Carbohydrate Calculator
Calculate your daily carbohydrate needs, including Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), daily calorie requirements, and detailed carbohydrate distribution recommendations.
Simple Carbohydrates
Simple carbohydrates consist of one or two sugar molecules that are quickly broken down and absorbed by the body. While they provide quick energy, they can cause rapid blood sugar spikes.
Complex Carbohydrates
Complex carbohydrates are made up of longer chains of sugar molecules that take longer to digest, providing sustained energy without causing sharp blood sugar fluctuations.
Dietary Fiber
Dietary fiber is a type of complex carbohydrate that cannot be digested by the body. It's important for digestive health and blood sugar control.
Carbohydrates are the body's primary energy source and should make up 45-65% of your total daily calories.
Prioritize complex carbohydrates and high-fiber foods as they provide sustained energy and help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
Adjust your carbohydrate intake based on your exercise timing and intensity, with higher intake around workouts.
