Uh, I'm not a scientist or anything but go drink like 2-3 protein shakes, with like 100 gs of protein, you'll shit like mad within an hour.
Anyway protein != energy. Protein carries your hormones to your muscles to rebuild them.
(at least from what I've gathered)
Also I don't know if you've heard this before but a lot of people say that the body can take (a number usually around 30gs) of protein at a time, and anymore is wasted (you are disposing of it). You can't "waste" carbs/fats because the body stores those. You can waste protein because it is not stored.
