What it means

4
How your macros are calculated
Daily calories are calculated with the Mifflin-St Jeor formula adjusted for your activity level.
Protein is calculated from body weight, carbs follow the selected keto style, and fat fills the remaining calories.
Focus on 2-3 week trends, not one day: scale weight can shift from water and sodium.
Change one variable at a time (calories or carbs) to understand what drives the result.

Practical tips

Keep protein intake stable to preserve lean mass.
Split carbs into 2-3 meals to stay within your limit more easily.
Plan meals 1-2 days ahead to stay closer to your macros.
Add water and electrolytes to ease keto adaptation symptoms.
Recalculate macros after a 3-5 kg body weight change.

FAQ

6

Short answers to common questions about calculations and interpretation.

Why are carbs so low?

Keto relies on carb restriction to maintain ketosis.

Can I raise protein?

Yes, but very high protein can reduce ketones in some people.

What matters more: percentages or grams?

For daily execution, grams are usually more practical and easier to track.

When should I update my macro targets?

After noticeable changes in body weight, activity, or primary goal.

Can I change carbs manually?

In the current calculator, carbs are set automatically based on the selected keto style. If you want to compare different carb targets, switch between styles and review the result.

Why is fat so high?

On keto, fat covers most of the remaining calories after protein and carbs are set. That is why fat usually ends up much higher than in standard eating plans.
