Base Metabolic Rate (BMR)Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the minimal energy requirement needed to
sustain life in a resting individual. In other words, this is the minimum
amount of calories that your body needs just to stay alive. BMR values
vary according to gender, age, weight and height. A big proportion of
the calories we expend daily are used just to keep us alive. Given this
fact, it is clear that calorie restriction is a very important consideration
when dieting. By knowing your BMR, you know how much food (calories) you
need to consume to lose, maintain or gain weight.
