Macronutrient Ratios

Macronutrient ratios refer to the proportion of the three main nutrients—carbohydrates, proteins, and fats—that make up your diet. These ratios help tailor your eating plan to your health goals, such as weight loss, muscle gain, or energy needs. For example, a common ratio might be 50% carbs, 20% protein, and 30% fat. Adjusting these percentages influences how your body burns energy, builds muscle, or stores fat. Understanding these ratios enables better nutritional choices to support overall health, athletic performance, or specific dietary objectives.
