Answer 1

It varies based on a variety of factors (age, gender, weight, height, body type, muscle mass, amount of body fat, activity level, ect.), but, on average, for an adult, probably about 1,600 to 1,800 calories a day for a female and about 1,800 calories a day for a male.

Answer 2

Adults should consume 55% of their total calories from carbohydrates, 20% percent from fat, and 15 percent from protein. Carbohydrate intake: For 55% of the calorie intake of 1886.88 - 2149.61: 1037.78 - 1182.26 should comprise of carbohydrate foods. 1037.78 divided by 1886.88 x 100 = 55% Fat intake: For 20% of the calorie intake of 1886.88 - 2149.61: 377.38 - 429.92 calories should comprise of fats. Example:377.38 divided by 1886.88 x 100 = 20% Protein intake: For 15% of the calorie intake of 1886.88 - 2149.61: 283.03 - 322.44 calories should comprise of protein. 283.03 divided by 1886.88 x 100 = 15% Recommended Daily Intake is between 1886.88 - 2149.61 calories

Answer 3

A 25 year old female who currently weights 130 and is 5'2'' needs approximately 1290 to survive. This is the basal metabolic rate (according to a calculator I've found. The calculator tends to be fairly accurate from what I've read). Calorie intake will vary depending on male or female, active or nonactive, age, how much you currently weight and so on.

Answer 4

The answer will vary depending on if you are male or female, how much you weigh, your age, and how active you are.

For example, a 5'4" female weighing 126 pounds, who is moderately active, should have about 2,200 calories per day if she is from age 19 to 25; about 2,000 calories if she is age 26 to 50; and about 1800 calories after age 50.
