What is Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)?
Basal Metabolic Rate evaluates the baseline energy your body needs to survive. Understanding this metric can be crucial when trying to lose weight in conjunction with understanding your BMI (Body Mass Index).
The Impact of Aging
Age is one of the biggest factors that influences your BMR. As you grow older, your metabolism naturally slows down. This makes calculating your daily caloric needs critical for maintaining a healthy lifestyle over time.
