Detailed explanation-1: -Definition. Energy expenditure refers to the amount of energy an individual uses to maintain essential body functions (respiration, circulation, digestion) and as a result of physical activity.
Detailed explanation-2: -Energy expenditure is the sum of the basal metabolic rate (the amount of energy expended while at complete rest), the thermic effect of food (TEF, the energy required to digest and absorb food) and the energy expended in physical activity.
Detailed explanation-3: -Resting energy expenditure (REE) represents energy expenditure while a person lies quietly awake in an interprandial state; under these conditions, approximately 1 kcal/kg body weight is consumed/hour in healthy adults.
Detailed explanation-4: -Basal metabolic rate is the energy expended by an individual at rest (when fasted and at thermoneutral temperature), as a result of normal cell and organ function within the body, and accounts for approximately 60–75% of total daily energy expenditure in individuals with a sedentary occupation.
