Daily Calories

According to latest researches recommended daily calorie intakes to maintain a healthy weight, laid down 20 years ago, have been slightly on the low side.



In 1991 the Committee on the Medical Aspects of Food Policy (COMA) set out that the average man should be eating 2,550 calories daily, and the average woman 1,940.

After lengthy consultation, those have now been raised slightly - by a frugal 55 calories for men, but a comparatively generous 139 calories for women.
