Macros are short for macronutrients, which are carbs, fat, and protein. This is different from micronutrients, which are vitamins and minerals.
Carbs are fiber, starches, and sugars. Digestible carbs break down into sugar (or glucose) in your body, raising blood sugar and affecting insulin levels.
Fats are a source of energy and provide essential fatty acids that our body and brain need.
How many macros should I eat?
I recommend eating 70% fat, 10% carbs, and 20% protein. This is just a little bit different than the traditional keto diet.
