| ..restricting protein will eventually lead to scavenging of muscle tissue to provide for basic cellular repair and maintenance, remember, millions of cells are being replaced all the time. Biggest problem here is that for some reason the body likes to take cardiac muscle.... Too much protein and not enough carbs on the other hand makes for a more complicated and dirty metabolism (read; your muscles hurt and you stink). Many authorities also believe that this is also really bad for your kidneys as extra protein is filtered out with the urine.
