Resting Metabolic Rate Assessment

Service Description

Ever wonder how many calories your body uses just to keep you alive—even when you're doing absolutely nothing (which accounts for around 50-80% of Total Daily Energy Expenditure!)? That’s your Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR), and it’s the foundation of your metabolism. With our mobile indirect calorimetry test, you can now measure your RMR quickly, comfortably, and accurately—no lab visit required. During the Test: Comfort: You will be in a relaxed, seated or laying position. Most people find the procedure comfortable, though you may feel slightly warm from the mask. Monitoring: Your respiratory gases will be monitored for a period of time to determine your oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production. Breathing: Simply breathe normally and naturally. Do not try to adjust your breathing pattern. **Following your booking confirmation, you will be emailed a consent form, testing instructions, and testing information sheet for your review! You may contact us at any time to discuss and review these forms.** Please see "Terms and Conditions" prior to appointment.
