Hey guys, during IF or even OMAD, should I maintain my TDEE !? And should I consider the Macros as well!? What about malnutrition!? Should I just take a multivitamin to subside it. I don't really know how to start...
Is a low carb, high protein diet truly effective? Every website seems to say something different.
A 5g serving of stone ground mustard is said to contain 5 calories, yet the nutrition label is rounded down to 0 carbs, 0 fat, 0 protein. What would the macros look like if the serving size were an entire...
I'm wondering if there's any books, research or studies on the topic of nutrition needs over different climates or seasonal weather patterns? It seems possible that our food needs would change over the seasons but I don't know where to start...
Why are there such a large difference on sardine packed in water between different brands? Some have more calories per 100g then others (by a lot)
I’ve noticed that macros don’t always add up to the calories listed on food labels. Is it more accurate to count macros to where they need to be and then calculate the calories based off them? Or instead, to get...
Example: I'm drinking a can coke right now. 39 grams of carbs, 0 grams of protein and fat. Nutritional label says the can is 140 calories. But 39x4=156. What am I missing? I've noticed this on quite a few packaged foods....
In meat that has an unknown quantity of added water (because the supermarkets want more profit), how can the protein macro be calculated? In my country in the EU, meat has on average 20g of protein per 100g of uncooked...
100g of UNCOOKED Soya chunks gives you; 52g of protein 33g of Carbs and 0.5g of Fat but my mum was making them and they were not made raw, so what could I do to track them, because I could not find the macros...
Is there any single food that has every micro, macro, vitamin & mineral our bodies need? Or even remotely close to covering them all:
Curious if anyone prefers one over the over or even happy to hear other suggestions. I suppose the bigger database, the better. Thanks!
Here's a nutrition label for 90/10 Ground Beef: >Calories: 200 > >Protein: 22g > >Fat: 11g > >Carbs: 0g 22g protein \* 4 calories = 88 kcals 11g fat \* 9 calories = 99kcals 88+99 = 187 Kcals 187...
I’m having a hard time getting my nutrition right. How do you calculate your macros in order to eat the right amount of each macro to stay healthy?
Using [https://fairlife.com/light-ice-cream/vanilla-ice-cream/](https://fairlife.com/light-ice-cream/vanilla-ice-cream/) as an example: (image: [https://imgur.com/a/ZySVC4x](https://imgur.com/a/ZySVC4x)) 7g fat = 63 calories 22g carbs - 0g fiber = 88 calories 9g protein = 36 calories Total: 187 calories, and it lists 150 ​ And should I base my food intake on the listed macros, or the...
I know you want to roughly intake 0.8 to 1.0 grams per pound of weight for protein. Ideally if you want to lose weight/body fat are you suppose to take in your ideal body weight amount of protein or your...
Does anybody know the macros of minced chuck beef because each site writes down different data
Not for weight loss. For the average male who trains regularly. Fasting when I feel like it. ​ Cheers.
Hi everyone, I’ve been quite ill this year, and wanted to prioritize recovery over other goals, but now I’m ready to start IF. I’m wondering if anyone has app suggestions that track calories, macros, and fasting. I’m ok...
Say I pressure boil a chicken carcass in water for an hour or so. The bones at this point crumble easy in my fingers, and the majority of the fat and collagen has rendered out. If I get all the bones...
I’ve noticed that macros don’t always add up to the calories listed on food labels. Is it more accurate to count macros to where they need to be and then calculate the calories based off them? Or instead, to get...
Like, isn't macronutrients the only thing responsible for energy intake? So... How can a label show 50 calories for a serving worth 10g of carbs? Wouldn't 10g of carbs equates to 40 calories?... Even when considering the other macros into count it's...
When people calculate their macros, do they try their best to make each meal close to their target macros, or are they only concerned with the day as a whole. I.e do you make each meal roughly the split you desire...
The macros on this canned salmon are amazing, I was under the impression that salmon was a fattier fish so it had more calories to protein ratio, do you think this label is lying or is it really that good?...
I was wondering if anyone has resources on how to calculate what macros you should be getting to promote overall health and immunity. Everything I've tried to look up just leads me to places trying to tell me how to...
Not sure if this was asked already in the sub, but how do you calculate your macros? How do I find out what macros I need? Is there an easy way to find this? Whenever I look it up I...
Let's say I should be eating 2000 calories a day and consuming 200 grams of protein. How much over/under those goals is considered reasonable? For example, is 1900 calories too little, 2200 too much? How about 180g of protein or...
Hi all, Pretty new to IF. Been going about a week and a half strong, and I’ve found it easier than I expected to do the 16/8 split. Going to try 24 hours soon. That being said, outside of health and...
Like if you have extra protein intake one day, less the next, etc. Does it matter if it’s pre or post workout, on a day you don’t work out, etc?
What I mean by the title is, for example, if we eat mainly protein, does that mean we will have more muscle than fat? (Considering we will be eating nearly zero carbs and relatively lowfat). Maintenance calories of course. In the...
Hi redditors, Like the title says, im wondering how bodybuilders switch foods/meals without changing their macros. I tried looking it up on google, but there seems to be no information about it.
Dried light red kidney beans (35g weight, 90 cals, 9g of protein): 11.25 calories per 1g of protein Canned light red kidney beans (130g weight, 110 cals, 7g of protein): 15.71 calories per 1g of protein Is there a reason that...
Recently I found out that counting macros are essential for the body especially protein but should not be sole focus of your diet. Focusing on eating more nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables (nutrients per calorie)to complete the daily nutritional...
Best way to track macros?? App? Thanks in advance!

