Question 1

What is TDEE?

Accepted Answer

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) is the total number of calories you burn in a day, including your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and physical activity.

Question 2

How accurate is this calorie calculator?

Accepted Answer

Our calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, which is considered one of the most accurate formulas for estimating calorie needs. However, individual results may vary based on body composition and other factors.

Question 3

What are macronutrients?

Accepted Answer

Macronutrients (macros) are the three main nutrients your body needs: protein, carbohydrates, and fats. They provide the energy (calories) your body needs to function.

Question 4

How should I adjust my calorie intake for weight loss or gain?

Accepted Answer

For weight loss, create a calorie deficit (eat less than your TDEE). For weight gain, create a surplus (eat more than your TDEE). A moderate deficit/surplus of 300-500 calories is recommended for sustainable results.
