    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%
    The USDA used this information to establish a baby’s macronutrient guidelines:
