We use Mifflin St Jeor Equation to calculate nutrition goals in our APP.

This paper have found that Mifflin St Jeor Equation is more likely than other equations to estimate basal metabolic rate to within 10% of that measured by indirect calorimetry.

Men: BMR = (10 × weight [kg]) + (6.25 × height [cm]) – (5 × age [years]) + 5

Women: BMR = (10 × weight [kg]) + (6.25 × height [cm]) – (5 × age [years]) – 161
