I'm going to do water-fasting with 50g 100% protein a day. How will I die? Kidney stones?

>>76781871Depends on how long you do it. If you supplement in some essential fats you'd be fine, except that isnt enough protein to support anyone.
>>76781914the adult Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) for protein is ~0.66 g/kg/day. So 50 g/day meets or exceeds the EAR for anyone ≲ 75.8 kg (50÷0.66)50g is the good boy amount of protein globallyTypical adult EAR/AR multipliersWHO/FAO/UNU: 0.66 g/kg/d (EAR/AR); 0.83 g/kg/d “safe/PRI”. EU (EFSA): 0.66 g/kg/d (AR); 0.83 g/kg/d (PRI). US/Canada (IOM/DRI): 0.66 g/kg/d (EAR); 0.80 g/kg/d (RDA).Australia/New Zealand (NRVs): EAR ≈ 0.68 g/kg/d (men), 0.60 g/kg/d (women); RDIs 0.84/0.75.
