Hi, what is the formula used by zone diet to find out your daily requirements. I already have my lean body mass, i just need to the exact formula to work out my carbs,proteins and fats.

cheers
Tom

Tom, multiply your LBM times your activity factor to get you daily protein requirement in grams. The activity factors, which represent grams of protein per pound of LBM, are Sedentary 0.5, Light 0.6, Moderate 0.7, Active 0.8, Very Active 0.9, Elite 1. You can use the descriptions in the calculator on this site to determine your activity level (http://www.zonediet.com/tools/body-...lculator). Take care not to overestimate. Once you have your daily protein requirement, divide that by 7 to get your daily block recommendation (there are 7 grams of protein in each Zone protein block).
