Energy/Calories Requirement Calculator

Home Energy/Calories Requirement Calculator

What is the Calorie Requirement?

Calories are units of energy your body uses for everything — from keeping your heart beating and lungs working, to walking, thinking, and exercising. Without enough calories, your body cannot function properly

How Does the Energy/Calories Requirement Calculator Work?

The calculator uses formulas such as:

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR):

 The number of calories your body burns at rest (just to keep you alive).

Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE):

Your BMR plus the calories you burn from activities like walking, working, and exercising.

You’ll be asked to enter details such as your age, gender, height, weight, and activity level. Also consider consulting a general physician in Coimbatore to seek personalized advice on calorie requirements.
