💡 What Is Indirect Calorimetry?

Indirect calorimetry is the gold standard for measuring your metabolism. It calculates your REE — the number of calories your body needs at rest to maintain vital functions — and your RQ, which tells us whether your body is primarily burning fat or carbohydrates for energy.

This test is quick, non-invasive, and incredibly informative. It provides insight that generic calculators or fitness trackers simply can’t.
