Method: Mifflin–St Jeor BMR × activity factor. Activity bands reflect common consumer practice and roughly align with FAO/WHO PAL ranges.

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate): The calories your body burns at complete rest, just to maintain vital functions like breathing and circulation.

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure): Your total daily calorie needs, based on BMR multiplied by your activity level.
