286. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Natalie Crawford, a board-certified fertility doctor with a nutrition background, to talk about what women aren't being taught about fertility and hormonal health. She breaks down how to understand your menstrual cycle, and explains the benefits of learning this even before you're ready to have kids. We also talk about how mindset, lifestyle, exercise and sleep can contribute toward fertility, especially if you're in your late 30s and 40s. This conversation shifts the narrative away from fear and age and back to the health of the woman. Topics Discussed: → How does hormonal birth control impact fertility and the menstrual cycle? → Why should you track your cycle naturally? → When does health matter more than age when trying to get pregnant? → What is AMH and when should you check your levels? → What is the biggest factor impacting fertility?

Meanwhile, the culture war rolls on — from Tucker Carlson's Islam controversy and JD Vance's looming response, to Greg Gutfeld absolutely dismantling Jessica Tarlov on The Five.Plus: the FBI raids a Georgia election office, Trump's new “baby accounts” gain corporate backing, Nicki Minaj publicly supports Trump, and Marco Rubio dominates a Senate hearing while Duckworth's line of attack falls flat.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW!Get delicious Masa Chips at https://MasaChips.com/CHICKS, use code CHICKS for 25% off first order—or grab Masa at Sprouts nationwide!Feel your best with Beam Creatine — visit https://ShopBeam.com/CHICKS and use code CHICKS for up to 30% off.Visit https://ChicksLoveOliveOil.com and get a full-size $39 bottle of fresh-pressed olive oil for just $1 shipping—no commitment!

Brandon shares how Surely became a leader in non-alcoholic wine and why nearly 90 percent of its customers still drink alcohol. Rather than targeting only those who are sober, the brand connects with people who want to enjoy wine on their own terms. He also introduces Arlow, the first legally recognized low-alcohol wine brand in the United States, offering half the calories and zero sugar while maintaining the full-bodied experience wine lovers expect.Listeners will learn how Arlow's concept grew from Brandon's deep understanding of consumer behavior and his curiosity about where the market was heading. He explains the technical challenges of dealcoholization, how his California-based team perfected the process, and what it takes to create a wine that meets both taste and quality standards in this emerging space.Beyond product development, Brandon discusses how Surely and Arlow have scaled from direct-to-consumer beginnings to major retail success. Today, Surely can be found in Target, Sprouts, Total Wine & More, and Spec's. He explains how the company's focus on profitability and sustainable growth has allowed it to thrive in a changing industry where investors now value lean operations over rapid expansion.As the conversation continues, Brandon shares leadership lessons from two distinct growth phases: one centered on fast-paced scaling and another built around operational discipline. He offers insights into the importance of communication, team alignment, and company culture, noting that even high-performing employees can hold a business back if they are not the right cultural fit.Brandon also reflects on his journey as a leader, emphasizing the need for transparency and collaboration, both with his team and with his investors. His approach to management highlights how curiosity, accountability, and clear communication can drive consistent results without compromising values.Now rooted in Austin with his family, Brandon talks about what makes Texas the perfect home for entrepreneurs like him. From the state's unique energy to its strong business community and culinary culture, he shares why Texas has become the ideal place to grow both personally and professionally.Whether you are interested in brand strategy, leadership, or the evolving world of consumer products, this episode offers a thoughtful look at how clarity of purpose and innovative thinking can build a business that lasts.LINKSShow NotesPrevious EpisodesAbout BoyarMillerAbout Surely WineAbout Arlow Wine

