What is the recommended carb intake per day?

Carbohydrates are form of sugar that provides energy to the body. In order for our bodies to use this as a source of energy efficiently, carbohydrates should be broken into other forms. Sources of carbohydrates include rice, pasta, cereals, and vegetables.

They are recommended to be part of our diet in order for us to have enough energy to do all our activities. Carbohydrate is essential for brain function. That is the reason why if you do not eat anything for several hours, you will feel weak.

This is because there is no carbohydrate for your body to convert into energy. Carbohydrate is also important in building body muscles. It is recommended to consume 130 grams of carbohydrates per day.

This is equivalent to 520 kilocalories, which is enough to provide energy for the body. However, this is not standard for everybody since the required amount of carbohydrate intake varies according to age, lifestyle, gender, and general health status. -quote The traditional guideline for determining caloric intake has been to consider the amount of carbohydrate to be consumed as a proportion of total caloric intake.

The recommendation for the general population is that carbohydrate should supply 50 to 55 percent of total calories, and the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) is 130 grams per day (520 calories per day) for male and female adults. -end quote Source: healthline.com/hlbook/nut-carbohydrate-r....

I am not a dietician. The recommended carbohydrate intake per day for adults and children over the age of four is six to twelve servings. Of those six to twelve servings, at least half of them should be whole grains.

A serving of carbohydrates equates to a slice of bread, half of a medium sized bagel or half of a cup of cooked cereal, rice, legumes, or other grain or grain product. If you eat a sandwich made with two slices of bread, you’ve had two of your servings of grain for the day. Whole grain carbohydrates (whole grain bread, pasta, cereals etc.) are better for you than the more processed carbohydrates are.

Whole grains have had less processing before being baked into the carbohydrate. The less processing a carbohydrate has had before you eat it, the better it is for your body. For most people, the more carbohydrate servings you have over twelve, the worse off you’re going to be.

Your body will convert the extra carbohydrates into fat. If you are very active, you can eat a few more carbohydrates as you need them for energy.
