The Meat Mafia Podcast

We’re thrilled to have Dr. Nazlie Latefi, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer at BioVanta, join us on the podcast. Dr. Latefi gives an inside look at the surprising lack of innovation in the over-the-counter medicine industry. She explains how most cold and flu remedies rely on outdated formulas developed back in the 1930s, with ingredients like pseudoephedrine and dextromethorphan that are ineffective yet still commonly used today.

As a scientist pursuing her PhD in molecular neuroscience, Dr. Latefi started questioning why OTC options hadn’t evolved to address root causes like inflammation. This curiosity ultimately led her and her husband to create BioVanta, using next-level ingredients backed by science and nature.

We come away feeling empowered, knowing we can vote with our wallets to support companies like BioVanta that are pioneering meaningful change. We’re grateful to continue learning from Dr. Latefi and are encouraged by BioVanta’s mission to transform over-the-counter medicine into safe, natural solutions that actually work.

What is The Meat Mafia Podcast?

The Meat Mafia Podcast is hosted by @MeatMafiaBrett and @MeatMafiaHarry.

We're two guys who walked away from the typical path to carve out something different. Based in Austin, we’re on a mission to figure out what it takes to live a fulfilled life in a world that often pushes us away from meaning.

We have conversations with people we believe can help us, diving deep into the pillars of health, wealth, and faith, as the cornerstones of our mission.

Whether it's challenging the modern food system, questioning conventional health advice, or building something from the ground up, we're here to explore the tough questions and share the lessons we’ve learned along the way.

If you're tired of the noise and ready to find meaning, tune in and join us!