On the latest episode of the Omnichannel Marketer, I had the pleasure of speaking with Colin Flood, VP of Marketing at Unreal Snacks. Unreal Snacks is a better-for-you chocolate snack brand.Unreal Snacks started in convenience and drug stores (CVS, Walgreens) ten years ago and through trial and error made it to natural grocery, where it gained the traction required to get to successful in mainstream grocery and convenience..True to this podcast, today Unreal Snacks has omnichannel distribution. Colin defines Omnichannel as the strategy of getting in front of your customers (advertising, purchase, and consumption) where they are and being presented as a solution for hunger in a way that drives growth and scale.For Unreal Snacks, that is the DTC website, Amazon, and 25,000 doors across natural, traditional grocery, and club stores. You can find Unreal Snack products Whole Foods, Wegmans, Sprouts, Publix, and Costco.The keys to success on retail growth have been:1️⃣ The right retailer (natural) 2️⃣ Closer to or at cash registers (not the candy aisle, which people avoid)3️⃣ Part of seasonal campaign promotions (Valentine's Day, Halloween etc).4️⃣ Better for you messaging calling people back to categoryBrian describes this placement as “lower funnel,” the offline equivalent of being closer to the add to cart button. Brian is excited about the new trends in digital for the grocery category.It's worth pointing out that Unreal chocolate can melt, so shipping is a challenge and requires ice packs in certain regions at certain times of the year.But he sees local delivery / in-store pickup and retail marketing platform spend as new digital levers that grocery marketers can pull to stimulate growth. Thanks Colin for sharing your story and perspective.

This week, Tee speaks with chef and entrepreneur Thomas Odermatt about the health benefits and culinary tradition behind bone broth. Raised in his family's award-winning butcher shop in San Gottardo, Switzerland, Thomas developed a deep respect for artisanal butchery, rotisserie cooking, and a nose-to-tail approach to food. After earning a master's degree in organic farming in Zürich, Thomas moved to the United States to study at UC Berkeley, where he was influenced by the Bay Area's evolving gourmet food scene. In 2002, his pursuit of the perfect rotisserie chicken led to the creation of Roli Roti, America's first gourmet rotisserie food truck. As the business grew, Thomas's commitment to sustainability inspired the launch of Butcher's Bone Broth, an organic, slow-simmered product rooted in quality, flavor, and responsible food practices. Today, the broth is available in over 10,000 stores nationwide, including Costco, Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, and Publix. In this episode, Tee and Chef Thomas discuss the benefits of bone broth for gut, skin, and joint health, share tips for making it at home, and explore the importance of reducing food waste through mindful cooking.

Sprouts Farmers Market has issued a recall for its Sprouts Organic Gluten-Free Four Cheese Lasagna after the product “tested positive for gluten above the acceptable limits for Gluten-Free certification.” The recall, dated December 16, 2025, underscores the serious risks mislabeling can pose for people with celiac disease or gluten allergies, for whom even small amounts of gluten can trigger significant—and sometimes “life-threatening”—reactions, as noted in the Sprouts notice.The recall affects shoppers across a wide geographic footprint. According to its website, Sprouts Farmers Market operates in approximately 24 states, with its highest concentration of stores in California, followed by Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Colorado. The chain also has stores in states such as Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Tennessee, among others.The product is packaged in a 9-ounce brown and yellow box bearing a picture of the lasagna, and can be identified by the UPC code 6-46670-51140.

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!Most grocery retailers are chasing a $1.6 trillion market but Sprouts Farmers Market is deliberately ignoring $1.3 trillion of it. Join Shelley and Nick Konat, President and COO of Sprouts, as they reveal why the retailer has a laser focus on the $300 billion health enthusiast segment. Marching to a different drummer, Sprouts is driving 8 to 10 percent annual store growth while competitors struggle with more conventional strategies. That alone makes Sprouts a 2025 Crave Retail Radical! Learn how the retailer is expanding from 23 states to coast-to-coast while maintaining a smaller, more intimate format that runs countertrend to the superstore orthodoxy dominating the industry. The company's counterintuitive approach celebrates the fact that customers will shop elsewhere. Sprouts is banking on solving the friction points that plague being a healthy eater: limited access to product, high costs, confusing claims, and mediocre taste. Sprouts is a model in retaining talent with a 30 percent internal promotion rate, and its purpose-driven ethos translates into solid bottom-line results. Nick explains why Sprouts is perfectly aligned with the explosive growth in the health food category among Gen Z and millennials. This strategy isn't about trends but rather about supporting longevity-focused consumption behavior that will reshape grocery.

280: Today I'm joined by Aaron Siri, Managing Partner of the law firm Siri & Glimstad LLP and a leading voice in the vaccine safety movement. He takes an evidence-based approach to the world of vaccinology, and is presenting a practical look at why vaccines have become more like religion than science. You may recognize him from the documentary “An Inconvenient Study” produced by Del Big Tree and the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) - now Aaron is answering questions about lawsuits over vaccine safety and whether we can legally consider these doses “safe and effective.” Topics Discussed: → What is the latest litigation over vaccine safety? → Why are there so few studies on vaccines' long term effects? → What does the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 actually mean for pharmaceutical companies' liability and protection? → How has public trust in vaccines shifted? → Should the government be involved with vaccine regulations?

