This calculator estimates resting energy expenditure (basal metabolic rate) for adults aged 70 and older.
Resting energy expenditure refers to the number of calories burned while at rest.

If you do not have a measurement for lower leg circumference (the thickest part of the calf), please use a different formula.

This calculator is based on a paper published in the scientific journal *Nutrition* by Fumiya Kawase and colleagues, in collaboration with researchers from Asuke Hospital and Nagoya University of Arts and Sciences, regarding prediction equations for resting energy expenditure.
Kawase F, Masaki Y, Ozawa H, Imanaka M, Sugiyama A, Wada H, Kobayashi S, Tsukahara T. New prediction equations for resting energy expenditure in older hospitalized patients: Development and validation. Nutrition. 2023 Nov;115:112188.
