How much energy should you consume for your body type each day?
For our second annual Body+Soul Health of the Nation report, we surveyed more than 3100 Australians about their food and fitness habits, along with the health and wellness issues that concern them most. And it turns out, many Aussies are confused about which health advice they should follow, and what they should leave behind.
So allow us to help you.
Use the calculator below, developed based on methodologies used by the Mayo Clinic and World Health Organisation, to find out your daily energy requirements, based on your total expenditure levels.
