Reasons for clay ingestion include curbing morning sickness, nausea, satisfying cravings, “mineral deficiency” and other life sustaining beliefs. 2School of Tropical Medicine, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Liverpool, United Kingdomįindings from this qualitative audit conducted in a North London Borough among Black African women show that clay ingestion during pregnancy is a cultural phenomenon embedded in indigenous knowledge (IK).1Department of Health, London Metropolitan University, London, United Kingdom.The Great season 2 episode 7: Stapler - Fact vs.Cathrine Madziva 1 * Martha Judith Chinouya 2 *.

It doesn’t sound particularly appetizing but another suggestion is it quells morning sickness symptoms. "Soil is nature's multi-mineral supply,” said nutrition expert Dr. While experts have not landed on a conclusive reason, theories include that the dirt (or clay) soaks up toxins, strengthens the immune system and provides minerals. The most common form of pica (the scientific term for craving and consumption of non-food products) is ice, but the practice of eating dirt and clay dates back to Ancient Greece and Native Americans (and is also called geophagy). While there is no recorded evidence of Catherine’s pregnancy cravings, her urge to eat dirt this season is far from unusual. Considering Peter is craving attention in The Great there are more links to the iconic 50s sitcom than a traditional Russian ritual. A baby shower is depicted during the revolutionary I Love Lucy pregnancy arc in “ Ricky Has Labor Pains” and the concept of a “Daddy Shower” is conceived. It wasn’t until the post-WWII commercialization that this event spiraled into gifts and games with the mother-to-be taking centerstage. Celebrating the impending arrival of a child does date back to Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece, and a baby shower has roots in tea parties hosted during Victorian times - though this only occurred after the baby was born. While this occasion does give costume designer Sharon Long the perfect reason to lean into Peter’s playful sartorial side, there is no evidence that this practice existed in Russia until recent years.

While the account of the ambassador getting killed appears to be fictitious, only five years ago did another act of violence threaten contemporary relations when the Russian ambassador to Turkey was assassinated at a gallery in the Turkish capital, Ankara. The circumstances are somewhat reversed in “The Devil’s Lunch,” but the fraught landscape reflects the manner in which peace and war are on a pendulum during this period. “Things were brought to a head by the incursion into Turkish territory of a group of Russian Cossacks in pursuit of some Polish rebels,” writes biographer Virginia Rounding about the brewing strife in Catherine the Great: Love, Sex and Power. Anti-Russian rebellions in Poland led to the Turkish forming an alliance against their former enemy - the French also had a hand in igniting this tense situation. While the Hulu version of the new Russian ruler has to deal with the Ottoman border issue during the early days of her reign, the real Catherine was faced with an international crisis in 1768 (six years after her ascension). Several of these were under Peter the Great, but by the time Catherine came to power, there had been relative peace between the two regions for more than 20 years. The first Russo-Turkish war began in 1568 and lasted for two years but in total there would be a total of 12 wars over the next five centuries. Their conflict with Russia was on and off all the way through to the Ottoman decline. The Ottoman period spans more than 600 years and only came to its conclusion in 1922.
