The Harris-Benedict equation is a formula used to estimate Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which represents the number of calories the body needs at rest to maintain basic physiological functions such as breathing and circulation.
Developed by James Arthur Harris and Francis Gano Benedict in the early 20th century, the equation takes into account factors such as age, gender, weight, and height to estimate BMR.
It serves as a fundamental tool in nutrition and weight management, providing a baseline estimate of calorie needs for individuals.
A Harris-Benedict equation calculator is a tool that allows you to calculate BMR using the Harris-Benedict equation.
The formula for BMR using the Harris-Benedict equation is different for males and females:
BMR (kcal/day) = 66.5 + (13.75 × weight in kg) + (5.003 × height in cm) - (6.75 × age in years)
BMR (kcal/day) = 655.1 + (9.563 × weight in kg) + (1.850 × height in cm) - (4.676 × age in years)
To calculate your BMR, simply enter your height, weight, age, and gender in the calculator above, and it will handle the rest!
Example: A 30-year-old male, weighing 70 kg, and 175 cm tall has a BMR of approximately 1660.75 kcal/day.
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) reflects the calories the body requires at rest to sustain vital functions like breathing and circulation. Its calculated using equations like the Harris-Benedict formula, which consider factors such as age, gender, weight, and height.
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), meanwhile, encompasses all calories expended in a day, including BMR, physical activity, and the energy used during digestion (the thermic effect of food). TDEE offers a broader estimate of daily calorie needs, accounting for both resting metabolic rate and activity level.
The main difference between BMR and TDEE lies in their scope: BMR focuses solely on the bodys energy needs at rest, while TDEE considers additional energy expended through physical activity and digestion. Consequently, TDEE typically exceeds BMR, as it includes all daily activities and metabolic processes.
Understanding both BMR and TDEE is crucial for effective weight management, guiding individuals in adjusting their calorie intake to align with their energy requirements and goals.
