How Many Carbs and Fats Should You Eat?

The marketing trends make this question seem very complicated.

The answer is very simple.

The amount and ratio of carbs to fat that you eat in a day do not matter as long as they do not make you surpass your daily calories.

Carbs don't make you fat.

Fats don't make you fat.

Excess calories make you fat.

Calories are the king of physical change. You need to apply and stick to your daily caloric total.

If you're someone who likes fatty foods you'll have to eat fewer carbs to hit your calories.

If you're someone who loves carbs you'll have to eat fewer fats to hit your calories.

Changing your body is not as complicated as the internet wants you to think it is.
