Total Energy Expenditure (TEE) |
The sum of the energy used for basal metabolism, activity, processing food, deposition of new tissue, and production of milk |
|
|
Basal Energy expenditure (BEE) |
The energy expended to maintain an awake resting body that is not digesting food
|
|
|
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) |
The rate of energy expenditure under resting condition. Two ways to measure BMR: 1. Ventilated Hood 2. Human calorimeter (Direct, heat; or indirect, oxygen use) |
|
|
Resting energy expenditure (REE) or Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) |
Terms used when an estimate of basal metabolism is determined by measuring energy utilization after 5-6 hours without food or exercise. |
|
|
lean body mass |
body mass attributed to nonfat body components such as bone, muscle, and internal organs. Also called fat-free mass. |
|
|
Bomb calorimeter |
an instrument used to determine the energy content of food. Measures the heat released when dry food is combusted. |
|
|
Energy Balance |
the amount of energy consumed in the diet compared with the amount expended by the body over a given period. |
|
|
obesity |
a condition characterized by excess body fat. It is defined as a body mass index of 30 kg/m^2 or greater |
|
|
overweight |
Being too heavy for one's height. Defined as having a body mass index of 25-29.9 kg/m^2 |
