DEBUNKED: 6 Myths to Macro Counting

Are you falling victim to common macro myths that may be sabotaging your nutrition goals? In today's episode, I debunk six of them to set the record straight on macros and how they are essential fuel for everyone, no matter your physical activity level. Listen in as I emphasize the importance of simply starting with awareness in tracking your macros and how adjusting them strategically can lead to incredible results.