The success story keeps rolling for Kiwi company AF Drinks. The alcohol-free brand has just secured nationwide distribution in the UK with supermarket giant Morrisons. It follows on from their US expansion, with them now stocked in over 4000 stores including Target, Walmart, and Sprouts. Founder Lisa King told Mike Hosking there's been a huge trend towards alcohol moderation. She says that a lot of people are still drinking alcohol, but they're moderating it and choosing to drink less or drink non-alcoholic versions.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for November 26th Publish Date: November 26th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Wednesday, November 26th and Happy Birthday to I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: Ingles 1 STORY 1: Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving’s almost here, and let’s be honest—someone’s gonna forget the cranberry sauce or run out of butter. Happens every year, right? If you’re that person (no judgment), don’t panic. While big stores like Walmart, Target, and Costco are taking the day off, a handful of grocery stores will have their doors open—just with shorter hours. Here’s the deal: Amazon Fresh? 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Food Lion? Closing at 3 (or 4 in some spots). Sprouts? Open till 7. Walgreens? Only the 24-hour ones. Moral of the story? Double-check your stores—or embrace the chaos. STORY 2: Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes The Marietta Pilgrimage Christmas Home Tour is back for its 39th year, running Dec. 5–7, and this time it’s all about the historic Kennesaw Avenue neighborhood. Think festive, decked-out homes, rich history, and a little holiday magic. Five private homes—plus churches, museums, and other historic spots—are opening their doors. Highlights? The 1840 Gignilliat-Griffin-Gilbert House with its Romanesque marble mantels, and the Buttolph House, where 12-foot ceilings and original fireplaces have been lovingly restored. Tickets are $35 in advance ($40 during the tour) and cover all three days. Complimentary shuttles will run from Mill Street. For tickets and details, visit mariettapilgrimage.com. STORY 3: Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales Cobb County just tightened the leash on unregulated pet sales. A new ordinance, approved unanimously by the Board of Commissioners, now lets animal services officers issue citations for illegal roadside sales of dogs, cats, and rabbits—think parking lots, flea markets, and sidewalks. The ordinance doesn’t stop licensed breeders or pop-up adoptions, but it cracks down on shady sellers. Ann Lewis and her 9-year-old twins, Hadley and Ellie, spoke in support. “We’ve seen puppies sold from car trunks,” Ellie said. Three related amendments also passed, including one allowing shelters to shorten hold times during emergencies. Cobb’s shelter has already taken in over 6,200 animals this year, and space is tight. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: STRAND THEATRE STORY 4: MHS students and volunteers help feed hundreds ahead of Thanksgiving break Marietta High didn’t just hand out food before Thanksgiving break—they showed up for their people. Over 200 families walked away with bags full of fresh produce and pantry staples, thanks to a team effort that felt more like a big, messy family reunion than a food drive. The JROTC kids and football players? They were out there at the crack of dawn on Nov. 19, hauling 10,000 pounds of food like champs. Superintendent Dr. Grant Rivera put it best: “This is what community looks like. Our students know they’re cared for, supported, and surrounded by love.” It’s not just a holiday thing, either—MHS has families’ backs all year long. STORY 5: ‘No more good 10 acres’: Parks director lays out path forward for Cobb Cobb County’s running out of land for parks—like, really running out. Michael Brantley, the parks director, didn’t sugarcoat it when he spoke to the Kiwanis Club. “There’s no good 100-acre plots left. Heck, not even 10-acre ones,” he said. Land’s expensive, and what’s left? Not exactly prime real estate. So, what’s the plan? Brantley says it’s time to rethink what we’ve already got—revamp, redevelop, make it work. Oh, and there’s the Tritt property, nearly 30 acres near East Cobb Park. It’s tied up in restrictions, but there’s hope. And trails? Big plans there—connecting the Silver Comet to the Beltline? Game-changer. Break: STORY 6: Public comment sought on Orrs Ferry plan Got thoughts on the future of Orrs Ferry? The National Park Service wants to hear ’em. They’re working on a big plan—like, 20 years big—for the Chattahoochee River’s Orrs Ferry unit, and they’re asking the public to weigh in by Dec. 21. What’s in the works? On the west side: new trails, restrooms, picnic spots, parking, and even a restored meadow. The east side? A bridge over Crayfish Creek, trail connections, and water access. Oh, and they’re rethinking old buildings—repurpose or remove? Got ideas? What’s missing? Check out the plan (and comment!) online. Your voice matters. STORY 7: Cumberland to launch driverless shuttle system Cumberland’s gearing up for something straight out of the future: driverless shuttles. Thanks to $6.6 million in federal funding (plus $1.1 million from the CID), a fleet of eight ADA-accessible, autonomous shuttles is set to hit the streets in 2027. They’ll loop through hotspots like Truist Park, the Cobb Convention Center, Cumberland Mall, and even the Chattahoochee River. Kim Menefee, CID’s Executive Director, calls it a game-changer for transit—healthier communities, less traffic, and a model for the whole country. Oh, and rides? Free. The Hopper pilot proved it works, with 11,000 riders onboard. The future’s rolling in. We’ll have closing comments after this.

