The protein powder favoured by body builders and athletes could in fact hold the key to a long and healthy life scientists now believe. A recent discovery as shown that consuming the amino acids found in protein shakes can in fact lengthen your life span by up to 12%. That’s a whopping nine years for the average UK male.
How is this possible?
