A low-protein diet would include foods such as vegetables, starches such as bread, cereals, and pasta. For even less protein the best food would be fruits, fats and sugars. Foods to avoid would be any animal byproduct such as meats, eggs, fish, poultry, milk, yogurt, cheese, and even peanut butter.
