MACROS 🤔

Hey there! So a lot of you have been reaching out and asking us how to determine calories and how to track macros.

WHAT ARE MACROS?

Macro short for macronutrient is a nutrient that is required in large quantities from the diet. There are three macros that make up calories. Carbohydrate, Fats, and Proteins. Micronutrients are nutrients required in smaller amounts, such as vitamins and minerals.

HOW DO YOU ANALYZE THE MACROS?

To analyze our meals macros we analyze and measure the nutritional information of all the ingredients we use. Each gram of carbs yields 4 calories. Each gram of protein yields 4 calories. Each gram of fats yields 9 calories.

SHOULD I BE TRACKING MY MACROS?

If you are looking to simply be a healthy individual then you just need to focus on eating good whole foods like the ones found on our delicious menu. If you're looking to focus on losing body fat or increasing muscle mass then we do recommend tracking your macros. A program without the right nutrition won't go very far.
