      • Energy is constantly required for movement, even when sleeping.
      • Energy is measured in kilocalories (kcal) or kilojoules (kJ).
      • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the minimum energy requirement when resting.
      • BMR varies based on age, gender, height, body composition, and energy expenditure.
      • Energy balance is the equilibrium between energy intake and expenditure.
      • Maintaining a healthy weight requires balancing energy intake and expenditure.
    • Lesson 2: A balanced diet and the Macronutrients
      • The Eatwell Guide provides a visual representation of a healthy balanced diet.
      • It emphasizes the importance of consuming from each of the 5 food groups in the right proportion.
