Wade Lightheart CSNA, Founder of the Institute of Advanced Natural Health Sciences, AKA The RAW Champion will help
bridge the gap between the mainstream's and the Raw food community's misperceptions of how to build muscle, achieve cosmetic physical ideals, and perform at an optimum level for sports performance on a plant based diet.
In this talk Wade demystifies and clarifies what it really takes for a high performance athlete to optimize their nutrition to achieve their performance and athletic ideals.
Wade is a certified sports nutritionist advisor, author, product formulator and a 3 Time Canadian National All-Natural Bodybuilding Champion and Mr. Universe competitor. Wade was able to achieve outstanding muscularity and international athletic success on a completely plant based diet.
Over the last decade Wade helped thousands of athletes from around the globe embrace a plant based diet for optimum performance. The dietary needs of an athlete differ significantly from those of the every day recreational athlete, raw-foodist, and those of the general population. As performance demands increase dietary adjustments must be made in order to produce optimum results.
Wade debunks many of the myths around protein demands, as well as some blind spots of the raw food community and the general population in regards for optimum sports performance.
In this highly entertaining and educational lecture Wade dives deep into the roll of enzymes, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, live amino acids from plants, essential fatty acids, and the combinations of carbohydrates required for optimum performance and cosmetic goals.
Today's society has put increasing demands on the individual for cosmetic appeal and physical ideals. Current dietary trends in the sports and performance world believe achieving low body fat levels and a highly muscled physique requires a highly acidic meat based diet that may compromise the long term health and career duration of the individual. The propagation of this fallacy has led the general population to believe that optimum performance on a plant based diet is not possible. Even members of the raw food and plant based diet communities often question if muscular and athletic performance ideals can be achieved on a plant based diet.
Wade is living proof that it is possible and provides a proven plant based performance dietary alternative for anyone including athletes that improves performance, enhances recovery, and optimizes muscle building potential. He also covers how individuals raised on conventional meat based performance diets can shift towards a plant based and raw diet while not compromising cosmetic and physical ideals.
Wade will give precise details into the training and dietary considerations for both males and females looking to achieve athletic excellence and their cosmetic physical ideals. These methods are based on over a decade of personal research coaching thousands of individuals from every age bracket, social, genetic, and psychological profile in every field of athletic endeavour. Don't miss the opportunity to enhance your personal plant based performance with Wade Lightheart

It has been said that Ayurveda predates creation, is beyond time,and eternally exists upon the spiritual realms, whilst the materialworlds undergo their cycles of birth and death. It is the science, theunderstanding, or the all-knowing of life. Brought to this planet by theRishis, the Vaidya Vairag, it has been applied in our modern times as ourmost sophisticated and experienced healthcare system. Yet, this oldestof the Vedas, in its most truthful expression, is the awareness and designof existence, and reveals to Soul its natural, preordained, and blessinglyprepared pathway to its re-awakening, revitalization, and its ultimatereunion with God.

Your voice is powerful! It can move mountains. Yet, we fall prey to the belief that it may not even be strong enough to blow a leaf. We secretly may fear that no one wants to hear us, or even that they will view us with judgment and criticism. When we do not speak our truth – no matter how raw or controversial it may feel – we not only step out of our power: we shirk our sacred responsibility to others to positively change their lives. Your voice can be used to transform the world. It can be used to create wealth, by bringing forth your holy offerings. And your voice can be used as an instrument of love, to share your light and your heart. Jonathan Bender, founder of WholeSpeak, and a coach/teacher of public speaking and performance training since 1996, will share why your voice is so incredibly important, and provide specific tools and techniques for how you can find your power, your voice, and your message.
Chef Be*Live will be sharing his experiences helping assist people with serious emotional eating habits by educating them and transitioning them from an unhealthy lifestyle into a more optimal one with his raw living cuisine.
This is an open discussion and question and answer with Wade Lightheart CSNA 3 Time Canadian All-Natural National Bodybuilding Champion discussion where people ask specific questions on how to build muscle, lose fat, or improve athletic performance on a plant based/raw diet.
Wade will share why many men who switch to a raw or plant based diet lose muscle and more importantly how to make the transition without losing muscle.
Wade will also address why many women have challenges maintaining ideal body fat levels when they switch to a raw/ plant based diet. He will also include suggestions for improving metabolism, dealing with cold climates, as well as eating for your chosen sport.
This discussion is completely informal and will likely touch on the psychology involved in performance based diets as well as the social implications and their effects on the individual.
He will also candidly answer personal questions about his own evolution from a meat eating athlete to a RAW bodybuilding champion and beyond.
Wade has coached 1000's of athletes from all age brackets, body types, and physical goals and he draws on this real world experience to provide workable solutions in an every increasing toxic world.
He will also be available to sign his latest book Staying Alive in a Toxic World co-written with Katrine Volynsky.

