The first online calorie counter appeared

The US National Institutes of Health has developed a new online calorie counter that allows you to individually calculate the required number of calories and distribute the intensity of physical activity for weight loss. This calorie counter, called the Body Weight Planner, was created back in 2011, but only recently became available to the general public.

To use the program, you must indicate standard parameters such as weight, gender, age and height, as well as your level of physical activity on a scale from 1.4 (sedentary lifestyle) to 2.5 (very active). In addition, the user is asked to indicate how much he wants to increase his physical activity as a percentage. After this, the program calculates the optimal number of calories to maintain weight, the number of calories that need to be consumed to achieve the goal in a certain time period, and the number of calories that need to be consumed to maintain the achieved result.

With Body Weight Planner, users can receive a personalized nutrition and workout plan that is tailored to their personal measurements and goals. This way, everyone can more effectively control their diet and choose the optimal level of physical activity.

For those who want to track their progress more meticulously, there is an advanced expert version of the calorie counter that shows weight changes down to tenths. It also provides more detailed information about the number of calories needed to achieve specific goals.

Thus, the emergence of a new online calorie counter is an important development in the field of healthy lifestyle and allows each person to individually control their diet and level of physical activity to achieve better results in losing weight and maintaining health.
