I go for 45% Carbs, 30% Protein and 25% Fats.

I take slightly more protein than average as I workout a lot and am aiming to build more muscle. 50% is definitely too much though as it will over work the kidneys as someone else has said.

Also the 25% fats also includes the good fats ie. mono and poly. Keep saturated fats to below 10%.
