According to the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, carbohydrates should make up 45 to 65 percent of a person's total daily calorie intake. Any amount less than this could be considered low carb. For someone consuming 2,000 calories a day, this is about 225 to 325 grams of carbohydrates per day. Most low-carb diets limit carbohydrate intake to between 50 to 150 grams per day, depending on the diet.
Carbohydrates are found in abundance in breads, pasta, baked goods and sugary drinks. A low-carb diet limits your intake of these foods while emphasizing protein and fats. How many carbs you're permitted on a low-carb diet depends on the plan you're following. Some restrictive plans deny most fruits, including apples, while other low-carb diets permit them in moderation.
