How it's calculated
Mifflin-St Jeor (1990): Men: BMR = 10 × kg + 6.25 × cm − 5 × age + 5 Women: BMR = 10 × kg + 6.25 × cm − 5 × age − 161
Basal metabolic rate is the energy you would burn lying still for a day: breathing, circulation, keeping warm. Mifflin-St Jeor is the equation most dietitians use; it is usually within about 10% of a measured value for most adults, less so for very muscular or very heavy people. The revised Harris-Benedict equation is shown for comparison.
