Macronutrients

Macronutrients are the essential nutrients required for the body to function properly, including proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Each of these elements has unique functions, providing energy, building and repairing tissues, and regulating metabolic processes. Macronutrients in the diet play a fundamental role in body shape and overall health. The right balance of proteins, fats and carbohydrates can improve metabolism, mood and training efficiency.

Macronutrients on reduction should be tailored to the individual, supporting fat burning while maintaining muscle mass. It is usually recommended to increase the amount of protein and adjust the amount of carbohydrates and fats. Calculating the appropriate proportions of macronutrients in the diet can start with determination of calorific needs based on age, gender, weight, height and physical activity. Calories are then broken down into proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
