    Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins? What don't you understand? All food is composed of either a combination or single one of these. They have different role in health and nutrition.

    Carbs = 4 calories per gram
    Protein = 4 calories per gram
    Fat = 9 calories per gram

    Macros are carbohydrate, fat and protein. Maybe sugar too I don't know.

    It generally makes for boring conversation and we don't indulge it much in Chit Chat.

    They love to talk about macros in the food, nutrition, fitness and debate discussion rooms.

    I mean, you'll run down the street screaming wishing you never heard the word macro after eavesdropping on their conversations about the damn macros.
