I personally don't think we will perish without protein, I do better on protein, but don't think I will perish if I don't eat it.


The only way a "zero" carb diet would be sustainable is with adequate protein. On zero carbs, without a source of animal protein, I'm not sure how a 100% fat diet would work, since I assume the fruits and veggies aren't a preferred option on "zero" carb.
