Basal Metabolic Rate Description

Basal Metabolic Rate is the minimal caloric requirement that we need to sustain life in a resting individual. Let's look at some factors that affect BMR: ￭ Age: In youth, the BMR is higher; age brings less lean mass and slows the BMR. ￭ Height: Tall, thin people have higher BMR's. ￭ Growth: Children and pregnant women have higher BMR's. ￭ Body Composition: The more lean tissue, the higher the BMR. The more fat tissue, the lower the BMR. ￭ Fever: Fevers can raise the BMR. ￭ Stress: Stress hormones can raise the BMR. ￭ Environmental Temperature: Both the heat and cold raise the BMR. ￭ Fasting/Starvation: Fasting/starvation hormones lower the BMR. ￭ Malnutrition: Malnutrition lowers the BMR. ￭ Thyroxin: The thyroid hormone thyroxin is a key BMR regulator; the more thyroxin produced, the higher the BMR.
