About me

Hi, I’m Petra Nakashian — a passionate health and nutrition enthusiast with a deep-rooted drive to uncover what truly supports long-term wellbeing.

My journey into health and nutrition began early in life, and it became personal in the most profound way. I lost both of my parents to cancer at a young age — something that completely shifted how I look at health. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to learn everything I can about how to stay healthy, prevent disease, and live a longer, more vibrant life.

I spend countless hours reading books, reviewing studies, and digging into medical research. I own several trusted nutritional books focused on vitamins, minerals, and how they impact our bodies. From classics like How Not to Diet to Michael Pollan’s Food Rules, I’ve always sought knowledge from reliable, science-based sources — and that’s the same kind of information I share here on my blog.

Nutrition is my main passion, but I believe health isn’t just about what we eat — it’s also about what we put on our bodies. Over the years, I’ve switched to using natural skincare and cosmetic products to avoid the harmful chemicals hidden in so many everyday items.

One of my favourite things to do is dig into ingredient lists — especially in processed foods and drinks. I love uncovering hidden additives or misleading labels and sharing what I find in a way that’s simple and easy to understand. You really have to dig deep to understand what some of these ingredients are doing to our health, and that’s what I do here. I look at the science, not the marketing.

What you’ll find on this blog is not guesswork. I never write anything based on trends or assumptions — everything I share is evidence-based and thoroughly researched. I want you to be able to trust what you read here, knowing it comes from someone who genuinely cares and has done the work to back it up.

Whether you’re just starting to explore healthier living or you’ve been on this path for a while, I hope you find something useful and inspiring here. My goal is simple: to help you make informed, confident choices about your health so you can live a life full of energy, purpose, and joy.

Thanks so much for stopping by — and if you ever have a question or just want to chat about anything health-related, I’d love to hear from you.

Warm wishes,
Petra
