Death by protein shake? Female bodybuilder dead

A young mother and professional bodybuilder is dead, and protein supplements popular with athletes are partially to blame.

The West Australian reports that protein supplements contributed to the June death of  Meegan Hefford, a 25-year-old mom of two in Mandurah in Perth, West Australia.

Hefford was training for an upcoming competition when she was found unconscious in her apartment. Four days later she was declared brain dead.
