Low Protein Intake Linked to 32% Higher Frailty Risk in Older Women, Study Suggests A prospective cohort study by Beasley et al. (2010) investigated the relationship between protein intake and incident frailty in 24,417 women aged 65 years or older over a three-year period. The study found that women consuming the highest amounts of protein (1.2 g/kg/day) had a 32% lower risk of developing frailty compared to those with the lowest protein intake (0.8 g/kg/day). The findings suggest a dose-response relationship, with higher protein intakes being protective against frailty in older women.

On a high calorie vegan diet (>=3000 calories), I find it difficult to get my protein even down to 1.2 g/kg. It's usually around 1.6 g/kg, about 13 to 14% of my calories. I like my bean and grains. It's very difficult to eat 3,000 calories without them. If I eat less than 3,000 calories, I start losing weight. Those beans and grains also come with a lot of fiber, so I'm getting around 125 grams/day of fiber.

of course not. testosterone is a hormone, which is also made of protein. apart from water and fat, there are practically no cells without protein. 3% based on a 2000 kcal diet is 60 kcal, or 15g of protein, which is ridiculously low. the absolute minimum is 0.8g/kg or 0.36g/lb, which is about 60g, not 60 kcal, of protein per day for an average 75 kg person. there are more recent studies that consider even these amounts to be too low.
