Frequently Asked Questions

How many calories do I need daily?

Calorie needs depend on BMR and activity. Average adult: 1,800-2,400 kcal/day. BMR = 10 × weight(kg) + 6.25 × height(cm) - 5 × age - 161 (female) or +5 (male).

How many calories to lose weight?

A deficit of 500-1,000 kcal/day leads to 0.5-1 kg weight loss per week. Never go below 1,200 kcal/day (women) or 1,500 kcal/day (men) without medical supervision.

What is BMR?

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