Food: different needs depending on age

Calorie intake varies depending on the period of life, activity and weight of the person. Thus, for an infant, we suggest a contribution of more than 110 kcal per kg of weight during the first year (for comparison, the contribution, calculated in the same proportions for a man weighing 70 kilos, would be 7700 kcal).

Similarly, during pregnancy, the needs increase from 200 to 300 kcal per day from the second quarter, and are at their peak during the third quarter. As for the additional energy requirements caused by breastfeeding, it is estimated that they amount to more than 500 kcal per day.

Conversely, the needs decline with age, from forty years: and he must withdraw 5% and 10% (after sixty years) per decade of total calorie intake recommended.
