed my immune system. None of this happens during the last fifteen low carb/keto years. I wish I'd know earlier.<br /><br />There was a recent TV news item on endometriosis. The family interviewed were fat and looked like they had PCOS which makes me wonder if insulin could be implicated in endometriosis also, making tissue grow where it shouldn't?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833628955058077617.post-15210726328710672002019-09-30T12:03:35.016-04:002019-09-30T12:03:35.016-04:00Thanks Amy!

Yep, my Rosacea which was treated for many years with antibiotics and all kinds of topicals pretty much disappeared when I went Keto/low carb and has maintained for several years. <br />Now wondering if onset of lichen sclerosus in my 30's was associated with high insulin levels?
