Is it true that eating only protein causes protein poisoning, known as rabbit starvation, because the body cannot process excess amino acids?
Unclear. One reference work confirms that protein poisoning, or rabbit starvation, occurs when a person survives on lean animals without sufficient fats or carbohydrates, and a nutrition overview lists protein excess as a nutritional problem. Neither source addresses the claim's stated mechanism that the body cannot process excess amino acids.
