In this episode of the LYF Performance Podcast, Pete interviews Modex founder Dave McHenry about how Modex works as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, & nitric oxide boosting formulation, and the decades of research that Modex was born from, and the exciting plans to further research this powerful, natural, compound for health and performance benefits.

I’ve been using Modex for 12months and have been feeling the fitness benefits during and post exercise, improving performance and recovery. The stress accumulates less, it’s like leapfrogging to a time when you are fitter and healthier.

Dave Mchenry has a Bachelor in Food Science, and has a personal story as to why he launched Modex, and it is clear he is passionate about it.

We chat about his story and all these benefits and many more in the great interview.
