Is Non Intake Of Proteins By A Teenager Harmful?

I have a 13 year old grandson who is having many headaches and seems to get sick with many days missed from school. He only eats carbs, soft drinks and will not eat any protein. What are his dangers with this kind of diet. His Mother is worried about his health.
