I keep reading about "macros" in posts (I'm a newbie). Can anyone fill me in on what that is or means?
:ohwell:

    Macro nutrients refer to the fat, protein and carbohydrate grams. Micro nutrients are usually measured in micrograms, or similar smaller units, examples being vitamin C, iron, calcium, etc.
