Discussion: We have mistakenly gotten used to thinking we need a large amount of protein. What happens to the excess animal protein we consume?

For those who quit smoking and alcohol, I recommend sharply reducing the consumption of meat, poultry, and cow's milk products. These are particularly inflammatory and may exacerbate the side effects of detoxification.

An adult needs about one gram per kg of weight. In practice in the modern world (in developed countries), consuming proteins (mainly from animals) is 3 to 4 times the body's needs for tissue regeneration. The surplus is intended to produce energy (calories). Each protein turns to ammonia (NH3), later in the liver, to uric acid, urinated, and eliminated by the kidneys through the urine. But it is a process that puts a lot of strain on the liver and kidneys and the entire physiological system that is already overloaded due to the industrialized & processed diet.
