What Are Calories?

Calories represent energy units found in food. Understanding your daily calorie intake helps you plan balanced meals that support your lifestyle and routine activities.

What Are Macronutrients?

Macronutrients include protein, fats, and carbohydrates. Each plays a role in daily nutrition, and awareness of their balance can help you structure meals more mindfully.

Protein

Protein is found in foods like meat, fish, eggs, and legumes. It's commonly considered when planning balanced meals and supporting an active lifestyle.

Fats

Fats are present in oils, nuts, seeds, and dairy. They contribute to energy intake and are part of a complete nutrition approach.

Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are found in grains, fruits, and vegetables. They provide energy for daily activities and physical routines.

Balanced Structure

A balanced meal typically combines all three macronutrients in portions suited to individual needs, activity levels, and daily routines.
