These calculators provide general estimates for informational and educational use. They do not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Speak with a qualified healthcare professional before making a significant change to your diet, activity, weight, or fluid intake.
Transparent by design
A calculator is most useful when its assumptions are visible. These tools use established screening equations, keep the language intentionally modest, and link to the underlying guidance.

Resting energy uses the Mifflin–St Jeor equation, then a selected activity factor estimates maintenance. Macro values are planning estimates and can flex around individual preferences.

The body-fat tool adapts the circumference method used in U.S. military body-composition screening. Tape measurements are sensitive to placement and are best used to follow a trend.

They are designed as general screening and planning tools for adults aged 20 and over. They are not suitable for children, teenagers, pregnancy, or anyone who has been given individual clinical nutrition or fluid advice.
No. Every calculation runs locally in your browser. The optional calorie-plan code is also created and decoded on your device; the inputs are not submitted to our server.
These tools use population equations and broad activity categories. Lab measurements, wearables, and clinical assessments use different inputs and assumptions, while real needs also change with health, training, body composition, medication, and environment.
Treat them as a starting point or a way to observe a trend. Avoid making a major diet, training, or hydration change from one estimate alone, especially if you have a medical condition or a history of disordered eating.
