Calorie Calculator

This calorie calculator will help you calculate the total energy requirement of your body. At first sight, this may seems complicated due to numerous data. However, if you just relax and take a look it is very simple because the information it asking is relatively simple.

BMR(Basal Metabolic Rate) = the number of calories you'd burn if you stayed in bed all day.

BMR decreases as you age. You thought "let stop the large intake of food daily". However, depriving yourself of food in hopes of losing weight also decreases your BMR. This is a foil to your intentions. However, if you put additional effort to a regular routine of cardiovascular exercise you can increase your BMR. This way, it will improve your health and fitness when your body's ability to burn energy gradually slows down.
