housewives and live without worries. Nora was not a typical woman compared to her time, except the delight in material wealth. Torvald labeled Nora as a "spendthrift" and pampered her with money.

Fermentation can make foods more nutritious, give them a stronger flavor, and it breaks down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins…

Social Attitudes and Health Care Throughout history, there have been countless cases demonstrating the social injustice in health care. Cases such as, the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment validates how unethical and unscrupulous physicians can become, all in the name of science.
