                                According to the World Health Organization, resting energy expenditure (REE) accounts for 60–70% of an individual's total daily calorie burn. Understanding and measuring your REE, or the number of calories your body burns at rest, is a powerful tool for weight management, athletic performance, and overall health optimization.
