Reducing the carbs you eat, while increasing protein, may help you lose weight and improve your body composition, according to a study published in The Journal of Nutrition in 2003. Thus, a mix of about 45 percent carbohydrates, 30 percent protein and 25 percent fat may be helpful for losing weight. If you eat 1,500 calories a day, that gives you about 170 grams of carbs, 112 grams of protein, 42 grams of fat.
According to Dr. Perlmutter in his book Grain Brain, our Paleolithic ancestors ate a diet of approximately 75% fat, 20% protein, and 5% carbs. So let's say you wanted to eat 1600 calories a day, this looks roughly like 20 grams of carbs, 80 grams of protein, and 133 grams of fat. You don't want to eat too much protein because the process of gluconeogenesis will convert excess protein to glucose and will sabotage your low carb / ketogenic efforts. If you weigh 80 kilograms (a quick google search for a pounds to kilograms converter is a good idea here), eat 80 grams of protein daily.
