MYOS Announces Distribution Agreement with BodyLogicMD, a Leading Nationwide Network of Anti-Aging Medical Practices
Advanced Nutrition Product Co-Developed with BodyLogicMD to Address Muscle Health
CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J., May 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- MYOS RENS Technology Inc. ("MYOS" or "the Company") (NASDAQ: MYOS), a bionutrition company and the owner of Fortetropin®, a proprietary bioactive composition made from fertilized egg yolk that helps build lean muscle, announced today that it has entered into a distribution agreement with BodyLogicMD, a leading physician-owned network of anti-aging medical practices located throughout the United States.
MYOS and BodyLogicMD have developed a private-label, Fortetropin-based nutrition product, BodyLogicMD Muscle Formula, that will be distributed across BodyLogicMD's nationwide network of anti-aging medical practices.
Headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, BodyLogicMD's network is comprised of nearly 65 affiliated anti-aging medical practitioners in more than 45 franchise practices spread across 28 states. BodyLogicMD is a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) and requires all of its network physicians to be trained and certified through the A4M Fellowship in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.
"We are absolutely delighted to be partnering with BodyLogicMD to distribute BodyLogicMD Muscle Formula. MYOS has worked with a range of health care professionals to formulate products that address their specific client's needs with our clinically proven muscle building ingredient, Fortetropin. The BodyLogicMD network is a premier nationwide network for anti-aging medicine and hormone replacement therapy," stated Joseph Mannello, CEO of MYOS.
"We believe that many patients visiting anti-aging physicians can benefit from the Fortetropin-based product, BodyLogicMD Muscle Formula. Extensive research at leading academic institutes has shown that muscle mass and longevity are correlated. Fortetropin helps alleviate age-related muscle loss," added Mr. Mannello.
"We are very excited about working with MYOS to bring BodyLogicMD Muscle Formula to market. We are truly impressed with the quality and degree of preclinical and human clinical research that has been conducted on Fortetropin. Very few nutrition products have been studied to this degree. It has become clear in recent years that muscle health is an area of medicine that is underappreciated. Addressing muscle health through a combination of diet and exercise can help patients improve their quality of life and longevity. We look forward to a highly fruitful and successful partnership with MYOS," commented Jennifer Landa, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of BodyLogicMD.
On March 11, 2020, Professor William Evans, University of California, Berkeley presented results from a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trial that examined the impact of Fortetropin on the rate of muscle protein synthesis in older men and women (60-75 years of age) at the International Conference on Frailty & Sarcopenia Research in Toulouse, France (https://frailty-sarcopenia.com/). The results indicated that subjects who consumed Fortetropin on a daily basis experienced an increased rate of muscle protein synthesis of approximately 15% when compared with subjects who were given a macronutrient-matched placebo.
