You shouldn't drink them unless you like them, and it doesn't matter how old you are. -- Right. Anyone with a normal, developed digestive system (aka, not breastfeeding infants) can safely consume a protein shake. There's no reason to though. A normal diet will provide more than enough protein, even for body building. Excess protein is just exess calories. Under a diet which may make protein consumption difficult, such as a vegan diet, a soy protein shake may be of benefit in reaching one's daily protein needs.

It is recommended to wait until adolescence (around 16-18 years old) before incorporating protein shakes into your diet, as teenagers can usually obtain sufficient protein from whole foods. Consulting with a healthcare provider or registered dietitian is advisable to determine individual nutritional needs and ensure protein supplements are appropriate for someone's age and health status.
