The trial, aptly named "Rations", is making global headlines as it unearthed bold evidence on how nutrition aids in both the prevention and treatment of TB. Imagine a family given a monthly food basket filled with rice, legumes, and micronutrient pills; in just two years, incidences of TB dropped by up to 48%. Ready for more mind-blowing facts?
