meals should be taken 3 within a day and gapped by four to five
hours. Skipping breakfast might lead alteration in the body
producing enzymes that is used to digest food. Prolonged fasting

energy and lowered levels of nutrition within the body. Restricting
meals might lead eating more calories than desired throughout the
day.
c) How the basal metabolic rate (BMR) component of energy expenditure
relates to maintenance of the body, and whether it can/can’t operate
effectively on inadequate fueling
BMR component of energy maintains survival by regulating energy
intake and expenditure for maintaining body weight. In absence of
inadequate fuelling of energy BMR, cells might break down stored
fat in them for fuelling the systems for maintaining equilibrium.
Though it operates in case of not fuelling the system but the
imbalance might drive need for more energy and hence more food
cravings.
d) Ideas to encourage or adjust client’s current nutrition habits
In order to maintain n a health BMR and body weight it is necessary
that proper meals with time gaps are taken along with exercise.
Nutritional food has to form the basis of regular food intake
composing of a well-balanced diet as needed by the body.
