Basal Metabolic Rate is the number of calories your body burns at complete rest — the minimum energy needed to keep you alive.

Total Daily Energy Expenditure is your BMR multiplied by your activity level. It estimates the calories you burn in a typical day including exercise and movement.

The Mifflin-St Jeor Equation

For men: BMR = (10 × weight in kg) + (6.25 × height in cm) − (5 × age) + 5. For women: subtract 161 instead of adding 5. This formula is considered the most accurate for predicting BMR in most adults.
