The Elimination Calculator helps users estimate their daily basal metabolic rate, calorie needs, urine output, bowel movements, and total water loss based on their weight, height, age, gender, activity level, and water intake.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Elimination Calculator
The Elimination Calculator is a tool that helps you determine various health metrics based on your personal inputs. Follow these steps to use the calculator effectively.
Step 1: Enter Personal Information
- Weight (kg): Input your weight in kilograms. The acceptable range is between 30 kg and 300 kg. Ensure your entry is valid and uses increments of 0.1 kg.
- Height (cm): Input your height in centimeters. The valid range for height is between 100 cm and 250 cm. Make sure to use whole numbers.
- Age: Enter your age. You must be between 18 and 120 years old, and valid inputs are in whole numbers.
- Gender: Select your gender from the options provided: Male or Female.
Step 2: Specify Your Activity Level
- Select your Activity Level from the dropdown menu. The options available are:
- Sedentary (little or no exercise): 1.2
- Lightly active (light exercise 1-3 days/week): 1.375
- Moderately active (moderate exercise 3-5 days/week): 1.55
- Very active (hard exercise 6-7 days/week): 1.725
- Extra active (very hard exercise & physical job): 1.9
Step 3: Input Daily Water Intake
- Daily Water Intake (L): Enter the amount of water you consume daily in liters. The input should be between 0.5 L and 10 L using increments of 0.1 L.
Step 4: Interpret the Results
- The calculator will compute your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is the number of calories your body needs at rest.
- It will then provide your Daily Calorie Needs, which include calories required for your activity level.
- Your Estimated Daily Urine Output will be calculated based on your water intake.
- Expect an estimation of your Average Daily Bowel Movements, expressed in times per day.
- Lastly, you’ll see a figure for Total Daily Water Loss, represented in liters.
