Basically, macronutrients are what food is made of - protein, carbs, and fats. They’re not another fad diet like Keto or Weight Watchers, and they’re different from calories. Most people think they’re eating healthy, but don’t actually know what their breakdown looks like. This step is sooo important, and you can’t skip it if you want to see long-term results with your health!This series is all about education that leads to actual implementation, so you can start seeing the body recomp results you’ve been chasing.
