BASAL METABOLIC RATE (BMR)
Metabolism is the word used to describe all processes that use or release energy in the human body.
The minimum amount of energy needed for an individual to stay alive is known as basal metabolism.
For each individual there is a minimum amount of energy required to sustain the body’s vital functions in the waking state. BMR is then the estimated amount of energy your body requires during a 24-hour period to maintain these essential bodily elements, such as temperature, heart rate, brain and lungs, to function at rest.
The greater the BMR per kg of Body Mass, the faster your body will consume the excess calories. Regular exercise may assist in increasing BMR.
A nutritional regime of 20 to 30% below your Basal Metabolism is a guarantee of weight loss, but to safeguard your general health and obtain the desired effects, you should contact a nutritionist and follow a proper Treatment Programme.
