There is some evidence that low methionine can achieve health miracles.
Gerson’s diet is low in methionine. McDougall and Kempner have helped cure people of many intractable diseases with a rice diet or a “plant based diet.”
A diet could be put together with fruit, rice, masa harina, maybe potatoes if you tolerate them, well cooked veggies.
The problem is protein. I wouldn’t be eating beans or lentils, and that seems to be the primary plant protein source.
Milk has a lot of methionine, but collagen does not. So collagen, if tolerated, could be a good protein source.
I’m thinking butter is okay.
breakfast of masa harina, with butter, salt and pepper
lunch of white rice and veggies
dinner potatoes and sauce, well cooked veggies
coffee with collagen
Seems to be pretty bare bones…
