자주 묻는 질문

Is Harris-Benedict still widely used?

Yes, but Mifflin-St Jeor is preferred. Harris-Benedict over-estimates in modern populations.

What's the difference from Mifflin-St Jeor?

Both reasonable; Mifflin slightly lower and more accurate for average weight. Harris-Benedict better for very lean.
