How many grams of protein should I eat?

Most guidelines suggest 0.8–2.2 g of protein per kg of body weight depending on activity level. Active individuals and those building muscle benefit from higher protein intake.

What is the best macro split?

There is no single best split. Balanced (30/40/30) works well for most people. High protein (40/30/30) suits muscle building. Low carb/keto suits those cutting carbs for fat loss.

Do macros matter more than calories?

Total calories determine weight change. Macros determine body composition — how much of the change is fat vs muscle. Both matter for optimal results.
