JYM Supplement Science combines real science with best-in-class ingredients and precise doses to deliver unreal results. Pro JYM is my exclusive protein blend designed to help you build muscle, recover faster and train stronger. Whether you want to boost strength, add size or get shredded, Pro JYM is for you. It’s a powerful blend of proteins that add up to pure muscle fuel.
Grow Like a Pro
Each scoop of Pro JYM delivers 24 grams of pure, quality protein. It’s not “spiked” with single amino acids to artificially increase the protein content or made with cheap and inferior whey protein concentrate or caseinates. To make Pro JYM, I selected only the highest-quality whey protein isolate, micellar casein, milk protein isolate and egg white protein (egg albumen).
The 24 grams of protein in each scoop of Pro JYM contain the following:
Whey protein isolate: 7.5 g
Micellar casein: 7 g
Egg albumen: 2.5g
Milk protein isolate: 7 g (5.5 g casein, 1.5 g whey)
Since milk protein isolate is 20 percent whey protein and 80 percent micellar casein, the 24 grams of protein in Pro JYM are really broken down into three main categories:
Whey protein: 9 grams (40%)
Miceller casein: 12.5 grams (50%)
Egg white protein: 2.5 grams (10%)
A Blend Is Best
While a high-quality protein powder should be at the top of everyone’s supplement shopping list, don’t make the common mistake of buying a pure whey protein powder right off the bat. Yes, whey protein is a critical staple for muscle growth, but to truly maximize growth, you need more than just whey. You need a precise blend of performance proteins.
Whey is a very fast-digesting protein. The rapid rate of digestion is one of whey’s benefits, but on its own, this quality can actually be a downfall. Because whey digests so fast, it quickly boosts muscle protein synthesis (MPS). However, it only boosts MPS for a short amount of time.
Research now shows that when you add medium-digesting and slow-digesting proteins to whey, muscle protein synthesis remains elevated for longer than when using whey alone. Since muscle protein synthesis leads to muscle growth, elevating muscle protein synthesis for longer can have a significant impact on your overall gains.
In fact, research confirms that people who add slow-digesting casein protein to a whey protein shake around their workouts enjoy greater muscle growth over time than people taking whey alone. This research is the very reason I recommend taking a blend of fast-digesting whey protein, medium-digesting egg protein and slow-digesting micellar casein.
Say No to Protein Spiking!
Many supplement manufacturers cut corners on their protein powders because high-quality protein is very expensive to make. They often use a dirty trick called “nitrogen spiking.” Nitrogen spiking, also called “amino spiking” or “protein spiking,” is a way to manipulate the test used to measure the protein content of protein powders.
The current method used to assess the amount of protein in a protein powder involves measuring the nitrogen content, which is then converted into protein amount. Nitrogen is used because protein is made of amino acids strung together in a chain, much like a pearl necklace, and every amino acid contains nitrogen. If manufacturers add loose amino acids to a powder, they can fool the test and deliver less pure protein than their labels claim.
Many people think that extra amino acids in their protein powder are beneficial. The major problem, however, is that certain amino acids are not added to make the protein powder more effective. Instead, they’re simply added for their nitrogen. Most single amino acids, such as taurine and glycine, are much cheaper than whey protein, casein protein, milk protein or egg protein. Even highly beneficial amino acids like BCAAs and glutamine are cheaper than protein powder. So, by adding a bunch of cheaper amino acids to their protein powders, supplement companies can boost their nitrogen content, which technically means they boost the amount of protein per serving, at least according to the nitrogen test.
Because the added amino acids are not complete proteins, the protein content of a spiked protein powder is not truly what a nitrogen test claims it is. For example, a whey protein powder may claim to contain 20 grams of protein per scoop. However, if the manufacturer added 5 grams of glycine per serving, then you are only getting 15 grams of actual whey protein and 5 grams of glycine, which would read as 20 grams of protein per serving.
An even bigger problem arises when proteins are spiked with amino acids that aren’t used as building blocks to form proteins in the body. Taurine is once such amino acid. Taurine helps with energy production, so you might first be excited to see a high quantity of it in your protein. However, if 5 grams of taurine has been added to your protein powder that claims to contain 20 grams of protein per serving, you are only getting 15 grams of real protein and 5 grams of taurine. So the extra taurine comes at the expense of total protein.
If your favorite protein powder lists BCAAs, glutamine, beta-alanine, betaine (trimethylglycine), or creatine, you might think it’s a great product because of the additional nutrients. Yes, your protein contains these performance nutrients, but you may be getting them at the expense of the protein, not in addition to the protein. All those ingredients are nitrogen-containing compounds that count towards the total protein amount listed on the label. You might be getting up to 10 grams less protein per serving than listed on the label.
The rampant use of nitrogen spiking is the main reason why I list the precise amount of each protein in every 24 gram serving of Pro JYM. Whey protein isolate makes up 7.5 grams, micellar casein makes up 7 grams, and milk protein isolate makes up 7 grams, and the remaining 2.5 grams comes from egg white protein (egg albumen). That totals 24 grams from complete proteins with no added amino acids or filler nutrients.
The Power of Pro
As with every other supplement in the JYM line, I want you to know the exact ingredients and doses in Pro JYM. I want you to see that it contains nothing but a pure blend of high-quality proteins in the exact amounts needed to maximize growth, recovery and repair. In short, I want you to grow like a pro.
Prepare to experience the power of real science, real ingredients and unreal results.

JYM Supplement Science is a revolutionary supplement company founded by me, Dr. Jim Stoppani. What makes JYM so unique and revolutionary is the science and quality that go into each and every single supplement, as well as the fact that I stand behind every single product that I formulate and am there to personally answer any questions that you may have.
Take a look at some of the supplements you have in your kitchen. Do you know who formulated that product? Do you know what their background is? Do they have any real expertise in the area of sports nutrition? Do they have your best interest in mind when they formulated that product? And if you did have a question about the product do you know who is there to answer you?
Many of your favorite supplements are developed by people with very little real expertise in sports nutrition. Few of them actually use the products they develop or actually workout. Plus, you may be disturbed by the many recent reports of supplements being either laced with questionable ingredients or contaminated with harmful ingredients. Why take the risk of using products from companies that you really know little about who is beyond the products?
logoWith JYM, you can rest assured that every product was created by a person with one of the most impressive resumes in the world of sports nutrition and exercise science and a person who has nothing but your best interest in mind. To read more about my background, click on the link below. Every ingredient I use is proven in the laboratory and the gym to be effective and safe. After all, I am making these supplements for myself.
Take another look at a bottle of one of your favorite supplements. Does it mention who the expert is that will answer your questions if you should have any regarding the ingredients in that product, or how to take it most effectively with other products and with your current training program and diet? Chances are you will need to call a 1-800 number to talk to some random customer service person who may or may not even have a high school education and likely knows less about the science behind the product than you do. Or you will be directed to email a customer service rep with the same background. Do you really want to trust that person’s advice? You see, most supplement companies hide behind that bottle you are holding in your hands with no one being accountable for the product or the results you may or may not get from it.
When you buy a JYM product, you know exactly who it is that is going to answer your questions. It’s me, Jim Stoppani, the same guy that has been there to answer your training, nutrition and supplement questions for over a decade. I am not hiding behind my bottles. I am proudly standing front and center and I encourage you to reach out to me on Twitter and Facebook so that I can help you better use my products with your current training and diet plans.
THAT is what JYM Supplement Science is. Isn’t THAT the way that ALL supplement companies should be run? No more hiding. No more lack of accountability. No more BS. JYM Supplement Science is here to provide you supplements that you can trust to be safe and effective.
