Stephenson did this experiment to prove people wrong, who said that man cannot live by eating meat alone. But unfortunately, during both experiments, he fell ill very quickly. The reason was clear. Stephenson was eating lean protein , hence he got “protein poisoning”. That is, it became difficult due to taking more protein.