The latest AgNet News Hour delivers a wide-ranging look at the issues shaping American agriculture—from meat-industry shakeups to the rapid evolution of organic farming technology. Hosts Nick Papagni and Lorrie Boyer blend personal updates with in-depth interviews and industry analysis, creating a vivid picture of the pressures and opportunities facing today's producers. Holiday Reflections and Shifting Trends in American Beef The program opens with lighthearted Thanksgiving conversation, including cooking traditions and reflections on a recent interview about preparing the perfect turkey. But the tone quickly shifts as the hosts discuss a major jolt to the U.S. beef industry: Tyson Foods' decision to close a key Nebraska processing facility. The plant, which employed roughly 3,000 workers and handled nearly 5% of daily U.S. beef slaughter, has broad implications for cattle markets, regional economies, and long-term production capacity. Nick and Lorrie explore the underlying pressures contributing to the closure, including: Declining cattle numbers Rising labor and operational costs Expanding automation Increasing regulatory burdens Concerns for rural communities dependent on packing-house jobs These factors, they note, are reshaping beef production and accelerating the push toward efficiency and technology across the supply chain. Spotlight on the Organic Grower Summit in Monterey The show transitions into an extended conversation with Matt Jungmann, Senior Director of Events for the Organic Grower Summit (OGS), scheduled for December 3–4 in Monterey, California. Jungmann outlines the mission and growth of the summit, which brings together growers, researchers, suppliers, and innovators advancing the organic marketplace. He highlights several key components of this year's event: Educational Sessions & Key Issues Regulatory challenges for U.S. organic producers Labor shortages and rising wage pressures Banking, finance, and risk management Regenerative farming and soil health Marketing, consumer trends, and retailer engagement Retail chains such as Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Sprouts—longtime champions of organic demand—continue to play a significant role in pushing the category forward. Automation, Robotics, and New Tech Demonstrations Jungmann emphasizes that technology is becoming a central force in the organic sector. While organic acreage is growing steadily rather than rapidly, he notes that the barriers to converting new ground remain high. For many producers, automation offers a path to improved efficiency and long-term sustainability. Among the most anticipated summit attractions: Autonomous weeding and cultivation machines AI-driven tools for mechanical pest and weed control Concept robotics from startups such as Reservoir Hands-on demonstrations showing how machines perform in real organic environments He stresses that as chemical options narrow—especially with fewer new pesticides entering the organic toolbox—mechanical and robotic solutions are filling critical gaps. Community, Collaboration, and the Organic Grower of the Year Beyond technology, Youngman celebrates the strong community that defines organic agriculture. The summit fosters a sense of fellowship, giving growers space to exchange ideas, compare seasons, and learn from firsthand experience. He also highlights the Organic Grower of the Year finalists, representing innovation, stewardship, and leadership across multiple states. The award underscores the dedication required to farm organically in an era marked by rising costs, fluctuating markets, and rigorous regulatory frameworks. California's Regulatory Reality vs. the Rest of the Nation The interview includes a candid discussion of how California's farming environment differs dramatically from states like Illinois, where Jungmann grew up. California producers face: Significantly higher labor costs More intensive regulatory requirements Water uncertainty Environmental compliance challenges Market pressures from global competitors with lower production costs Jungmann argues that the future of California agriculture may hinge on growers' ability to embrace new efficiencies—and events like OGS help equip them for that transition. Industry Conversations Continue at the National Association of Farm Broadcasting Convention After the interview concludes, the show returns to Lorrie Boyer, who recounts her recent trip to the National Association of Farm Broadcasting annual convention in Kansas City. The event provided a deep dive into: Commodity and livestock market outlooks Fertilizer prices and global supply chains Weather impacts on crop production Innovations in machinery and agritech Geopolitical pressures influencing U.S. agriculture Consumer nutrition trends and the federal MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) report She also notes discussions around Proposition 12, nutrition policy, new consumer-facing pork campaigns, and the impact of synthetic food dyes on children's health. Rising Consumer Awareness and the Push for Better Food Quality The show ends with a discussion about food dyes and the slow pace of regulatory change. A parent from California shared how removing dyes transformed her son's health—an example the hosts use to highlight growing consumer scrutiny of food ingredients. This concern ties directly back to the organic movement and the mission of improving food quality, even as healthier products come at a higher cost. Final Thoughts From meat-industry upheaval to breakthroughs in organic farming, the AgNet News Hour offers a candid snapshot of modern agriculture's evolving landscape. Whether it's automation, regulation, or shifting consumer demands, producers across the country are adapting quickly—and conversations like these help illuminate the challenges and opportunities ahead.

