How much carbs should you have per day?

Answer 1

It can't. One gram of carbohydrates ( ie bread, sugar) contains 4 calories. This is the same for one gram of protein (ie chicken, beef). But one gram of fat ( ie butter, oil) provides 9 calories of energy. By the way, 3500 calories is the equivalent of 1 pound of body fat.

Answer 2

To be really healthy you should consume as few refined processed carbohydrates as possible (see the list of these foods further down this page). Get your carbohydrates from fresh vegetables and some low carbohydrate fruits such as berries. If you are trying to lose weight, consume from 20 to 60 carbohydrates per day. You will need to experiment with that range and see what number works best for you.

Answer 3

No more than fifty percent of a person's calories should come from carbohydrates. Therefore, if you eat 1000 calories, no more than 500 should be carbohydrates.

Answer 4

about 1500 calories/day for women
about 1700 calories/day for men
but it really depends on height, weight, activity level (because it is different for each person)

Answer 5

around 30 grams of fat. make sure your fat comes from protein, rather than carbs. if you consume 1000 calories a day, you will lose one pound a week.

Answer 6

0. This because carbohydrates are non-essential. But that doesn't mean that you can't eat any carbohydrates.

Answer 7

it depends

Answer 8
