"It’s about balance and not exclusion… Lean protein, unsaturated fats, and fiber-rich carbohydrates, that is going to serve you well and it’s going to keep you healthy." ~Jacqui Bryan Today on Beating Cancer Daily:· Understanding that macronutrients are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and these three together fuel cellular and whole-body function.· No single macro is “bad," all should be in harmony and the right sources matter.· Distribution of macros should be individualized based on age, activity level, medical conditions, and health goals.· Special considerations exist, such as higher protein needs during cancer treatment or post-surgery, and lower protein if there’s kidney disease.· It’s critical to prioritize whole, clean foods: whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and fiber-rich choices over processed foods.· The quality of protein (clean vs. processed) and the balance of complete and incomplete plant sources are key for vegans and vegetarians.· Most American adults get far too little fiber, aiming for 30 grams a day from plant-based sources supports heart health, regularity, and lower inflammation.· Trans fats and highly processed carbohydrates should be avoided in favor of unsaturated fats and natural sources of carbohydrates.
