A disorder or autoimmune disease in which your immune system attacks and destroys the melanocytes in the skin. The melanocyte cells gets dead which causes absence of pigments over the skin. It is termed as leucoderma. As yoga detoxifies the body & mind it is helpful to cope up with the condition of autoimmunity.
