FAQ

What is BMR?

It is the minimum calories your body burns per day at rest to sustain vital functions like breathing and temperature regulation.

How do I use TDEE?

Eating below your TDEE leads to weight loss and above it to weight gain. A common target for weight loss is TDEE minus 300–500 kcal.

Which formula is used?

The Mifflin-St Jeor equation (1990), widely regarded as the most accurate. Actual metabolism varies with factors like muscle mass, so treat results as estimates.
