Calorie Calculation Formula
This tool uses the **Mifflin-St Jeor Equation**, a scientifically validated formula for calculating Basal
Metabolic Rate (BMR):
For Men:
BMR = (10 × weight in kg) + (6.25 × height in cm) - (5 × age) + 5
For Women:
BMR = (10 × weight in kg) + (6.25 × height in cm) - (5 × age) - 161
Caloric Needs Based on Activity Level
To determine **Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)**, your BMR is multiplied by an activity factor:
- 🏠 Sedentary (Little to no exercise): BMR × 1.2
- 🚶 Light Activity (1-3 days of exercise per week): BMR × 1.375
- 🏋️ Moderate Activity (3-5 days of exercise per week): BMR × 1.55
- 🏃 Active (6-7 days of exercise per week): BMR × 1.725
- 🔥 Very Active (Intense training or physical job): BMR × 1.9
