MACRONUTRIENT
MACRONUTRIENT REQUIREMENTS FOR BABIES
The composition of breast milk is a great starting point for our understanding of kids’ macronutrient needs. The macronutrient ratio of human breast milk is quite variable, and may even change based on a baby’s specific needs.
BREAST MILK RATIO
Carbohydrates — 57% to 70%.
Fat — 28% to 39%
Protein — 7% to 10%
Fat — 28% to 39%
Protein — 7% to 10%
The USDA used this information to establish a baby’s macronutrient guidelines:
| AGE | RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCE | |
| PROTEIN |
0 - TO 6 MONTHS 7 TO 12 MONTHS |
9.1 GRAMS PER DAY 11 GRAMS PER DAY |
| CARBS |
0 - TO 6 MONTHS 7 TO 12 MONTHS |
60 GRAMS PER DAY 95 GRAMS PER DAY |
