<p>An improved health management system for a person is disclosed, in which the person's resting metabolic rate (RMR) is determined at intervals using an indirect calorimeter (10). RMR values are used in setting and revising goals in, for example, a weight control program. The effects of a weight control program on RMR can hence be compensated for, which enables an improved weight control program to be developed. In one embodiment, the person is provided with a portable electronic device (52), for use as a caloric intake calculator, caloric expenditure calculator, and caloric balance calculator.</p> |
