Basal Metabolic Rate Calculator
Basal Metabolic Rate is the number of calories you'd burn if you stayed in bed all day. It is the minimum calorific requirement needed to sustain life in a resting individual. You would have noticed that every year it becomes harder to eat whatever you want and stay slim. You have also heard that your BMR decreases as you age.
BMR is the largest factor in determining overall metabolic rate and how many calories you need to maintain, lose or gain weight.
