Calorie Calculator
PopularCalculate TDEE, daily calories, BMR, and macro split (protein, carbs, fat) for weight loss, maintenance, or gain.
This all-in-one nutrition calculator computes your BMR, TDEE (maintenance calories), goal-adjusted daily target, and full macro split — protein, carbohydrates, and fat — with an interactive pie chart. No need to jump between separate TDEE, calorie, and macro tools.
Uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation multiplied by your activity level. Choose lose weight (−20%), maintain, or build muscle (+15%) and get instant gram targets for each macronutrient.
High engagement health content: users return monthly to adjust calories as weight changes. Pair results with our dedicated macro calculator for fine-tuning protein intake for strength training or endurance sports.
Typical output for a 70 kg, moderately active adult: BMR around 1,600 kcal, TDEE near 2,500 kcal, with roughly 140 g protein, 250 g carbs, and 70 g fat at maintenance. Your numbers shift with age, sex, height, and activity — enter yours for a personalized plan.

TDEE, daily calories, and macro split in one tool.
Formula
BMR (Mifflin-St Jeor): men = 10×kg + 6.25×cm − 5×age + 5 · women = 10×kg + 6.25×cm − 5×age − 161 · TDEE = BMR × activity factor
