Find Out Your Resting Metabolic Rate
When you’re trying to lose weight, knowing your resting metabolic rate (RMR) is an important piece of the puzzle.
Your body converts what you eat and drink into energy it can use through the process of metabolism. Your RMR represents the number of calories your body uses to do its ongoing work, such as circulating blood, repairing cells and breathing. Your body’s basic energy needs, measured in RMR, stay fairly consistent.
Information regarding your resting metabolic rate will help you determine your caloric requirement to maintain weight or lose weight.
Using your RMR as a baseline and your level of physical activity, we partner with you to create a personalized plan for you to safely reach and maintain your desired weight.
ReeVue™ Technology Precisely Measures Resting Metabolic Rate
At Premier Weight Loss Solutions, we are able to take precise measurements of your unique resting metabolic rate using ReeVue technology, considered to be the gold standard for measuring RMR. This advanced technology is used by research-grade metabolic testing devices.
We know there is a direct link between the oxygen your body uses and the calories you burn. The ReeVue device directly measures your oxygen use, enabling us to calculate your personal RMR.
To perform this simple test, you will sit comfortably and breathe into the ReeVue mouthpiece for about 10 minutes. You should not exercise before your test, nor should you eat or take stimulants like caffeine for four hours before the test.
This oxygen uptake test provides valuable insights for anyone concerned with weight management. It can especially benefit those on a medical weight loss program, as well as those who have had weight loss surgery and are working to reach their weight goals. It can also be useful for individuals at a healthy weight who want to know their resting metabolic rate.
