Diet and Health Info

The Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is calculated using your height, weight, gender, and age. It’s more accurate in calculating calorie needs than formulas based on using just your body weight.

It does omit one factor - lean body mass - and so will be inaccurate if your very muscular (it will underestimate your calorie needs) or very fat (it will over estimate your calorie needs.)
