Macro Tracking

Ok, Macro in this case isn’t your environment.  It’s all about another way of looking at your nutrition.  It is all about your fats, carbs and protein.  These are the macronutrients.

No matter what lifestyle or diet you follow, knowing your macronutrients can assist you.  It a great way to monitor, and tweak your recipes and food you eat.  For example:

Possible percentages –

Keto: 70-60% fats, 5-10% carbs, 25-30% protein 

Vego, or Mediterranean: 40% fats, 30% carbs, 30% protein

Low Carb: 50% fats, 15% carbs, 35% protein

When designing your recipes, it’s great to track your Marcos. One easy way is with the MyFitnessPal app.  Why not try tracking your macros?

My challenge is doing a Vego Keto, shifting to more protein!  My examples are to do an egg with spinach or create Keto protein cookies.  Watch this space.

A great app
