У амбулаторных пациентов ***расчетная физиологическая потребность организма в энергии (Estimated Energy Requirement, EER)*** составляет приблизительно 1,3 от основного обмена (Basal Energy Expenditure, BEE).

Estimated Energy Requirement (EER) is the average dietary energy intake that is predicted to maintain energy balance in healthy, normal weight individuals of a defined age, gender, weight, height, and level of physical activity consistent with good health. In children and pregnant and lactating women, the EER includes the needs associated with growth or secretion of milk at rates consistent with good health.

Basal Energy Expenditure (BEE, also called basal metabolic rate, BMR):
This is the energy needed to carry out fundamental metabolic functions, such as breathing, ion transport, normal turnover of enzymes and other body components, etc.
