## Frequently asked questions

### What formula do you use?

Mifflin-St Jeor, the most used in consultation to estimate basal metabolism, multiplied by a factor according to your activity.

### Why does protein go per kilo of weight?

Because the need for protein depends on your body mass and your goal, not a fixed percentage of calories.

### Do you save my data?

No. The calculation is done in your browser and is not sent to any server.

### How do I use the result in YouMealPlan?

Set these calories and macros as a daily goal in the app and you'll see if your weekly menu fits together.
