“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years.

What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

In this episode of Medsider Radio , we sat down for an engaging chat with Ahmed Zobi , founder and CEO of Syntr Health Technologies, which has developed an automated microfat processing system for use in aesthetics and plastic surgery. The FDA-cleared SyntrFuge device allows clinicians to harvest patients’ adipose tissue and then reinject it as processed microfat within minutes into the desired area, eliminating the use of fillers. Ahmed has a decade of experience in the medical device industry. He advises and mentors many startups, has been recognized as a Forbes Next 1000 Honoree, and is a guest lecturer at the USC Keck School of Medicine. Ahmed also serves as a board member at various organizations, including the Wound Healing Society and the UCI Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship. In this interview, Ahmed shares his ideas on the risks and rewards of entrepreneurship, how to operate in a lean fashion, why he puts regulatory clearance above all, and how he managed to be the youngest candidate to receive a phase 1 SBIR grant.
