Carbohydrates are your body’s main source of energy. The amount of carbs a man should consume daily depends on his age and activity level. The Institute of Medicine suggests adults to eat at least 130 grams of carbs a day. But If you’re a competitive athlete like Shana, you need additional amount.

<span>A study made by The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends a 2.3 to 4.5 grams of carbohydrates per pound of body weight each day, to athletes depending on the intensity of training. Therefore,  Shana who weighs 135 lbs, needs approximately  310.5 grams carbohydrates daily for her physical workouts. </span>