If a person were to take in 0 calories (so no macronutrients) but took in sufficient micronutrients, in what ways has this been found to effect the body?
I reached my goal weight in October, and then had some life tornados and gained it back. It’s only 10 pounds ish (5’6, current weight is 138–39 and goal weight is like 127-128). I’ve done CICO before and liked it,...

I'm always hearing about people saying that to clean bulk you have to track macros and eat a certain amount of protein, carbs, and fats and have a slight 10% slurpus in calories. The thing is, I'm quite new to...
Hey everyone. I started IF on Nov 1 and it helped me break a plateau I had been stuck at for months! With my impulsivity (I do have ADHD with a co-morbidity of depression) I have been changing plans...
How do you plan meals to meet macros. I mean in terms of different foods having different ratios of macros, how do you plan to hit those macros perfectly without going over too much and vice versa. I know how...
So, using a TDEE calculator (that uses the Mifflin-St Jeor formula), I'm told I need X amount of calories per day to \_maintain\_. The calculator also provided the amount of macronutrients I'd need for maintenance. Since I'm going to do...

Dumb/annoying problem, I know, but I’m trying to hang with an OMAD/23ish/1 schedule, complying really well, but not losing weight. - I *think* my body is hanging onto everything because I’m having trouble hitting 1200 calories/day and it’s in starvation mode....

What is the thing with the “rice and chicken diet”? I feel like both people who are cutting and bulking are eating like that?! (Not everyone, I know:)). High or low in calories? I don’t understandddd

The obesity code has done more for me than Keto. Not only in weight loss but in healing my insulin resistance.

Will having squeezed lemon in water break my fast?

I'm not big on spam and the other gross over salted foods mentioned in this sub. Seems counter intuitive to me to eat over processed foods after fasting.
Hey, can anyone solve this mystery for me😅 I can't know how much calories there's in chicken legs(drumstick and thigh) with bone and with/out skin, and how much protein and fat?
I make my own chicken jerky cause it tastes great and it’s a convenient snack. I’m also starting to realise it could be a god tier snack for protein intake, if it’s a nutritionally plentiful as cooked chicken breast is....
I've heard that you need fat to aid in the digestion of other foods. If a food has very little fat, should some be added? Also would the same go for adding protein?
Been on Omad since August and I had gotten use to it but recently I have been really hungry with just one meal anyone else experience this ?