Most founders focus on selling their products, but few take the time to teach people why they matter. For Shizu Okusa, that difference has become her biggest advantage in business. A former Wall Street trader turned wellness entrepreneur, Shizu is the founder and CEO of Apothékary–a brand known as "Mother Nature's Pharmacy." What started in her kitchen, mixing herbs like maca and ashwagandha, has grown into a nationwide brand stocked in Ulta, Sprouts, and 500+ stores across the U.S. Shizu's lessons in business will change your approach to connecting with customers. Education Over Persuasion If you want people to trust your brand, stop selling and start teaching. Shizu discovered that most consumers don't reject wellness products because they don't care; they reject them because they don't understand them. By focusing on education instead of persuasion, she turned curiosity into loyalty. From breaking down the science behind adaptogens to teaching why liquid tinctures outperform pills, Apothékary built authority through honesty — and showed that sharing knowledge is the strongest form of marketing. Growth Without Burnout Fast growth means nothing if you burn out in the process. Shizu's journey is a reminder to pace your ambition. She shares how defining her investor relationships, protecting her energy, and staying rooted in purpose helped her scale Apothékary without losing herself. Her approach challenges every founder to ask: Are you building something that grows fast, or something that lasts? Enjoy this episode with Shizu Okusa… Soundbytes 08:23 - 08:31 "And so there's just a lot of education that actually is marketing. We primarily think ourselves as an education company more than anything else." 30:54 - 31:13 "The company will grow exponentially, and people grow linearly. So, when I say that, what that basically means is, your company is going to be pacing with consumer demand or market growth. And so if your company and your market's growing exponentially, there is no way you can have the same expectation for people to grow exponentially." Quotes "The company will grow exponentially, and people grow linearly." "There really is a cost that comes with growth." "I think of myself as an editor of the brand, more than a face of the brand." "Our bodies are really powerful compasses, and it takes one to quiet down and really listen and tune in."

Nathan Jones, CEO of Xlear, Inc., details the benefits of xylitol in dental and respiratory health products such as nasal sprays and chewing gums under the Spry brand. Nathan advocates for the FDA to allow anti-cavity claims for xylitol and other compounds despite the current monopoly of fluoride in such claims. They question the efficacy and potential downsides of fluoride, and explore alternative dental health interventions. The episode also covers xylitol's role in preventing tooth decay, respiratory health benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic, and ongoing legal challenges with the FTC. Discussions highlight the potential implications of oral health on systemic diseases like cardiovascular disease and Parkinson's, and emphasize the importance of nasal hygiene alongside dental care.
Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Nathan Jones, CEO of Xlear, Inc.

