Step-by-step

  1. Total kcal = P×4 + C×4 + F×9 = 120×4 + 280×4 + 80×9 = 2,320.
  2. Per serving: divide each macro by 4.
  3. Macro ratio P/C/F (% of kcal): 21% / 48% / 31%.

About this calculator

Macros (protein / carbs / fat) per serving give a more useful nutrition profile than calories alone. Atwater factors: 4 kcal/g for protein and carbs, 9 kcal/g for fat. The macro ratio (protein% / carb% / fat% of kcal) is how diets are categorized: keto runs 5/20/75, balanced 25/45/30, high-protein 35/40/25. Sum honestly — alcohol is 7 kcal/g, glycerol 4.3, but most home cooks can ignore those edge cases.

Frequently asked

Most likely fiber (counts as carb but contributes ~2 kcal/g), alcohol (7 kcal/g), or sugar alcohols. Within ±10% is typical.
