1. Numerical calculations associated with a caloric burn rate (CBR) higher than 17.9 cal/lb should be disregarded. A CBR higher than 17.9 is not considered to be a healthy level of activity.
2. The Metabolic Calculator provides the total number of calories that you require to support your level of activity and maintain your weight.
3. It also provides the average number of calories per pound used per day. This number is dependent upon the activities you select and the amount of time spent on each. The number of average calories per pound can be used as a relative indicator of your body’s metabolism provided you engage in the exercises you choose from our list on a regular basis.
4. I have added default times for sleep and general activity so if you do nothing the metabolic rate is 12 calories per pound. A metabolic rate of 12 is for a sedentary lifestyle. If you want to grow hair and be healthier, strive to achieve a higher metabolic rate. You do this by increasing your level of activity.
