How many calories should I eat per day?
Daily calorie needs vary based on age, gender, weight, height, and activity level. Generally, women need 1600-2400 calories, men need 2000-3000 calories. Use this calculator for a personalized estimate.
How many calories should I cut to lose weight?
For healthy weight loss, aim for a deficit of 500-1000 calories per day, which results in losing 0.5-1 kg per week. Never go below 1200 calories (women) or 1500 calories (men) without medical supervision.
Do all calories count the same?
While total calories matter for weight management, the quality of calories affects health. Prioritize nutrient-dense foods like vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains over empty calories from processed foods.
