Frequently Asked Questions

What is BMR?

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the number of calories your body needs at complete rest to maintain basic functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production. It accounts for about 60-75% of your daily calorie burn.

What is TDEE?

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) is the total number of calories you burn in a day, including BMR plus physical activity. It's calculated by multiplying your BMR by an activity factor based on your lifestyle.

How accurate is this calculator?

The Mifflin-St Jeor equation is considered the most accurate BMR formula, with an accuracy of about 85-90%. Individual results may vary based on body composition, genetics, and other factors.

How many calories should I eat to lose weight?

A deficit of 500 calories per day from your TDEE typically results in about 0.5 kg (1 lb) of weight loss per week. However, it's recommended to consult a healthcare professional before starting any diet plan.
