Lipoma Natural Treatment - How To Get Rid Of Lipomas

Lipomas are lumps or clusters of fatty tissue deposits, that amass just below the surface of the skin. They are inclined to be soft and spongy, easily able to be moved when touched or pressed. Generally speaking, they are not dangerous, unless the fatty tissue collects in the region of a nerve, or if the build up causes some form of disfigurement.
The standard diagnostic process involves a doctor carrying out an initial investigation to verify that the lump is a lipoma, and not a more serious form of tumour. When it is proven beyond doubt that the lump is a lipoma, the removal of the fat cells can be considered. The lump can be removed by one of various options, including surgery, laser treatment, liposuction and steroid injections. Depending on the preferred choice, these procedures can be carried out at the medical centre, clinic, hospital or maybe even privately by a cosmetic surgeon.
However, surgery is not the only option. There are several natural, home remedies and herbal treatments that could be tried before embarking on the surgical route. The following are some options that could be considered following advice and careful discussions with your medical professionals.
Castor Oil - apply topically several times daily for best results.
Flaxseed Oil - this is high in omega-3, so by taking this oil, it may be possible to dissolve lipomas, or at the very least, stunt the development of fatty cells
Lemon Juice - this is renowned for reducing toxins and stimulating the liver, which may assist the body to digest fats and therefore help to reduce the number and size of the fatty lumps.
Herbal Treatments
Turmeric - it is commonly believed by many experts that by combining turmeric powder with olive oil and applying the blend to the fatty deposits, the lipomas can be softened and reduced.
Chickweed - both chickweed tea and ointment have demonstrated the capacity to reduce the size of lipoma tumours. Chickweed ointments and herbs are readily available from most health shops. The tea is made by infusing two teaspoonfuls of dried chickweed in boiling water for around fifteen minutes.
Thuja Occidentalis - Ayurvedic medicine practitioners regularly use this form of cedar in the treatment for common skin ailments, such as warts and lipomas. A mixture of cedar extract and water is applied to the affected areas two or three times per day.
Green Tea - real green tea is a great fat burner. Increasing body metabolism and burning off fat is an ideal way of avoiding adding to lipoma problems
Lifestyle Changes
As lipoma lumps consist of fat, one obvious factor in minimising growths is to reduce the intake of fat. Eating a healthy, well-balanced diet is advantageous anyway, but for lipoma sufferers in particular, it can be extremely helpful in reducing the size and number of these fatty growths. Eating leaner meats and cutting out fatty dairy products, as well as eating green vegetables and fruit is a good point to start. Cut out processed foods, white sugar and white flour as well, and the difference will be noticeable. Perhaps a body detox and immune system boosting supplements would not go amiss.
A good way of dealing with lipomas could therefore be a combination of the above tips. Lipoma reducing creams, fat burning herbs, a proper healthy diet and exercise may just be the answer.

Shock findings in new GMO study: Rats fed lifetime of GM corn grow horrifying tumors, 70% of females die early

(NaturalNews) Eating genetically modified corn (GM corn) and consuming trace levels of Monsanto's Roundup chemical fertilizer caused rats to develop horrifying tumors, widespread organ damage, and premature death. That's the conclusion of a shocking new study that looked at the long-term effects of consuming Monsanto's genetically modified corn.

The study has been deemed "the most thorough research ever published into the health effects of GM food crops and the herbicide Roundup on rats." News of the horrifying findings is spreading like wildfire across the internet, with even the mainstream media seemingly in shock over the photos of rats with multiple grotesque tumors... tumors so large the rats even had difficulty breathing in some cases. GMOs may be the new thalidomide.
"Monsanto Roundup weedkiller and GM maize implicated in 'shocking' new cancer study" wrote The Grocery, a popular UK publication. (http://www.thegrocer.co.uk/topics/technology-and-supply-chain/monsant...)

It reported, "Scientists found that rats exposed to even the smallest amounts, developed mammary tumors and severe liver and kidney damage as early as four months in males, and seven months for females."

The Daily Mail reported, "Fresh row over GM foods as French study claims rats fed the controversial crops suffered tumors." (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2205509/Fresh-fears-GM...)

It goes on to say: "The animals on the GM diet suffered mammary tumors, as well as severe liver and kidney damage. The researchers said 50 percent of males and 70 percent of females died prematurely, compared with only 30 percent and 20 percent in the control group."

The study, led by Gilles-Eric Seralini of the University of Caen, was the first ever study to examine the long-term (lifetime) effects of eating GMOs. You may find yourself thinking it is absolutely astonishing that no such studies were ever conducted before GM corn was approved for widespread use by the USDA and FDA, but such is the power of corporate lobbying and corporate greed.

The study was published in The Food & Chemical Toxicology Journal and was just presented at a news conference in London.

Findings from the study

Here are some of the shocking findings from the study:

• Up to 50% of males and 70% of females suffered premature death.

• Rats that drank trace amounts of Roundup (at levels legally allowed in the water supply) had a 200% to 300% increase in large tumors.

• Rats fed GM corn and traces of Roundup suffered severe organ damage including liver damage and kidney damage.

• The study fed these rats NK603, the Monsanto variety of GM corn that's grown across North America and widely fed to animals and humans. This is the same corn that's in your corn-based breakfast cereal, corn tortillas and corn snack chips.

The Daily Mail is reporting on some of the reaction to the findings:

France's Jose Bove, vice-chairman of the European Parliament's commission for agriculture and known as a fierce opponent of GM, called for an immediate suspension of all EU cultivation and import authorisations of GM crops. 'This study finally shows we are right and that it is urgent to quickly review all GMO evaluation processes,' he said in a statement. 'National and European food security agencies must carry out new studies financed by public funding to guarantee healthy food for European consumers.' (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2205509/Fresh-fears-GM...)

Read the study abstract

The study is entitled, "A Comparison of the Effects of Three GM Corn Varieties on Mammalian Health." Read the abstract here:
http://www.biolsci.org/v05p0706.htm

That abstract include this text. Note: "hepatorenal toxicity" means toxic to the liver.

Our analysis clearly reveals for the 3 GMOs new side effects linked with GM maize consumption, which were sex- and often dose-dependent. Effects were mostly associated with the kidney and liver, the dietary detoxifying organs, although different between the 3 GMOs. Other effects were also noticed in the heart, adrenal glands, spleen and haematopoietic system. We conclude that these data highlight signs of hepatorenal toxicity, possibly due to the new pesticides specific to each GM corn. In addition, unintended direct or indirect metabolic consequences of the genetic modification cannot be excluded.

Here are some quotes from the researchers:

"This research shows an extraordinary number of tumors developing earlier and more aggressively - particularly in female animals. I am shocked by the extreme negative health impacts." - Dr Michael Antoniou, molecular biologist, King's College London.

"We can expect that the consumption of GM maize and the herbicide Roundup, impacts seriously on human health." - Dr Antoniou.

"This is the first time that a long-term animal feeding trial has examined the impact of feeding GM corn or the herbicide Roundup, or a combination of both and the results are extremely serious. In the male rats, there was liver and kidney disorders, including tumors and even more worryingly, in the female rats, there were mammary tumors at a level which is extremely concerning; up to 80 percent of the female rats had mammary tumors by the end of the trial." - Patrick Holden, Director, Sustainable Food Trust.

Spread the word: GMOs are toxic!
