247384 Minimum caloric requirement (kcal/person/day)   The minimum daily energy (calorie) requirement – MDER – is the minimum amount of dietary energy per person that is considered adequate to meet the energy needs at a minimum acceptable BMI of an individual engaged in low physical activity. If referring to an entire population, the MDER is the weighted average of the minimum energy requirements of the different demographic groups – this means it accounts for differences in requirement depending on age, sex, BMI and other factors. 2022-02-04 09:25:55 2023-06-15 05:05:42       Minimum and average caloric requirements (UN FAO) 5494 Minimum and average caloric requirements (UN FAO) 21310
