Understanding Your Keto Macros:

The ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat, and moderate-protein diet. This calculator aims to help you find your personal macronutrient (macros) targets for weight loss while staying in ketosis. We typically recommend:

• **Net Carbs:** < 20-50g per day (to induce ketosis)
• **Protein:** 0.6-0.8g per pound of lean body mass (to preserve muscle)
• **Fats:** The rest of your calories (to reach your energy needs and satiety)

This calculator uses the **Mifflin-St Jeor Equation** for BMR, adjusts for activity, and then applies a calorie deficit for weight loss, distributing calories according to typical ketogenic ratios.
