But what are Macros?

Macros are short for Macronutrients.

These are the larger amount of nutrients your body needs to function properly. These are:

Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are the body's primary energy source. They can be simple (sugars) or complex (starches and fibers).

Foods rich in carbs include bread, rice, pasta, fruits, and vegetables.

Fats

Fats while often misunderstood, fats are crucial for energy, hormone production, and nutrient absorption.

They can be saturated, unsaturated, or trans fats, with sources including oils, butter, avocados, nuts, and fatty fish.

Proteins are essential for building and repairing tissues. Proteins are made up of amino acids.

Good sources include meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and nuts.