The western world has a lot of power to influence and create a better planet, but most of us our so stuck in self-destructive patterns and distracted with different mechanisms of avoiding our own pain and emotional baggage- that we cannot evolve into the highest potential of ourselves.

But time is speeding up and the time is now for us to do away with whatever we hold onto that isn't serving our path so we can claim our power. This is the time to get into a place where we can optimally direct our energies to whatever cause we feel in our hearts is the most important to our growth and the growth of the people around us and the planet.

Health of the physical body is one spoke on the wheel of wellness and it cannot be ignored if you want to be living your highest potential. Taking the time to understand which foods resonate highest with the human body is so beneficial to having a clear mind and optimum energy to walk your path here.

Nutrition and Peak Performance specialist Ronnie Landis will be delivering an entertaining presentation on the deep down mystery of nutrition by adding in the very best options we have available! This lecture will focus on three primary categories of nutrition in order to create a more complete and accurate picture of health that everyone can apply to their lives.
Raw Plant Foods: The set point of the human blueprint for nutrition begins with plant foods that are kept in their natural and whole form uninhibited by heat, processing, or artificial fillers.
The Insurance Plan: Instead of investing in health insurance we want to invest in health assurance. In order to address the biological individuality everyone has we move into unique super foods(whole food concentrates) and person specific supplements in order to ensure each of us can fill in the nutritional gaps that our basic food choices may not allow us.
Medicinal Herbs: We incorporate time tested adaptogenic herbs as a way to help boost and maintain our entire body system in order to keep us in pristine balance. The ancient wisdom of century old herbal systems go hand in hand with the raw food approach. Herbs contain invaluable medicinal compounds that are not found in our conventional(or organic) food supply therefore herbalism becomes a natural approach to medicine.

We are living in a radioactive world now. The nuclear disaster at Fukushima, Japan is but the latest and most horrific of a long history of nuclear accidents Ken Rohla Teachingthat have been minimized and covered up by the nuclear industry and the mainstream controlled press. "Geoengineers" are now publicly admitting to dumping 10 to 20 million metric tons of barium, aluminum, and strontium powders into the atmosphere each year. (See the documentary, Why in the World are They Spraying? for more details.) Radioactive particles of cesium, iodine, americium, plutonium, xenon, strontium are now circling the globe, with elevated levels being measured in food and water supplies across the US, and increasing mortality rates are being linked to it. That doesn't include the global fallout from the Chernobyl nuclear accident which has been documented to have caused nearly a million deaths and contaminated over a half billion people, including causing birth defects on the US east coast. According to Greenpeace, there have been 2,044 atomic bomb detonations on Earth, an average of one blast every nine days since the first blast in 1945. There are at least six genetically engineered microbes being widely used in our environment, with little to no testing. We are well on our way to a mass extinction, and yet, there are solutions for all of it! When you understand the universe is a matter-energy system of polarities, when problems manifest, so do their solutions. If consciousness creates reality, then we can create solutions to even these large problems. Come hear Ken Rohla share solutions to these problems that you can do to protect yourself, your family, your food and water, and your property. Bring paper and writing instrument, Ken always gives out a lot of very specific useful info!

Are you ready for the truth?
2013 is the year we make it or break it. Forget everything you’ve ever heard. The answer isn’t “out there”. True health, prosperity, peace and happiness come from letting go of everything you know and hold valuable. Very few have this courage. Going after something only pushes it away, it needs to come to you. Forget the economy. Stop waiting. If you want true freedom to never get sick again, do anything you want, anytime, anywhere, you must attend this lecture. The truth is universal and incredibly simple. There is romance in every breath, every moment of pain and every thing we eat, say and take in. If you want to REALLY live, prepare to be set free

Did you know that your body has unique, intelligent signatures embedded within the body fluids of your urine, blood and saliva? And did you know that these signatures can be used to create your own personalized remedy for healing? There is a reason why traditional medicine uses these bodily fluids not only for diagnostic care, but also for medicinal values and for use in drug design. It’s because the body holds its intelligent signatures within it for directly matched healing. The good news is, you too can use these signatures for healing. In this presentation, you will learn how to make your own Self-Signature Remedy. In short, “a dose of your own medicine.”
