Basal Metabolic Rate is the mimimal caloric
requirement required to sustain life in a resting or
sleeping individual that is not subject to the influence
of stress, hunger, muscular activities, ambient
temperature and health conditions. Basal Metabolic
rate reflects an individual's metabolic condition and
has been considered as a reference for weight control
and the maintenance of health. Basal Metabolic rate,
to a certain extent, can reflect whether the individual
is suffering from a certain disease such as thyroxin.
The formula for calculating BMR provided by your
mobile phone is the Harris-Benedict formula, which
is as follows:
Female: BMR = 655 + (9.6 x weight in kg)+(1.8 x
height in cm)- (4.7 x age)
Male: BMR = 66 + (13.7 x weight in kg)+(5 x height
in cm)- (6.8 x age)
In the above method of calculation, the unit for weight is
in kilogrammes and the unit for height is in centimetres.
As it takes an individual's age factor into consideration,
this method of measurement is more precise.
Take for example a 68 kg, 168 cm tall, 21 year old
male; his daily Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) will be :
66+(13.7x68)+(5x168)-(6.8x21)=66+932+840-
143=1695 calories.
