“Muscle Changes Everything”: JJ Virgin Joins YOLKED® to Champion Muscle Health at Every Stage of Life

“Muscle Changes Everything”: JJ Virgin Joins YOLKED® to Champion Muscle Health at Every Stage of Life

Muscle isn’t just for athletes. It’s a key driver of strength, metabolism, recovery, and healthy aging. At YOLKED®, we focus on muscle as a central health marker—and now, we’re expanding that message with a new strategic partner: JJ Virgin.

JJ Virgin—triple-board certified nutritionist, four-time New York Times bestselling author, and respected health entrepreneur—has joined forces with MYOS CORP, makers of YOLKED and MYOS MD, to help bring Fortetropin® to a wider audience.

Why JJ Virgin Chose Fortetropin

With over 40 years of experience in resistance training and optimal health, JJ understands how rare it is to see muscle gains without significant changes to diet or training. That’s exactly why Fortetropin stood out.

“It’s incredibly rare for me to see any measurable gains in lean muscle without changing my diet or training. But after discovering 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.”

Muscle-First Aging: A Shared Mission

JJ’s belief that "Muscle Changes Everything" reflects what we’ve been saying all along at YOLKED: building and maintaining muscle is one of the most impactful things you can do for your long-term health.

As she puts it:

“With the rising concerns around sarcopenia and growing awareness of the vital role skeletal muscle plays in healthy aging, I’m excited to partner with MYOS to help more people tap into this groundbreaking innovation in muscle health.”

What This Partnership Means

As part of this collaboration, JJ will serve as a brand ambassador for YOLKED®. You’ll see her leading:

  • Educational campaigns and science-backed resources on muscle health
  • Webinars, live events, and social media initiatives
  • Ongoing conversations with both consumers and healthcare providers

What Makes Fortetropin Different?

Fortetropin® is a proprietary ingredient derived from fertilized egg yolk, developed through a patented process that retains its full biological activity. It’s been shown to:

  • Increase the rate of muscle protein synthesis
  • Support muscle recovery and lean mass development
  • Reduce muscle loss during periods of disuse or aging

It’s used in every serving of YOLKED®, trusted by athletes, coaches, and now—JJ Virgin.
