It depends on what is low portein and the digest able lysine to formulate to and using the Ideal Protein method. Using a soy + corn as the major ingredient with a dig Lys of 1.28 plus a glycine + define set to crude protein of 22 % and using metionibe, lysine, theorinre , arginine , valinr, and isoleucine the crude protein will decrease to 20 % which is not low protein.
