STEPS TO CALCULATE NUTRIENT REQUIREMENT

1. Calcula on of Ideal Body Weight by Broka’s Index

Ideal body weight = height in cen meters – 100

2. Harris Benedict (Revised formula 1990)

Men (BMR) = (10 * wt. in kg) + (6.25 * ht. in cm) – (5 * age) +5
Women (BMR) = (10 * wt. in kg) + (6.25 * ht. in cm) – (5 * age) – 161

3. TEE/ PAL Calcula on-

Li le or no exercise, calories = BMR * 1.2
Light exercise, calories = BMR * 1.375
Moderately ac ve, calories = BMR * 1.55
Very ac ve, calories = BMR * 1.725
Extra ac ve or sports person, calories = BMR * 1.9

4. Protein = 1gm/kg IBW (May vary according to disease condi on)

5. Fat = 20% of Kcal / 9 (Fat percent may vary according to disease condi on)

6. Carbohydrate = [Energy – (P * 4 + F * 9)]/4
