BMR
In Harris-Benedict equation, what is the BMR formula for men?

A. BMR = 66.48 + (6.24 x weight in lbs) - (12.8 x height in inches) - (6.755 x age)

B. BMR = 66.47 + (6.24 x weight in kg) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.755 x age)

C. BMR = 66.47 + (6.24 x weight in lbs) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.755 x age)

D. BMR = 66.48 + (6.24 x weight in lbs) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.755 x age)

In Harris-Benedict equation, what is the BMR formula for women?

A. BMR = 655.1 + (4.35 x weight in lbs) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age)

B. BMR = 655.3 + (4.35 x weight in kls) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.8 x age)

C. BMR = 645.1 + (4.35 x weight in lbs) + (4.7 x height in meters) - (4.7 x age)

D. BMR = 655.3 + (4.35 x weight in lbs) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.8 x age)

In Mifflin-St.Jeor equation, what is the BMR formula for women?

A. BMR = (4.536 x weight in kls) + (15.88 x height in meters) - (5 x age) - 161

B. BMR = (4.536 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in inches) - (5 x age) - 161

C. BMR = (4.536 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in meters) - (5 x age) - 161

D. BMR = (4.536 x weight in kls) + (15.88 x height in inches) - (5 x age) - 161

In Mifflin-St.Jeor equation, what is the BMR formula for men?

A. BMR = (4.537 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in inches) - (5 x age) + 6

B. BMR = (4.536 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in meters) - (5 x age) + 5

C. BMR = (4.537 x weight in kls) + (15.88 x height in meters) - (5 x age) + 6

D. BMR = (4.536 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in inches) - (5 x age) + 5

Using the Mifflin-St.Jeor equation, find the BMR formula for men, 40 years old with a height of
75 inches and a weight of 160lbs.

Given:

Age = 40 years old

Height in inches= 75 inches

Weight=160lbs

Solution:

BMR = (4.536 x weight in lbs) + (15.88 x height in inches) - (5 x age) + 5

= (4.536 x 160 lbs) + (15.88 x 75 inches) - (5 x 40) + 5

= (725.76) + (1191) - (200) +5

= (1716.76) + 5

BMR = 1,721.76

A. 1720.90

B. 1730.91

C. 1721.76

D. 1730.92

Using the Harris-Benedict Equation, find the BMR formula for men, 42 years old with a height of
5ft 6 inches and a weight of 180lbs. sedentary lifestyle.

Given:

Age = 42 years old, sedentary lifestyle

Height = 5ft 6 inches/ 66 inches

Weight = 180lbs
Solution:

BMR = 66.47 + (6.24 x weight in lbs) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.755 x age)

= 66.47 + (6.24 x 180 lbs) + (12.7 x 66 inches) - (6.755 x 42)

= 66.47 + (1,123.2 ) + (838.2) - (283.71)

= 66.47 + 1677.69

BMR = 1,744.16

A. 1990

B. 1992

C. 1991

D. 1989

WHR (ME) = WAIST/ HIP

= 63.5 cm/ 84 cm

= 0.756 or 0.76 (low health risk)

WHR (BROTHER) = WAIST/ HIP

= 66 cm/79 cm

= 0.835 or 0.84 (low health risk)

WHR (FATHER) = WAIST/ HIP

= 89 cm/104 cm

= 0.856 or 0. 86 (low health risk)
