Carbohydrate Intake Formula
$$\text{Carbohydrates (g)} = \frac{\text{Total Calories} \times \text{Carb Percentage}}{4}$$
1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 calories. The general recommendation for carb intake is 45–65% of your total daily calorie intake.
Calculation Example
- Total Calories: 2,200 kcal
- Carb Target: 55%
Result:
$$\frac{2200 \times 0.55}{4} = 302.5 \, \text{grams of carbs/day}$$
