Abstract: The energy requirement of a child or adult is the average amount of food energy needed to sustain normal body weight, normal physical activity, and any special needs associated with children's growth, recovery from illness, pregnancy, or lactation. Energy requirements should not be estimated from inaccurate measures of food intake but from energy expenditure values measured by oxygen uptake at rest, after food, and when physically active. However, now doubly labeled water techniques are being used to reevaluate the overall energy expenditure of children and adults over the period of 2–3 weeks. Tables are provided for calculating individual or group requirements.

Weight loss results may vary between individuals and results are not guaranteed in any way

The coaches involved with our app are licensed to create menus that contain recommended quantities of food, but do not have a medical background nor do they offer medical advice.

The menus generated by the app are to be taken as examples, not medical guidance.

Before starting a weight loss and exercise program or before you change your food choices, always consult with your physician.
