Many of the available medicines for respiratory problems only treat the symptoms, but hardly the root cause.  Additionally, after many decades of use, some of these medications have been proven to include ineffective ingredients. This prompted Dr. Nazlie Latefi, the founder of Applied Biological Laboratories and the brain behind Biovanta, to seek an innovative approach to target the underlying issue: inflammation. In this episode, she discusses the differences between acute and chronic inflammationthe startling effects of commonly used sore throat productsthe unexpected benefits of using ingredients found in nature, including the role of aspirin and other COX inhibitors in managing respiratory issues.With their research-backed all-natural product, the impact of Biovanta seems nothing short of revolutionary as it addresses inflammation itself as well as repair after the inflammation. With their goal to find effective treatment for pandemics, Applied Biological Laboratories has taken a significant leap forward to provide better treatments for respiratory problems.Get to know our guestDr. Nazlie Latefi founded Applied Biological Laboratories, a company focused on researching, creating, and distributing natural drugs to effectively treat respiratory conditions and their associated symptoms. “Unfortunately, a lot of the medicines that we take are not designed to deal with the underlying issue. So, they kind of perpetuate the whole thing. I mean, it's just like a band-aid solution, like for example allergies. That's a state of chronic inflammation and steroids is definitely not the answer to that because although it's very commonly prescribed, it actually can make people more susceptible to getting respiratory infections. And you're basically shutting off all the inflammation with the steroids and blunting it so that now your initial responses are completely dulled out.” - Dr. Nazlie LatefiConnect with herWebsite: https://biovanta.com/Order with the discount code meatmafia10 to get 10% off your order.More contacts:https://www.facebook.com/BiovantaOTC/https://www.instagram.com/biovantaotc/https://appliedbioinc.com/https://lin Chances are, you wouldn't be listening to this podcast if you didn't need to change your life and get healthier.
