A useful starting point
Your needs are personal.
Get a simple, personalized baseline for daily calories, protein, and hydration, then use it as a conversation starter with your healthcare professional.
This calculator provides educational estimates, not medical advice. It uses the selected female or male Mifflin–St Jeor resting-energy equation. Estimates may not suit pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain health conditions, medications, or individual training needs.
Nutrition snapshot
A clearer baseline
This adult estimate uses the selected sex-specific Mifflin–St Jeor equation. It is an estimate, not a measurement of your metabolism. Activity and goal adjustments are illustrative, not a calorie or weight-loss prescription. Individual needs vary; discuss nutrition goals with a qualified healthcare professional.
