About Macro Ratio Calculator

Macronutrients — protein, carbohydrates, and fat — are the building blocks of every diet. Getting the right balance of these three nutrients is essential for reaching your health and fitness goals, whether that means losing fat, building muscle, improving athletic performance, or simply eating a more balanced diet. Our free Macro Ratio Calculator takes the guesswork out of nutrition planning by providing personalized macro targets in grams and percentages.

The calculator factors in your age, gender, weight, height, activity level, and specific goal to determine your daily calorie needs. It then distributes those calories across protein, carbohydrates, and fat using evidence-based ratios tailored to your objective. Whether you follow a balanced diet, a high-protein approach, or a low-carb plan, the calculator adjusts to fit your preferred eating style.

How to Use

Making the Most of Your Macros

Once you have your targets, focus on food quality within each macro category. For protein, lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, and legumes are excellent choices. For carbohydrates, prioritize whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fiber-rich sources. For fats, emphasize unsaturated sources like olive oil, nuts, avocados, and fatty fish. Tracking your intake for at least two weeks helps build awareness and makes it easier to hit your targets consistently over time.
