the basal metabolic rate of the body is controlled by the hormones t3 and t4 produced by the thyroid gland in response to the thyroid stimulating hormone tsh produced by the anterior pituitary
Basal metabolism is the energy expended for cellular and tissue processes that ensure the maintenance of life. The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is measured under standard conditions in which the individual is at rest in a thermoneutral environment after a 12-to 18-hour fast (DUBOIS, 1936; BENEDICT, 1938).he decline in basal metabolism relative to body weight is secondary to the differential in growth rates of organs with high metabolic rates (i.e., brain, liver, heart, and kidney) relative to those with lower metabolic rates (i.e., muscle and fat) (HOLLIDAY, 1971, 1986) (Table 2).
