Honestly? You would most likely die by consuming this much protein. Not only that... but you would never be able to go #2

The most protein recommend per day is 1.5 grams per pound of bodyweight. Unless you are a professional bodybuilder I would recomend 0.8 to 1 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight. So you may want to consume about 180 grams of protein per day.
