ABOUT ROBYN OPENSHAW + GREENSMOOTHIEGIRL.COM

I was on a quest to save my son’s life.

It was 2001, and my life was at a stand-still.

My little boy had been diagnosed with severe asthma and “Failure to Thrive.” He was below the fifth percentile for weight and in a revolving door of desperate pediatric visits and hospitalizations, on growth-stunting steroids, antibiotics, and bronchodilators--and the pediatric and E.R. doctors couldn’t seem to help him.

I knew there had to be a way for my son and me to live healthy, happy, fully functional lives – but as I sat in the pediatrician’s office, being told again that all they had to offer was drugs, and more drugs…I realized it was up to me to find the solution.

What did I have to lose?

The short answer is: about 70 pounds and 21 disease diagnoses of my own. But what I gained is the real story:

My son and I got our lives back. No more panic attacks. No more emergency room visits. No more dangerous prescription cocktails. No more antibiotics.

Robyn, 70 pounds and 21 diseases ago! Robyn today!

We gained an incredible abundance of energy and good health.

My son emerged from illness and I left obesity and many diagnoses and drugs behind, by shifting to a whole-foods, mostly plant-based diet.

Now I’m on a mission to educate and empower families all over the world to be healthier and happier, despite living in an increasingly toxic world.

Changing the world, one green smoothie at a time.
