 Formula referencing a simplified method to estimate ideal daily calorie needs for moderate activity:


Formula:


(0.45 × body weight in lbs) + 25–50% of that result

This assumes:


0.45 × weight estimates basal energy needs


Adding 25–50% covers energy for moderate activity


---


Example (for a 160 lb person):


1. 0.45 × 160 = 72 calories (base per hour)


2. Multiply by 24 hours:

72 × 24 = 1,728 calories (baseline)


3. Add 25–50% for activity:


25%: 1,728 + 432 = 2,160 calories/day


50%: 1,728 + 864 = 2,592 calories/day


Estimated calorie needs = 2,160–2,592 kcal/day for moderate activity
