    You can adjust them if you change your "Goals" on your home page - put in "custom" and you can vary them how you like. I have mine set at 30 carbs, 40 protein and 30 fat because I am trying to cut down on carbs but I am not doing LCHF - some people have higher and lower values - just depends how you want to work it. Hope this helps.
