Myers Beach, FL. In a world defined by COVID, the dietary supplement industry faces enormous stresses. The complexity of an international supply chain is challenged by labor shortages, transportation issues and a demand, bordering on obsession, for the ingredients and products that consumers want. At the same time, we know environmental stress places the very future of our industry at a critical juncture. The health of people and planet are deeply enmeshed; a fact our consumers are very clear on. So yes, we all need to start breathing the solution. And, that\u2019s just what happened at our January conference.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<div id=\"article-box\">\n<div><span style=\"font-size:16px\">The most amazing things happen when you put representation from every partner in the supply chain in one room. At O&amp;N Health, everyone from raw ingredients suppliers to distributors, manufacturer and brands, and retailers and consumers are equal stakeholders. It is a wealth of knowledge and expertise that must not be wasted. So when we traveled to Mackinac Island in August 2021, the intention was set. We asked O&amp;N Health members what we need to do, what we must have, and what we can take advantage of to support consumers and effectively utilize the resources at hand.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"td-a-rec td-a-rec-id-content_inlineleft  tdi_58 td_block_template_1\">\n<div id=\"article-box\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201dThese are the words of Renee Southard, president of SENPA, from the 7th Annual Organic &amp; Natural Health Conference in Ft.
