Calculation Method
The calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation to estimate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is the number of calories your body needs at rest. It then multiplies the BMR by an activity factor that corresponds to your chosen activity level to estimate your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE).
Limitations
Please note that while this calculator provides a good estimate, individual calorie needs can vary based on factors not accounted for in this model, such as muscle mass, metabolic health, and medical conditions. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
