BMR Calculator guide

What it is for

The BMR Calculator provides a planning estimate from the information entered.

How it is calculated

Mifflin–St Jeor BMR = 10 × weight in kg + 6.25 × height in cm − 5 × age + sex constant. Convert pounds by 0.45359237 and inches by 2.54 first.

Assumptions

It assumes the inputs use the requested units and represent a general reference population, not an individual assessment.

Example

A 30-year-old female at 150 lb and 65 in has modeled resting needs of about 1,401 kcal/day, before any activity multiplier.

Limitations

This is an educational estimate, not a diagnosis, treatment, or dosing instruction. Consult a licensed healthcare professional, particularly during pregnancy, with symptoms, or before changing health behavior.
