Founder Story
John Mai | Alex Nguyen
John Mai and Alex Nguyen are the co-founders and CEOs of Ascend Supplements™. Their journey began during a challenging period for John, who faced severe health issues including meningitis and norovirus on June 22, 2023. This life-threatening experience tested his limits, bringing severe sensitivity to light, digestive issues, and a deep struggle with depression.
During his recovery, John faced a significant loss of confidence and resorted to overindulging in food, leading to extreme weight gain. Determined to overcome these hurdles, he committed to intense training and discipline, which gradually restored his strength and confidence.
Throughout this journey, Alex Nguyen provided crucial support in John’s recovery in the gym. Together, they recognized the transformative impact of effective supplements and co-founded Ascend Supplements™ with a shared vision, of building a supportive community and helping everyone strive towards their best selves through self-discipline and hard work.
