Calculators

Unlike "Checkups & Reference Values," which looks up standard reference ranges, this section collects calculators where you enter your own height, weight, age, and sex to work out figures like your basal metabolic rate and calorie needs.

BMR Calculator (Basal Metabolic Rate)

Enter your sex, age, height, and weight to calculate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) — the minimum energy your body burns at rest — using both the original 1919 and revised 1984 Harris-Benedict equations, side by side.
