Smart Calorie Calculator – Accurate Daily Intake

Our smart calorie calculator tool will help you easily determine your daily caloric needs based on your personal details.






How to Use the Smart Calorie Calculator

Enter your age, select your gender, and then provide your height and weight. Choose an activity level that best describes your daily routine. Click “Calculate” to see your daily calorie needs.

How It Calculates the Results

The calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation to estimate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is the number of calories your body needs at rest. It then multiplies the BMR by the Activity Level factor to determine your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), which is the number of calories you need to consume each day to maintain your current weight.

Equations:
Male: BMR = 10 * weight (kg) + 6.25 * height (cm) – 5 * age (years) + 5
Female: BMR = 10 * weight (kg) + 6.25 * height (cm) – 5 * age (years) – 161

Limitations

This calculator provides an estimate and may not be 100% accurate. Factors like body composition, muscle mass, and metabolism rate can affect the actual calories needed. For personalized advice, consult a healthcare provider or a dietitian.
