How many carbohydrates should a person eat daily?

In: Carbohydrates and Low-Carb Diets [Edit categories]

Answer:

A health professional told me 15 carbs per meal is not excessive. However, to lose weight, 7 carbs a meal is a reasonable number because your body does require carbs to function normaly.

For weight loss, the usual range is 20 to 50 grams daily. You must determine how strict you need to be; the best way is to experiment and discover what amount works well for you as an individual. If you are trying to lose weight, see the related question and answer, further down this page, listed under "Related Questions."
