Crete, considered to be one of the cradles of the Mediterranean diet, has been overtaken by unhealthy Western eating habits and now has alarmingly high obesity rates, particularly among children.

Yet it was on this island, and in the rest of the Mediterranean basin, that American doctor Ancel Keys discovered after the war the ideal diet to protect against the cardiovascular disease that was ravaging his country.

Fruit, vegetables, fish, wholegrain cereals, pulses, olive oil, little meat and zero sugar... an ancestral and frugal diet, based on local produce and motivated by the extreme poverty that prevailed in southern Europe at the time.

Its benefits for the heart have been proven since the 2000s, thanks to the vast Spanish Predimed study. Other researchers have demonstrated its protective effect against cancer. It could also reduce the risk of dementia.

We've always been looking for the perfect code to make our personal information 100% secure. But there's a catch: even the most secure key only remains secure until it is decrypted. The quantum computer is a major source of concern in this respect. It could soon decode current encryption systems, making all our digital data public.

A study of the ‘super-old’, individuals in their eighties or older with exceptionally high cognitive abilities comparable to those of much younger people. Through interviews and medical assessments, the active lives and physical and mental characteristics of some of these remarkable individuals in Germany are explored. The researchers seek to understand the secrets of their successful ageing, examining factors such as continuous physical and mental activity, social interactions and even brain structure. The aim is to identify elements that could benefit the elderly population in general, contributing to a healthier old age with less cognitive decline. The life stories of these inspiring people offer insights into strategies to maintain mental and physical vitality in advanced years.

Located very close to the Arctic Circle, Iceland is known for its harsh climate. And yet it's a vegetable paradise. The reason for this success? The volcanic underground heat that Iceland uses to heat its greenhouses. Some vegetable lovers go even further and forgo geothermal energy to grow vegetables outdoors.

The tumultuous history of the Paris museum and its fabulous collections, reflecting the destiny of France and Europe, through close-ups of iconic works.

How did the Louvre become the world's largest and most visited universal museum? Frédéric Wilner (Léonard de Vinci - Le chef-d'oeuvre redécouvert), with the help of specialists - historians, curators, and also Jean-Luc Martinez, Laurence des Cars' predecessor at the head of the institution - reviews the successive stages in the constitution of its dazzling collections, looking at the fascinating trajectory of mythical, founding works that tell the story of France and Europe.

For thirty years, it soared over the Atlantic at the speed of a speeding bullet. The only supersonic civil transport success story in history, Concorde was a true technical miracle. This is the fascinating story of the elegant supersonic airliner's tragic fate.

Landing in New York earlier than they had left London or Paris (due to the time difference), Concorde passengers had the illusion of flying back in time. Only a select few could afford the trip: businessmen and celebrities willing to pay $10,000 for a ticket.

When one of the aircraft crashed in Gonesse on July 25, 2000, a minute and a half after takeoff, another Concorde had already taken off from Paris earlier in the day. On board, a passenger who had swapped places with one of the unfortunate victims of the crash, shot an amateur video.

Accusations rain down on the fashion world: ecocide, overproduction, waste, racism... How can we reinvent a particularly amoral system?

From one generation to the next, our relationship with work has changed profoundly in Europe. Although we are working longer throughout our lives, the length of the working week has fallen considerably. Several countries, such as Germany, are experimenting with a 4-day week. But what impact does this have on productivity? And what are the differences between European countries?

Climate disasters, global inequalities, the threat of a third world war... Wouldn't it be reassuring if a central international government were to tackle all these problems? That was the idea behind the creation of the United Nations.

In its current form, however, the UN is incapable of responding effectively to the major challenges of the 21st century. Is humanity ready for world government? If so, what form could such a body take, tasked with ensuring peace, reducing inequalities and remedying global warming?
