@my.macros: Micros do a lot more work than they get credit for. If you're cramping, sleeping bad, tired even when you're eating enough, getting sick a lot, or just feel inflamed, the problem could be one of these. Fiber. 95% of adults in the US don't get enough. Most people get about half of what they need. It slows digestion, keeps you full, feeds your gut, and stabilizes blood sugar. If you're eating high protein and ending up hungry two hours later, this is probably why. Magnesium. It helps muscle function, sleep, recovery, and energy. If you're cramping mid-workout or not sleeping well, check this first. Omega-3. Plant sources like flax and chia barely convert (under 5%), so if you're not eating fatty fish a couple times a week or taking a supplement, you're probably low on it. It matters for inflammation, joints, recovery, and brain function. Iron. Almost 40% of girls and women 12-21 are iron deficient. If you're hitting your protein but still tired all the time, check your iron levels. Potassium. Less than 3% of adults hit the recommended intake. It controls muscle contractions, blood pressure, and fluid balance. Sodium. The opposite problem. 9 in 10 adults eat too much, and almost none of it comes from salting your food. Most of it comes from packaged, processed, or restaurant food. For example: deli meat, bread, canned soup, and sauces. Most people are under on the first 5 and way over on sodium. That’s why paying attention to both macros AND micros matters. Save this for your next grocery run.
