>Of all the components that stimulate mTOR, amino acids are the most potent stimulators. Hence, eating large amounts of protein is also one of the quickest ways to shut down autophagy, which prevents your body from effectively cleaning out debris and damaged cells. According to Rosedale, even if you do everything else right to keep glucose and insulin low, your mTOR would still be elevated if you eat too much protein.
>He also notes that virtually all cancers are associated with mTOR activation, so activating mTOR is something you'll definitely want to avoid. This is why I recommend limiting protein to about 40 to 70 grams per day, depending on your lean body mass.

EVERYTHING causes cancer. No joke.

What you should be asking is, how much does it cause cancer.
pic definitely related

i've tried to craft a low protein diet before. Do you know how fucking hard it is while also getting adequate caloric intake, i.e. 2500 for a grown male? It's fucking hard.

To elaborate on this: the kind of low-protein staple foods you'd need to be eating to hit such a low protein intake would leave you deficient in 1 or more amino acids at the 70g mark.
