Three fundamental aspects affect the relationship between our diet and overall health (human and planetary): the degree of food processing (“Vrai/Real” as opposed to “false”, ultra-processed food), the proportion of animal/plant products (“Vegetable”) and dietary diversity (“Varied“).

In France, 50% of people are overweight or obese. In its 2022 report, the World Health Organisation sounded the alarm: the prevalence of overweight and obesity is rising steadily – and worryingly – and not a single European Member State looks set to meet the target of halting the rise in obesity by 2025. Obesity is a serious public health problem on a global scale, leading to a host of complications, including an increased risk of cancer – because excess weight increases the likelihood of 13 different types of cancer.

Seen from the sky, our blue planet does not appear to be short of water. It is true that water covers more than 70% of the Earth’s surface – but 97% of it is salty, and only 3% is freshwater. This freshwater is essential to the balance of ecosystems and our health.To make the best use of this resource, it is important to understand where it comes from and how it is used, so that we can develop the right habits individually and collectively.
