80 percent proteins, 10 percent carbohydrates, 10 percent fats
Daily calorie intake should be divided into a baseline of 1/4 protein (beans, lentils, lean meat), 1/4 vegetables, 1/4 fruits and 1/4 grains for an adult in good health. Dairy products such as cheese and milk should be kept to a minimum. Caloric needs for adults are sensitive to weight, age, activity level, height and a variety of other factors including region. For example if a person is 22, weighs 120 pounds, and is relatively inactive, they require about 1800 calories a day to sustain that weight and lifestyle.
