To determine how many grams should come from carbohydrates in a 3000-calorie diet, you first need to decide the percentage of total calories that will come from carbohydrates. Typically, carbohydrates should make up about 45-65% of total calories. If we take 50% as an example, then 1500 calories would come from carbohydrates. Since there are 4 calories per gram of carbohydrates, you would need approximately 375 grams of carbohydrates (1500 calories ÷ 4 calories/gram).
You can benefit from watching both calories and carbohydrates if you are overweight, particularly refined (processed) carbohydrates.
In general, 45% - 65% of your daily calories should come from carbohydrates.Example:If you eat 2000 calories a day, 900-1300 calories (225-325 grams) of carbohydrates are recommended.
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, states that half of your calories should come from carbohydrates. For example, if you eat approximately 2,000 calories per day, you should take in about 250 grams of carbohydrates.
You can go for 30 to 50 grams of carbohydrates in your diet. But if you take about 100 grams of carbohydrates, that is okay. You need to reduce the total calories to reduce the weight.
The recommendation for carbohydrates is that they should be coming from 45-65% of the calories in your diet.
45% to 65% of calories eaten should come from carbohydrates, recommend a minimum level of protein.
The general recommendation is 45-65%.
