Total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) estimates calories burned daily. Used for weight management and nutritional planning.

ସୂତ୍ର

TDEE = BMR × Activity factor
BMR
BMR value — Variable used in the calculation

ଷ୍ଟେପ୍-ଷ୍ଟେପ୍ ଗାଇଡ୍ |

  1. 1Calculate BMR/RMR using Harris-Benedict or Mifflin-St Jeor formula
  2. 2Multiply by activity factor: 1.2 (sedentary) to 1.9 (very active)
  3. 3TDEE = BMR × Activity factor

ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଉଦାହରଣ

ଇନପୁଟ୍
70 kg, 175 cm, 40 yo male, moderate exercise
ଫଳ
BMR ≈ 1700, TDEE ≈ 2550 cal/day
For weight maintenance

ଏଡ଼ାଇବା ଯୋଗ୍ୟ ସାଧାରଣ ଭୁଲ

  • Over-estimating activity levels
  • Assuming TDEE is constant (it adapts to diet)

ବାରମ୍ବାର ଜିଜ୍ଞାସା

Which formula is most accurate?

Mifflin-St Jeor is more accurate than Harris-Benedict for modern populations.

How does TDEE change with diet/exercise?

Severe caloric restriction reduces TDEE (adaptive thermogenesis). Exercise increases it.
