Basal Metabolism
Basal metabolism is the amount of energy the body uses to maintain vital functions, such as breathing, keeping the body warm, and keeping the heart beating. Even while rest, this basal metabolism consumes a significant amount of energy in a 24-hour day.
60% - 70% of daily energy use is for basal metabolism. The total amount of energy burned by the body in a typical day is as follows.
Basal metabolism = Energy required to maintain vital functions
Daily activity metabolism = Energy used for daily activities such as commuting to work, work, household chores, hobbies, etc.
Diet-induced thermo genesis = Energy emitted after eating a meal.
The ratio of these is 60%-70% for basal metabolism, 20%-30% for daily activity, and 10% for Diet-induced thermo genesis. This means that basal metabolism accounts for most of our daily energy consumption. If our daily food intake exceed amount of energy required for these activities, the additional energy is stored as fat.
Basal metabolism reduces as we get older Basal metabolism level peaks in late teens and then gradually reduces over the years. This leads to reductions in the body's functions as we get older and in particular, it is one of the main causes for muscle reduction as we get older.
Even when not being used to move parts of the body, muscles burn energy throughout the day to generate heat for the body and is part of the basal metabolism. As the amount of muscle decreases, so does the amount of energy burned. If people continue to eat the same amount of food as when they are younger, then they develop "middle-age spread".
In order to avoid this, it is important to know your basal metabolism and maintain muscles through exercise.

Take Note: Doodling Can Help Memory
By HealthDay - Fri Feb 27, 4:03 PM PST
FRIDAY, Feb. 27 (HealthDay News) -- You might look like you're not paying attention when you doodle, but science says otherwise.
Researchers in the United Kingdom found that test subjects who doodled while listening to a recorded message had a 29 percent better recall of the message's details than those who didn't doodle. The findings were published in Applied Cognitive Psychology.
"If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull telephone conversation, they may start to daydream," study researcher Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology at the University of Plymouth, said in a news release issued by the journal's publisher. "Daydreaming distracts them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A simple task, like doodling, may be sufficient to stop daydreaming without affecting performance on the main task."
For the experiment, a two-and-a-half minute listing of several people's names and places was played for test subjects, who were charged with writing down only the names of the people said to be attending a party. During the recording, half the participants were asked to simultaneously shade in shapes on a piece of paper without attention to neatness. Participants were not told they were taking part in a memory test.
When the recording ended, all were asked for the eight names of those attending the party as well as eight place names mentioned in the audio. Those asked to doodle wrote down, on average, 7.5 names and places, while those who didn't doodle listed only 5.8.
"In psychology, tests of memory or attention will often use a second task to selectively block a particular mental process," Andrade said. "If that process is important for the main cognitive task, then performance will be impaired. My research shows that beneficial effects of secondary tasks, such as doodling, on concentration may offset the effects of selective blockade."
In everyday life, Andrade said, doodling "may be something we do because it helps to keep us on track with a boring task, rather than being an unnecessary distraction that we should try to resist doing."
