Base Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the minimum energy expenditure required to maintain vital physiological functions at rest, such as respiration and circulation, in a fasting, thermoneutral state. Clinically, BMR guides nutritional and metabolic assessments, influencing energy requirements in illness or weight management. Altered BMR is associated with conditions like hyperthyroidism, which increases metabolic demand.
