What are Macronutrients?
There are three different types of macronutrients that the body needs on a daily basis; protein, carbs, and fat. Below is a table of calories per gram and their primary function.
| Macronutrient | Calories per gram | Main Function |
|---|---|---|
| Protein | 4 cal/g | Muscle repair and growth |
| Carbohydrates | 4 cal/g | Main energy source |
| Fat | 9 cal/g | Hormone production and energy storage |
Being aware of the calories and macronutrient breakdown of the food you eat is essential for a well-balanced and healthy diet.

For example, if you workout regularly, you need a certain amount of calories and macros that are different than if you lead a sedentary lifestyle.
