Factoring in carbs before fats provides me with a more fibrous and micronutrient-rich diet. So long as you are healthy, active, and hitting your protein needs, you can adjust your ratio of carbs to fats interchangeably. Just make sure to keep total carb quantities in check. To minimize insulin response, eat no more than 50 grams of carbs at any one time, and always pair them with protein and some fat.
