Calculate Total Energy Expenditure (TEE)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Total Energy Expenditure (TEE) is:

\[ TEE = 1.2 \times \text{Weight} \times \text{PAL} \]

Where:

Definitions

Example

Let's say the body weight is 70 kg and the physical activity level (PAL) is 1.5. Using the formula:

\[ TEE = 1.2 \times 70 \times 1.5 \]

We get:

\[ TEE \approx 126.00 \text{ kcal/day} \]

So, the total energy expenditure is approximately 126.00 kcal/day.
