    Is there some basic guideline for determining the macros, like amount of protein in g, fat and carbs? I’ve never been able to figure out based on self experimentation.

  2. Team FPS says

    There needs to be personalization, but starter numbers look something like this:

    Protein 80-120g
    Carbohydrate 150-250g
    Fat 40-70g

    The above does not provide context about food selection, food quality, meal frequency, and blood sugar regulation.
