What is the recommended keto macros ratio? We've already mentioned that the most common ratio for macronutrients during a ketogenic diet is 70% fats, 5% carbohydrates, and 25% protein. Some dietitians recommend increasing the proportion of fats even higher, to 75%, and cutting protein down to 20%.
Ketogenic diets vary but will consist of about 70–75% fat, 15–20% protein, and 5–10% of carbs per day. Focus on high fat, low carb foods like eggs, meats, dairy, and low carb vegetables, as well as sugar-free beverages. Be sure to limit highly processed foods and trans fats.
On a Keto diet, you consume 55 to 75 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 35 percent from protein, and less than 10 percent from carbohydrates. Keeping your macros in these ratios helps keep the hormone insulin low, signaling your body to burn fat and enter ketosis.
Why does eating too many carbs disrupt ketosis? Not following accepted ketogenic diet guidelines can disrupt ketosis because carbs are the body's preferred energy source. If your carb intake is too high, carbs may be used for fuel instead of ketone bodies, which is the main source of fuel during ketosis.
A well-formulated ketogenic diet not only restricts carbohydrates but also moderates protein intake to less than 1 gram per pound of body weight, with the option to increase to 1.5 grams per pound for individuals engaged in heavy exercise involving weight training.
Animal proteins are a staple on a ketogenic diet, because of their high protein and zero carbohydrates content. Chicken is an easy addition and 100g, just under half a chicken breast, contains 29g of protein and 3g of fat.
Your perfect macronutrient ratio depends on your goals, activity level, age, health, and genetics. For weight loss purposes, a moderate carb (30%-40% of calories), moderate fat (20%-30% of calories), and high protein diet (25%-35% of calories) tends to work for most people.
In essence, dirty keto is a variation of the keto diet (a high fat, moderate protein, low carb diet) that allows you to consume whatever you want as long as it meets your macro goals. While it still reduces carb intake, it does not pay attention to the nutritional value of the fats and protein consumed.

Ketone levels in your blood need to be between 0.5-3 mg/dL for your body to achieve optimal ketosis, which is the ideal state for weight loss. Yes, having a certain amount of ketones in your blood, urine or breath means that your body is burning fat.
The ketogenic (keto) diet limits carbohydrates and replaces them with fats, putting the body into a state of ketosis. To stay in ketosis, a person requires up to 50 grams (g) of carbs per day. A person following a keto diet eats foods with high levels of fats and very low levels of carbohydrates.
Protein: daily caloric intake (1,500) x % of calories from protein (0.25) / number of calories per gram of protein (4) = 93g a day. Carbs: daily caloric intake (1,500) x % of calories from carbs (0.05) / number of calories per gram of carbs (4) = 19g a day.
