Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The basal metabolic rate (BMR)is the energy needed to maintain life-sustaining activities for a specific period of time at rest.The resting energy expenditure (REE),or resting metabolic rate,is the amount of energy an individual needs to consume over a 24-hour period for the body to maintain all of its internal working activities while at rest.Nutrients are the elements necessary for body processes and function.Nutrient density is the proportion of essential nutrients to the number of kilocalories.High-nutrient density foods provide a large number of nutrients in relation to kilocalories.
