"This is just the beginning. We plan to organize many more of these events. It's important for us to provide more direct access for consumers to leading experts in the natural health industry so they can understand the value and science of nutrients and where to find them in retail stores."

Organic & Natural Health's next retail educational event is scheduled for April 23 in partnership with the Syracuse, New York, health food store, Natur-Tyme.

"The Power of Nutrients" consumer retail program aligns with Organic & Natural Health's consumer outreach commitment that started this year with a focus on the benefits of vitamin D. Howard says their plan is to have a new nutrient focus each year that will engage consumers to participate in more population-based nutrient research spearheaded by GrassrootsHealth in order to scientifically prove how specific nutrients have a direct impact on disease prevention.
