My Story... 

​

My name is Ciara Mc Keown, I studied at Our Ladys Grammar School Newry, where my first interest in nutrition began during my Home Economics classes. I studied Human Nutrition at Northumbria University in Newcastle and my passion grew further from nutrition, to the health of the public as I completed a Master’s in Public Health in University College Dublin.

​

I have created this blog thanks to the encouragement from one of my best friends Amy O'Hagan (soon to be entrepreneur), to share some of my ideas and interests about all things health. I want this blog to represent a positive outlook on life and food, and to achieve this I will be sharing some of my favourite recipes that I love to cook. I want to encourage readers to follow a healthy lifestyle by presenting information (from my point of view) on an array of health topics based on sound evidence.

​

The blog is named ‘Keep it Ciara’ to represent all the information that will be shared from my point of view. Additionally, the name is quite broad and so are some health topics. I didn’t want to pick a specific name and be restricted to what I can discuss, I want to cover as many relevant topics as I can. Finally, I believe that Ciara is a fabulous name (no bias).

I hope you enjoy it and visit again soon!
