Basal energy expenditure equations

TABLE 135—11. Equations to Estimate Basal Energy Expenditure in Adults and Children... [Pg.2570]

Food intake is one side of the body weight equation energy expenditure is the other. One aspect of energy expenditure is our basal metabolic rate. That is the rate of which we consume energy when at rest. Basal metabolic rates vary significantly from person... [Pg.242]

The energy expenditure (EE) is the amount of energy used, i.e., required for health, growth, and a level of activity. EE can be calculated either with an equation or by direct measurement. The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is measured in calories and is primarily accounted for by the activity of the brain, heart, liver, and kidneys. The Harris-Benedict equations (following below) are commonly used for calculation of the BMR in adults. [Pg.403]
