Understanding Macronutrients and Micronutrients

A table with bowls of food on it

A meal plan is useless without essential macros and micros – the powerhouses that fuel your weight loss and fitness journey. Let’s break them down.

Macros: Your Energy MVPs!

Macronutrients should be your go-to energy source, especially if you are building muscle. Your body needs these in large quantities to maintain energy levels and reduce post-workout fatigue. You can get through:

These include nuts, beans and meat. Have plenty of these in your diet to repair and maintain muscle tissue during strength training.

Not all carbs are bad for you! Get these from vegetables, fruits, and nuts to power through rigorous workouts and throughout your day.

You will lose energy fast if you don’t have fats in your diet. Like carbs, not all fat sources lead to weight gain IF you accompany your diet with exercise. The healthy fat you can get from olive oil, nuts, and avocados, for example, can improve nutrient absorption for faster and more visible gains.

Micros: The Support Team

Micronutrients might be small, but they play big roles in health and wellness:

From supporting growth and development to facilitating cells and organs, a steady dose of vitamins
can keep diseases and the effects of old age at bay.

Minerals such as potassium, iron, and calcium keep your health in check by strengthening bones and ensuring smooth blood flow.
