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.
There is no official definition for a low carbohydrate or low carb diet. That means that there is no official number of carbohydrate grams in a low carb diet. Weight loss programs that restrict or require you to count carbohydrates are usually called low-carb diets. Current dietary guidelines suggest that we consume 40 - 60 percent of our daily calories from carbohydrates.
