Many new natural food brands often struggle to find their footing in this ever-expanding market. With trends that are in constant flux, it can be quite difficult for new brands to find a niche within the natural foods market that can offer long-term sustainability. This week on Beyond the Shelf we spoke with Jeff Grogg, who is the Managing Director at JPG Resources. In this episode, we discussed the recent history of the natural foods industry, as well as common pitfalls new brands often fall into. Jeff also shared with us why microtrends (such as trendy ingredient-based products) have a short shelf life, and what sort of macrotrends brands should focus on when creating new products.

Dr. Death
We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. We trust the person at the other end of that scalpel. We trust the hospital. We trust the system. Christopher Duntsch was a neurosurgeon who radiated confidence. He claimed he was the best in Dallas. If you had back pain, and had tried everything else, Dr. Duntsch could give you the spine surgery that would take your pain away. But soon his patients started to experience complications, and the system failed to protect them. Which begs the question: who - or what - is that system meant to protect? From Wondery, the network behind the hit podcast Dirty John, DR. DEATH is a story about a charming surgeon, 33 patients and a spineless system. Reported and hosted by Laura Beil.
