      It’s not a secret that Vancouver is one of the most health-conscious cities in the country—we’re often identified as a yoga-forward, hike-friendly, vegan-inclusive, green-juice-loving place. Those who enjoy fostering a nutritious lifestyle for both mind and body may want to check out this upcoming event in the city.

      The 28th annual Vancouver Health Show returns to the Vancouver Convention Centre (East Building, 999 Canada Place) on October 27 and 28. Attendees can expect to learn about everything from health and fitness trends to nourishing food products to home-organizing.

      This year’s event includes demonstrations on how to cook quick and healthy meals, health experts delivering talks, educational seminars, a showcase of health products, and food sampling.

      There will be a packed speaking schedule on both days of the health show, and guests are encouraged to arrive early—the first 100 people who enter will receive a special goody bag. The event’s keynote presenter, best-selling author Michael Losier, will deliver a talk each day: The Law of Attraction: How to Reset Your Vibes on the first, and Emotion Code the following day.

      Vancouver-based journalist Amanda Siebert—former Georgia Straight staffer and author of The Little Book of Cannabis: How Marijuana Can Improve Your Life—will be speaking at 4:20 p.m. each day on the legalization and impact of cannabis in the city.

      There’s more to healthy living than exercising and eating your veggies. This health show will give guests insight into things like differentiating GMO from non-GMO products, weight loss, pain relief, heart and eye health, cholesterol levels, raw diets, plant-based diets, and more.

      Tickets ($15 to $22.50) can be purchased at the door (cash only) or online.
