Keto/Low-Carb Macro Calculator

About Keto/Low-Carb Macros

This calculator helps you determine your ideal macronutrient ratios for a ketogenic or low-carb diet. The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates.

Understanding Your Macros:

  • Fat: Primary energy source on keto (70-80% of calories)
  • Protein: Maintains muscle mass (20-25% of calories)
  • Net Carbs: Limited to induce ketosis (typically 20-50g daily)

Keto Levels:

  • Standard Ketogenic Diet (SKD): Very low-carb (20-30g net carbs)
  • Moderate Low-Carb: 30-50g net carbs
  • Liberal Low-Carb: 50-100g net carbs
