In this short YouTube monologue, JJ Virgin shares her enthusiasm for the nutrient Fortetropin, a fertilized egg yolk supplement. She recounts hearing about it at a medical conference, where research was presented showing an 18% increase in muscle protein synthesis over three weeks. Motivated, she conducted her own two‑month trial, measuring body composition with DEXA scans and reporting a gain of 2.5 lb of fat‑free mass. Convinced of its benefits, she now takes Fortetropin daily and promotes it as an easy, tasty way to boost muscle growth and retention, suggesting it can be mixed into shakes, yogurt, or taken straight.

Hey, JJ here to share with you my latest obsession. So I was speaking at a medical conference a couple months ago and I heard about this nutrient, Fortetropin, fertilized egg yolk. And I was like, huh? But they talked about the research showing that it increased muscle protein synthesis 18% in 3 weeks. So I had to try it out. I tested in the DEXA pre and post and did it for 2 months. And in 2 months, I put on 2.5 pounds of fat-free mass. Now clearly I'm sold and I've been been taking it ever since and telling everyone about it. Because who doesn't want the edge in being able to build and hold on to muscle? And the best thing of all, it tastes great. It's easy to put into your shakes, it's easy to put into your yogurt, or you know what, it's just easy to put into your mouth straight away. Mm, it's actually delicious. Have you tried it?
