The internet says you need huge amounts of protein every day. You do need protein to keep your muscles strong as you age. But you have to get it safely. We break down what protein powders do to your kidneys and what to buy instead.\nWe look at what is hiding on nutrition labels. You will learn why collagen and spinach powders can raise oxalate levels in your body. We share simple swaps, like choosing vanilla over chocolate and using pea or coconut milk instead of nut milks. We also explain why drinks with very high calcium should be split into two servings so your body can absorb them.\nSkipping meals for a protein shake is not a lasting way to lose weight.
