Are you valuable they mentioned leprosy? this is the strangest undertaking i've got heard in a protracted time. Leprosy is an infectious ailment led to by potential of the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae. How do they think of combining squash and chicken ought to create that micro organism? I shudder to think of what else they are telling you!

Close physical contact with untreated people causes the disease. No other details are available in the medical literature.
Please see the webpages for more details on Leprosy.

No. Leprosy is an infectious disease due to Hanson's bacillus, not a dietary problem. This must be some old wives' tale.
