Diabetes and pancreas damage
The momos are made up of chemical-laced dough. The vendors use refined flour, treated with harmful chemicals. Azodicarbonamide, Benzoyl Peroxide, Chlorine gas, and other bleaches. The chemicals used can cause diabetes. Moreover, these chemicals may also damage the pancreas.
The use of meat from diseased animals may cause many diseases