The team speculates on Carol's potential influence on the hive mind and the series' direction while appreciating the show's clever humor and stunning visuals.
Is Carol THE WORST? We debate the lead character and every facet of PLURIBUS season 1 episode 3 'Grenade'! Is she abusing her power to get the local Sprouts supermarket back up and running? Should anyone spend their last months of free thinking watching The Golden Girls? How could a person attack the nicest person on Earth: pot-smoking travel guru Rick Steves?!?

On this week's episode - Wade and Gavin chat with Jonathan Lawrence. Jonathan has an extensive background in retail, growing up in his family business, Arizona Health Foods, Sunflower Farmers Market, Sprouts and most recently an 11 year run at Fresh Thyme Market that featured several leadership positions! Jonathan is now Vice President of Sales of Natural/Specialty at Advantage Solutions working with brands, retailers, and his team on maximizing penetration of brands in those retailers. We talk all things retail, leading teams, opening stores, brokering and his guess on how many steak dinners Gavin ate and didn't pay for.
In this episode, we sit down with Michael, Founder & CEO of Rotten, the better-for-you candy brand that's rewriting the rules of CPG with bold flavor, unapologetic branding, and an omnichannel strategy built for today's consumer.Michael shares the unexpected origin story behind Rotten—from his childhood obsession with sour gummies to realizing the “healthy” candy world felt too clinical and joyless. Instead of leaning into the typical wellness aesthetic, he embraced rebellion, nostalgia, and fun, creating a brand that looks indulgent but performs better.We cover everything from branding that disrupts the aisle, to acquisition tactics in an impulse-driven category, to how Rotten approaches retention when customers bounce between Sprouts, Amazon, TikTok Shop, airports, and DTC. Michael also breaks down the surprising not-so-seasonal nature of candy, the power of founder-led content, and why an omnichannel retention strategy is the only realistic approach for modern CPG brands.If you're interested in brand building, retail expansion, customer behavior, or breaking conventions in a crowded market, this episode delivers a masterclass in standing out—by being unapologetically different.

Cavities are still one of America's most common diseases – despite decades of fluoride use. Xlear is calling on the FDA to recognize xylitol as an active anticaries ingredient so dental professionals and patients can finally access this powerful tool. Xylitol, a safe and natural compound, has been proven to stop cavity- causing bacteria and dramatically reduce tooth decay.The American Dental Hygienist Association (ADHA) in conjunction with Xlear, a leader in hygiene products, filed a citizen petition with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) urging the FDA to formally recognize xylitol as an approved Over-the-Counter (OTC) active ingredient in dental hygiene products, including toothpaste, rinses, gels, mouthwashes, gums, and lozenges.Xylitol addresses the root cause of tooth decay. In contrast, fluoride strengthens tooth enamel. Fluoride has almost no effect on the bacteria that causes tooth decay. Studies have shown that xylitol has a higher “protection factor” in fighting cavities than fluoride.“Dental decay is the single most common communicable, chronic disease inflicting Americans today. Moreover, dental decay is also closely associated with driving other serious health risks - ranging from heart disease to diabetes,” said Trisha O'Hehir, MS, RDH.Key Facts:· Nearly 90% of U.S. adults have experienced tooth decay.· Studies show xylitol can reduce cavities by up to 80%.· Xylitol works by neutralizing acid-producing bacteria and protecting enamel at the source.· Xylitol is safe if swallowed, a key benefit for children.· Widely used internationally, xylitol is already found in gum and oral hygiene products. The petition requests that FDA: Amend 21 C.F.R. Part 355 to list xylitol as an approved anti-caries active ingredient. Alternatively, issue a new OTC monograph under Section 505G of the FDCA.Learn more about the Petition hereXlear is one of the nation's leaders in effective xylitol hygiene products, available inpharmacies, big box stores, natural retailers and online.XLEAR's Retailers: Walgreens, CVS, Vitamin Shoppe, Target, Kroger, Sprouts, Natural Grocers and most natural products retailers nationwide.XLEAR's Online Retailers: Amazon, iHerb, Lucky Vitamin, and Vitacost.comLearn more at Xlear.com or SprySmile.com
