Split your calories into macros

Macronutrients are the protein, carbohydrate and fat that make up your calories. Enter your daily calorie total and choose a split, such as balanced, low carb, high protein or keto, to see the grams of each macro to aim for. The maths uses 4 calories per gram of protein and carbs and 9 per gram of fat. Pair it with the calorie calculator to set your target first. This is general guidance, not a meal plan.

Why grams, not just percentages

Knowing the actual grams of protein, carbs and fat makes a split far easier to follow when reading food labels.

Frequently asked questions

How many calories per gram?

Protein and carbohydrate each provide 4 calories per gram, while fat provides 9 calories per gram. The tool uses these to convert percentages into grams.

Which split should I choose?

Balanced suits most people. Low carb and keto cut carbs for fat, while high protein favours muscle goals. Personal preference and any medical guidance matter most.
