Vegfest Speakers
RCMP officer Dan Moskaluk and his wife Sheanne (featured in the documentary Eating You Alive) will share their story of hope, change, and an amazing journey back to health. Dan was diagnosed with stage four kidney cancer in 2013 and given up to two years to live. Today, they credit Dan’s good health (and Sheanne’s loss of 130 lbs) to their shift to a whole-foods, plant-based lifestyle. Dan is back at work full time and he and Sheanne travel extensively, sharing their story to inspire others to take charge of their health!
