What Are Macros?
Macros (short for macronutrients) are the three main nutrients your body needs in large amounts to function properly.
They are:
Protein – Helps build and repair muscles, organs, skin, and other body tissues.
Carbohydrates (Carbs) – Your body's main source of energy for daily activities and exercise.
Fats – Support hormone production, brain health, vitamin absorption, and provide long-lasting energy.
Think of it this way:
Calories tell you how much energy you're eating. Macros tell you where that energy comes from.
For example, if you eat a bowl of rice with chicken and vegetables:
🍗 Chicken provides protein
🍚 Rice provides carbohydrates
🥑 Avocado or cooking oil provides healthy fats
In simple terms, macros are the nutrients that make up the food you eat and provide your body with energy and the building blocks it needs to stay healthy.
