Interesting study........more protein, more death, if you are low on zinc.

"These results show that the number of zinc-deficient rats which survive decreases as protein intake increases throughout the feeding period, that the influence of protein intake is greater than that of body weight in early stages, and that the zinc requirements of rats rise with the increase in protein intake." - PMID: 16521703
