What this tool does
TDEE estimates the total calories you burn in a day, including activity. It starts from BMR and multiplies by an activity factor.
Formula used
TDEE = BMR (Mifflin-St Jeor) × an activity multiplier ranging from 1.2 (sedentary) to 1.9 (extremely active). This is the standard Harris-Benedict-style activity scaling used across most nutrition tools.
Frequently asked questions
Which activity level should I pick?
Be conservative - most people overestimate their activity level, which leads to overestimating TDEE and eating more than intended.
