Can you improve your relationship by learning your love language?
Gary Chapman is the author of The Five Love Languages, a book first published in 1992 that outlines how people express and experience love. He argues that romantic miscommunications come about due to people expressing love to one another using different “languages”, and therefore struggle to understand one another. But, if you understand your own love language, you can ask for what you need and be in tune to the needs of your partner. According to Chapman, the different ways people can communicate their love is through; acts of service, gift-giving, physical touch, quality time, and words of affirmation. What are the 5 languages? Is there any science behind love languages? How does knowing the love languages help relationships?

Do aphrodisiacs really work?
Do You Really Know talks about love for Valentine's Day on February 14th! To understand everything about love relationships and current dating methods, we decipher together the new concepts that make love today.You’ve no doubt heard that certain foods can increase desire, or even improve sexual performance. Oysters, ginger, chocolate and strawberries are just a few examples of foods that supposedly have that magical effect. They’re labelled aphrodisiacs, a word which comes from the name of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love. There are very few scientific studies out there to back that belief up. In people who have blood circulation issues, some foods can have the same effect as Viagra, which relaxes the blood vessels and thereby improves blood flow to the genitals.Can food really have an impact on our level of sexual desire? What about alcohol? So why do people keep talking about aphrodisiacs if they don’t really work?

How will our bodies adapt to climate change?
As we enter 2023, we’re desperately looking for ways to combat human-induced climate change. It’s a worthy cause, but it’s clear that some irreversible effects have already happened, and that will continue for some time. So it would be foolish not to prepare for the reality of living on a planet which has undergone significant warming. There’s relatively little known about how our bodies will react, which is why France’s Human Adaptation Institute set up three Deep Climate expeditions to take place between December 2022 and June 2023. The project will help researchers understand better how the human body adapts to intense conditions. A team of 20 volunteer “climatonauts” with no field experience will be accompanied by explorer and project organiser Christian Clot.What goes on during the expeditions? What bodily functions do we have to deal with climate change?
