With respect to chamber size, assessment of chamber enlargement is optimally performed with measurements indexed to body size. 1 As cardiac CT is a relatively young technology, however, there are few published studies that quantify CT measurements for the assessment of cardiac morphology and function.
Women in their 20s have the highest average caloric intake, at 1,949 calories per day. In their 30s, women eat a little less, taking in about 1,831 calories a day, and their daily caloric intake continues to drop as they age.
As a rough guide, a small female doing less than an hour of exercise each day will require just 1400 to 1600 calories each day, while an average male will need just 1800 to 2200 calories per day. Based on this for sustainable weight loss, women will generally respond well to any dietary regimen based on 1200 to 1400 calories and a male 1600 to 1800 calories per day. While this may sound a lot of calories, the truth is once you keep a strict log of the calories you consume, you will see how easy it is to eat more than this on an average day.
