Instructions

  1. A large chunk of the daily energy needs is determined by physical activity, the rest being devoted to keeping the body functioning. Please assess your level of physical activity as follows:
    • Sedentary: just the physical activities that are required for independent living.
    • Low active: the equivalent of 30-minute walking at ± 6 km/h daily in addition to the former.
    • Active: the equivalent of 1-hour walking at ± 6 km/h daily in addition to sedentary living.
    • Very active: the equivalent of 4-hour walking at ± 6 km/h daily in addition to sedentary living.
  2. The equations of energy requirements assume healthy subjects, of average frame, living in a normal ambient temperature.
