In Episode #38, we discuss the importance of macros and micros for vegans. Tracking these important stats isn’t just for body builders and athletes. As a vegan, it’s important to make sure we have a good balance of fats, carbs, and protein while also supplying our bodies with the right amount of nutrients, minerals, and vitamins.
What are Macros and Micros?
Macros are essentially the house your micros make up. While Micros are the building blocks of the macros that build the houses. In this episode, we discuss how essential it is to track macros and micros for vegans. By tracking these stats you can quickly determine what is missing in your nutrition. For example, if you are lacking in a specific vitamin or nutrient or if your daily protein intake is low, tracking will point that out.
