The Best-Selling Author and Wellness Icon Partners with MYOS to Promote Fortetropin®— the Company's Proprietary Nutritional Ingredient That Supports Muscle Growth and Retention Across Various Stages of Life
CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J., June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MYOS CORP, a leader in muscle health and wellness innovation, announced today a strategic partnership with renowned health expert, author, and entrepreneur JJ Virgin.
JJ Virgin will serve as a key ambassador for MYOS CORP's Fortetropin®-based human supplement brands, YOLKED® and MYOS MD®, helping to educate consumers, healthcare providers, and the broader wellness community about the importance of muscle health and the unique benefits of Fortetropin.
Fortetropin is a proprietary ingredient derived from fertilized egg yolk that has been shown to increase the rate of muscle protein synthesis, reduce muscle loss, and support healthy aging and recovery.
Through this partnership, JJ Virgin will leverage her influential platform to help amplify the critical message that muscle health is foundational to overall health, particularly as individuals age or undergo periods of disuse or recovery.
"As someone who's been deeply committed to resistance training and optimal health for over 40 years, it's incredibly rare for me to see any measurable gains in lean muscle without changing my diet or training. But after discovering MYOS Fortetropin through a trusted nutritionist and using it myself, I gained 2.5 pounds of fat-free mass in just two months—with no other changes. That's extraordinary," Virgin said of her personal experience with Fortetropin.
"With the rising concerns around sarcopenia and growing awareness of the vital role skeletal muscle plays in healthy aging, I'm thrilled to partner with MYOS to help more people tap into this groundbreaking innovation in muscle health," she said of the partnership.
JJ Virgin, a triple-board certified nutritionist and four-time New York Times bestselling author, has dedicated her career to advancing functional nutrition, fitness, and healthy aging. She brings nearly four decades of experience to this collaboration, along with a strong commitment to science-backed, natural approaches to health.
"At MYOS, we believe in the power of muscle health to transform lives," said Joe Mannello, CEO of MYOS CORP. "Partnering with JJ Virgin, whose expertise and philosophy so closely align with our mission, marks a major step forward in bringing the benefits of Fortetropin to a wider audience."
The partnership will include co-branded educational content, live events, webinars, social media initiatives, and appearances across JJ Virgin's platform and media channels.
