Question

How many kilocalories of energy would you expect a person in contemporary England to consume daily (including food, transportation, household use, etc.)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The calories you eat are technically kilocalories, so typically you eat a couple thousand a day

Answer 2

Answer:

That person would need thousands of calories a day.

Explanation:

The ideal amount of daily calories is different for each individual. Factors such as height, age, gender, muscle mass, daily activities, etc. influence the basal caloric expenditure of the organism. However, the number of calories a person needs to consume per day is always measured over one thousand calories. That is, no matter if you live in England or Africa, that person will need to consume thousands of calories a day to stay healthy. Usually the ideal amount of calories a person in normal health should consume is around 2000 - 2200 calories per day.
