Understanding Lard Nutrition
Per serving of 100g, Lard provides 902 calories with a macronutrient split of roughly 0% protein, 0% carbohydrates, and 100% fat. This makes it a fat-dominant, high-calorie food within the Oils & Fats category.
How it fits in a balanced diet: Fat provides most of the calories (100%) — typical of nuts, oils, and dairy products. These foods are calorie-dense and can be used in smaller portions for flavor, satiety, or as part of higher-fat dietary patterns.
