Discussion: Is it advisable for autoimmune patients to use calculators that estimate the recommended daily calorie intake?

For patients with autoimmune diseases, I recommend not focusing on how many calories are consumed but on how anti-inflammatory your diet is. That is why it is essential to know the principles of proper nutrition.

Calculators online give an estimate of the recommended daily caloric intake. Calculators consider weight, height, age, and gender. It is essential to know that the numerical result is no more than a "Rule of thumb" because not all calories are the same. Significant differences exist in whether the food is processed and industrialized or natural. The hours we eat have additional meaning. At night, the calories are worth more! Think of a relatively small deviation of 5% and translate it into weight; you will see that the gaps are enormous over time.
