Key Points Discussed:
What are Macros?
- Macros, short for macronutrients, are the nutrients your body needs in large amounts: proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
- Understanding each macronutrient and its role is essential for balanced nutrition and effective weight management.
Why Focus on Macros?
- After 40, stress and insulin resistance can slow down your metabolism, making it harder to lose weight.
- A proper macro balance, with an emphasis on more protein and fluctuating carbs, can help combat these issues.
- By focusing on the right macro ratios, you can improve your metabolism, manage stress load, and reduce insulin resistance.
How to Balance Macros?
- Start by understanding your body’s needs and calculating the right proportions of proteins, fats, and carbs.
- Incorporate more protein to support muscle maintenance and increase satiety.
- Adjust your carb intake based on your activity level and metabolic response.
- Regular physical activity is crucial for effectively utilizing the energy from your balanced macros.
