It's interesting they argue that protein in excess is bad.. If anything the consensus seems to be among the 'health influencers' (if there can even be one on this topic) is that protein is good and you need more than the RDA if you want to maintain/build muscle. The most effective diet I've tried is "Rabbit Starvation". Basically the idea is that if you are in the wilderness, even if you can trap endless rabbits and squirrels - no amount will sustain you, our bodies can't turn enough of it into energy. It's one of the few cases where a calorie is provably not a calorie. You can leverage this by just making lean protein and vegetables most if not all of your diet. 100% is definitely not a long term diet but it's a knob you can play with.
