Calorie Calculator
Daily calorie needs (TDEE)
Formula
Male BMR = 10×w + 6.25×h − 5×age + 5
Female BMR = 10×w + 6.25×h − 5×age − 161
TDEE = BMR × Activity Multiplier

What's the difference between BMR and TDEE?
BMR is the calories your body burns at complete rest. TDEE accounts for your activity level on top of BMR — it's the actual total you burn daily.
How accurate is this calculator?
The Mifflin-St Jeor equation is considered the most accurate for most adults. However, individual metabolism varies. Treat the result as a starting estimate and adjust based on your real-world results.
