Calories
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) and daily calorie needs from sex, age, height, weight and activity.
The formula is for adults. Children, teenagers and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding should ask a doctor.
The Mifflin-St Jeor formula estimates the energy used at rest, and the activity factor adds daily expenditure.
BMR = 10m + 6.25h − 5a + 5 (male), − 161 (female)
This is an average estimate: individual needs can differ. Severe calorie restriction is harmful; if you have a medical condition or eating disorder, see a doctor.
