Hi readers, 

I am Nicole, an 18-year old student studying Communications at the University of Malta. The combination of my love for writing and my recently discovered passion for food is what mainly inspired me to start this blog. I come from a family of foodies who inspire me on a daily basis and from whom I have learnt everything I know so far!

As the title suggests, I will be using this blog to confess with you some of my opinions and tips relating to food, health, nutrition, veganism and all things lifestyle. I will be analyzing and sharing with you articles which I find particularly interesting and insightful. 

I am excited to share with you my journey through the culinary world and all the beautiful things it entails. 

Until next time!

Your fellow foodie.

Moreover, a diet which includes too much sugar may lead to excessive weight gain, it may increase your risk of heart disease, may cause acne and it has also been linked to cancer and depression! It may also fasten the skin and cellular aging process among other things. Foodnews says that “the true nature of sugar has long been suppressed by a greedy, profit-driven industry”.
