Ages ago, I had a colleague who was deeply into hacking of his mTOR pathway. Among other things, this included a permanent calorie deficit and removal of all protein from his diet.

I don't know if he's still alive. Maybe it was working a bit too well, I recall he looked like an extremely tall 13 year old with anorexia.

You can't synthesize some of the amino acids. I wouldn't think such a diet is survivable.

I guess the raw vegetables contain just enough protein to survive
