Monthly Feature: Nutrition (The ABCs of macronutrients)

Macronutrients (macros) in our diet mean protein, carbohydrates and fats. The ABCs are as follows:

• A – Adequate protein
• B – Balanced fats
• C – Controlled carbs

Protein can either be meat (complete) or plant-based (incomplete).

Fats include unsaturated (healthy), saturated and trans-fat (unhealthiest).

Carbohydrates are either unprocessed (healthy) such as fibre and natural sugars, occurring in fruits and vegetables or, processed (unhealthy) occurring in pastries, cakes, breads, etc.

Each meal must comprise of all three macros, whether it is for fat loss, muscle gain or weight maintenance.
