The Mifflin St. Jeor Equation Calculation Wheel
WHAT IS THIS EQUATION? The Mifflin St. Jeor Equation was recommended for use as the standard predictive equation for Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) by the American Dietetic Association, replacing the formerHarris-Benedict Equation. The following are the calculations used to determine REE for healthy, adult males and females: MALE: 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 5 x Age + 5 FEMALE: 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 5 x Age -161
HOW CAN I USE THIS EQUATION IN MY PRACTICE? The Mifflin St. Jeor Equation can be used to estimate the REE of healthy, adult patients. To create a more interactive experience for your patients, we have designed an “Energy Estimation Wheel” for resting energy expenditure (REE) and resting metabolic rate (RMR).
