Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The percentage of our daily calories that should come from carbohydrate should be in the range of ____ to ____ %
A
5-10%
B
45-65%
C
20-25%
D
90-100%
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend that carbohydrates make up 45% to 65% of total daily calories. So if you get 2, 000 calories a day, between 900 and 1, 300 calories should be from carbohydrates. That translates to between 225 and 325 grams of carbs a day.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for carbohydrates is between 45 and 65 percent. This means that on a 2, 000 kilocalorie diet, a person should consume between 225 and 325 grams of carbohydrate each day.

Detailed explanation-3: -The USDA recommends that 45 to 65 percent of your total daily calories come from carbohydrates.

Detailed explanation-4: -The acceptable macronutrient distribution ranges (AMDR) are 45–65% of your daily calories from carbs, 20–35% from fats and 10–35% from protein.

Detailed explanation-5: -In general, most adults should target their diets to comprise of 45-65% Carbohydrates, 10-35% Protein and 20-35% Fat. (If you’re trying to lose weight, the number should be adjusted to 10-30% Carbohydrates, 40-50% Protein and 30-40% Fat.)
