All calculations and commentary on TDEE Math Hub are strictly educational and informational. A TDEE figure is a mathematical estimate of daily energy expenditure, not a measurement of your body and not a prescription for eating, exercise, or weight management.

Individual metabolic rates vary due to health status, genetics, medication, and environment. No calculator or article can account for all of these factors. Outputs should never replace evaluation or guidance from a licensed healthcare professional or registered dietitian.

Review the assumptions behind the estimate before you draw conclusions from it.
