What is BMR and why does it matter?

BMR stands for Basal Metabolic Rate. It’s the number of calories your body needs to function at rest. Knowing your BMR helps you build an accurate nutrition plan for any goal—weight loss, maintenance, or weight gain.

What’s the difference between BMR and TDEE?

Your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) is your BMR plus the calories burned from activity and digestion. It gives you a realistic daily calorie goal based on your lifestyle.

Can I use this if I’m not trying to lose weight?

Absolutely. The calculator works for all goals—including weight maintenance and healthy weight gain. You can also use it to understand your metabolism better.

How accurate is the calculator?

This calculator uses the Harris-Benedict equation, a scientifically validated formula. While it’s a solid estimate, results may vary based on body composition, health conditions, or metabolism differences.

Can I get help from a dietitian?

Yes. At the end of the form, you can request a personalised meal plan or one-on-one consultation with an Accredited Practising Dietitian.
