Welcome to Get Your Health Up!

This idea was created by Bboy Fantum (Robert) and Mary. We came up with this idea when Fantum started posting some of the food we were eating on his Facebook and had some friends comment and ask how to make it. Many people ask him for his advice on what to eat to sustain his lifestyle as a bboy/breaker/breakdancer.

Mary, on the other hand was making green smoothies on a daily basis when she got her hands on an old used Vitamix that her younger brother was no longer using.

Together, they decided to consolidate their pictures and recipes into a Facebook page called "Get Your Health Up" (www.facebook.com/getyourhealthup) and also began to post recipes on youtube (www.youtube.com/getyourhealthup).

Mary is currently a medical student and began posting information that she was learning in school. Over time more and more knowledge and information began to pile up and the only logical step was to begin to organize the vast amount of information into a blog.

We share vegan, raw-vegan plant based recipes that anyone can make and of course we like to make it a fun and easy experience.

Get Your Health Up encompasses every aspect of health, from food, fitness, knowledge, grocery shopping, general shopping, leisure, wellness, laughter, stress, love, friends, family and community. Get Your Health Up means the health of your life as a whole and not just one isolated aspect.

We also share the benefits of food and the latest research regarding food and health to prevent disease, to allow people to truly live to their fullest potential and to help people understand what they are eating. 

We would like to share this lifestyle with everyone and to show that it is very achievable. This is not our full time job and we are both very busy people, but we would like to show you that this is something anyone can incorporate into their lives. 

Thank you for visiting our blog and we hope this can be a fun and enjoyable resource for you.
