Macronutrients are nutrients that your body requires to function properly.

Keeping track of your macronutrients can be very similar to tracking calories.
However when tracking macronutrients it’s important to focus on where exactly your calories are coming from.
Tracking Macronutrients For Weight Loss?
If you are on the path to lose weight then you might be surprised to find out that how much you eat on a daily basis matters far more than your macronutrient ratio for the day.
Research shows that you can actually burn fat and lose weight regardless of your macronutrient ratio.
When studied, different macronutrient ratios do not have a significant impact on how much weight you lose in the long run.
Why You Shouldn’t Just Focus On Calories…
Let’s start from the beginning- what is an actual calorie???
A calorie measures the specific amount of energy a particular food or beverage has.
One calories contains 4.2 joules of energy (no matter if the calorie is coming from a fat, carb, or protein).
With this logic you might think that all calories are created equal?

Food and it’s specific macronutrient composition can have a lot to do with how full you feel after eating.
That said, 100 calories from a bowl of broccoli will have you feeling far more saitiated than 100 calories from a doughnut.
Therefore you should focus on diet quality rather than just calories alone.
The BEST Macronutrient for Weight Loss Is…
I think it’s pretty obvious by now:
PROTEIN!
You may have seen the popular study that increasing protein intake by 15-30% burned up to 441 more calories per day in participants without any additional activity?
Protein takes more energy for your body to break down… so it’s a great “no effort” way to lose weight passively.
